Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chunks or chips
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven: to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream the butter and sugars: In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer or a wooden spoon to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla extract and egg yolk until well combined.
- Combine the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Fold in the dark chocolate chunks or chips.
- Form the cookies: Divide the dough into two equal portions. Shape each portion into a large ball and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them well apart as they will spread.
- Bake the cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly underbaked. This will give the cookies a soft, chewy texture.
- Cool and enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely (or enjoy warm for a gooey treat).
- Indulge in these massive, chocolate-loaded cookies, perfect for satisfying any sweet tooth!
