Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon milk (optional, for consistency)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats to prevent sticking.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat on medium speed until well combined (about 1-2 minutes).
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Divide the dough in half. In one half, add the cocoa powder and mix until fully incorporated. If too dry, add a tablespoon of milk.
- In the other half of the dough, fold in the semi-sweet and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Using a cookie scoop, take a scoop of chocolate dough and a scoop of vanilla dough. Place them together and gently press them into a ball.
- Space the cookie balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Optionally, press a few extra chocolate chips into the tops.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week or freeze for up to three months.
