Total Time: 25

Servings: 36 cookies

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter - softened
1 cup white granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
4 baker's chocolate squares - semi-sweet
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ¼ cups all purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup chocolate chips - semi-sweet

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, ½ tsp baking soda, 1 tsp baking powder, and ¼ tsp salt to a medium bowl. Mix and set aside. This is your dry ingredients mixture.
In a separate bowl melt 4 baker's chocolate squares in the microwave. Heat in 30-second increments until the chocolate has melted through. Set aside.
Add 1 cup unsalted room-temperature butter to a separate bowl with 1 cup white granulated sugar and 1 cup brown sugar. Cream with a hand mixer for 2 minutes. This will force air into the mixture making it light and fluffy providing structure to your baked goods.
Add 2 eggs and mix.
Add the melted chocolate squares, and 2 tsp vanilla extract and mix again.
Add ½ of the dry ingredients mixture and mix.
Add the last half of your dry ingredients mixture, and mix again. The batter will be thick and you might need to stir by hand for the last part.
Fold 1 cup chocolate chips into the dough using a spatula.
Drop 1 tablespoon of dough onto the baking sheet leaving a 2" space between each cookie allowing room to expand. This recipe makes about 36 cookies so you'll need multiple baking sheets.
Bake the cookies for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, this completes the baking process.
Using a thin spatula transfer the soft cookies to a rack to cool completely. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes:

Cookies can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge or the counter for up to one week.

These cookies also freeze well! This is my favorite way to store cookies and muffins! Just add to a freezer bag and seal tightly removing as much air as possible.
