Say "mmm" to Dark Chocolate
Personally, I am not a fan of milk chocolate. Dark chocolate just has so much more of a classier taste to me, and a bite which my mouth waters over. This is the perfect recipe when you are thinking "I want something chocolate". But be careful... you don't want to end up snacking on the whole batch!
Dark Chocolate Cookies
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups of dark chocolate pieces (I use 72% Cacao Dark Chocolate from Trader Joe's)
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Whisk together flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
Cream together butter and sugar with an electric mixer until appears pale, then beat in eggs and vanilla until well combined. Add flour mixture in 2 batches and mix just until combined. Finally break up the chocolate in chunks and stir in the pieces. If dough is too soft, chill in the refrigerator a couple hours before baking.
Use a small ice cream scoop and scoop dough onto greased baking sheets. Let cook until puffy and set, but still soft... about 10-12 minutes. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack and Enjoy!
