Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Base

  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar No substitutes needed.
  • 3/4 cup Light Brown Sugar Can substitute with dark brown sugar for a deeper flavor.

Step‑by‑Step Instructions

  3. Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda in a separate bowl.
  4. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture until combined.
  5. Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Scoop balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2-3 inches apart.
