- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened (113g)
- ½ cup light brown sugar (110g)
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar (66g)
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture and beat until combined.
- Gradually add the sifted flour mixture to the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Stir in the chocolate chips or chunks until evenly distributed.
Baking
- Scoop out about 1½ tablespoons of dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each.
- Bake for about 10 minutes, until the edges are firm and the centers are slightly underbaked.
- Cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
Notes
For best results, ensure butter is well-softened. Avoid overmixing the dough to keep cookies soft and chewy. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
