Tips for the Best Chocolate Cookies

– Use the Right Chocolate: There are so many options when it comes to chocolate (semi-sweet, bittersweet, unsweetened, etc.) it can be hard to choose which type will be the best! Opt for the best ingredients you can find, a good unsweetened cocoa powder (i use this one!), semi-sweet chocolate chips, and quality unsweetened chocolate bar for baking (like this one!) can make a world of difference.

– Don’t Overmix: Once you add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mix until just combined. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies, and we want them to be soft and chewy.

– Scoop Evenly: Use a cookie scoop or a spoon to portion the dough into equal-sized mounds. This ensures that all the cookies bake uniformly.

– Top it off: For an extra gooey chocolate touch, top the rolled out cookie dough with more chocolate chips before putting them in the oven

– Timing is Everything: Keep a close eye on the cookies while they bake, since thee cookies are meant to be rich and gooey, you want to avoid over baking them.

Bake the Cookies

Using a 2 oz cookie scoop, scoop the cookies onto the baking sheets, leaving about 1 ½ inches of space between them. Bake for 8-10 minutes at 350ºF.
