Here’s a recipe for deliciously fudgy cookies:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Optional: additional chocolate chips, nuts, or sprinkles for topping
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate chips together in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth. Alternatively, you can melt them together in a double boiler on the stove.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar mixture, stirring until smooth.
- In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie for spreading.
- If desired, press additional chocolate chips, nuts, or sprinkles onto the tops of the cookies.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft and slightly underbaked.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these rich and fudgy cookies with a glass of milk or a cup of coffee for an indulgent treat!
