Let’s Get These Cookies Poppin'
First things first, you gotta get your hands on the following ingredients:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Bakin’ Time
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
5. Gradually beat the dry mixture into the wet mixture until just combined.
6. Stir in the chocolate chips.
7. Use a cookie scoop or a spoon to form the dough into balls about the size of golf balls.
8. Place the dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet, flattening them slightly with your hand or a fork.
9. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
10. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
