How to Make Easy Chocolate Buttery Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  6. Bake for 7-9 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Once cooled, unleash your creativity! Decorate with sprinkles, frosting, chocolate chips, or leave them plain for a classic treat.
