How to Make Those Chocolate Cookies
- Place a medium metal bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water. Add 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips, 4 ounces of unsweetened chocolate, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate and butter are almost completely melted. Remove from heat.
- Continue to stir until the chocolate and butter are fully melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- In a large bowl, beat 2 large eggs and 1 cup granulated sugar with an electric mixer for approximately 10 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder (optional) to the egg mixture. Beat for an additional 2 minutes.
- Gradually stir in the melted chocolate mixture until evenly combined. Then, gently fold in the flour mixture until just incorporated.
- Gently fold in 2 cups of chocolate chips.
- Refrigerate the cookie dough for at least 20-25 minutes to firm up.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of chilled cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. The cookies may appear cracked and shiny on top.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store leftover cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer to maintain freshness.
