Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1/4 pound unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 egg at room temperature
- 1/3 cup high-quality Dutch unsweetened cocoa
- 1 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 pounds good white chocolate, coarsely chopped (you can also use white chocolate chips)
- Optional: flaky sea salt topping
Instructions
- PREP: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- SIFT TOGETHER DRY INGREDIENTS: Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- CREAM BUTTER & SUGAR: Cream the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
- ADD VANILLA & EGGS: Add the vanilla, then the eggs, one at a time. Mix well.
- ADD COCOA: With the mixer on low, add the cocoa and mix again.
- ADD DRY INGREDIENTS: Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
- ADD THE CHOCOLATE: Fold in the chopped white chocolate. You might want to do this by hand with a spoon or spatula.
- CHILL THE COOKIE DOUGH: If the dough is too sticky to handle, you can chill it in the fridge for 30 minutes – 24 hours. This step is optional but does help your cookies turn out better (especially helps keep them from spreading).
- SCOOP DOUGH ON TO COOKIE SHEET: Use a 1-ounce/1.75-inch ice cream scoop or a rounded tablespoon to drop the dough onto your prepared baking sheet. Dampen your hands with water and slightly flatten the dough.
- BAKE: Bake for about 15 minutes. The edges should seem done, but the centers should seem underbaked.
- COOL: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
USE DUTCH UNSWEETENED COCOA: This recipe calls for high-quality Dutch unsweetened cocoa powder.
CHILL YOUR COOKIE DOUGH: This step is an optional step, but it will help ensure your cookies turn out great! It especially helps prevent spreading. It also helos with texture and flavor development.
