Chocolate chip cookies are such a classic. These are one of my favorite cookies. So simple, delicious, tender and the chocolate is rich and tastes amazing.

This is a staple dessert in my home.

These are soft, tender and chewy. So good.

Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar (packed)

• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

• Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

• Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
• Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
• Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
• Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. The edges should be set, but the centers may look slightly underbaked.
