Ingredients
¾cupunsalted buttersoftened to room temperature (170 grams)
Allow butter to soften to room temperature and measure out all ingredients.
Preheat oven to 350° F.
Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt with a metal whisk. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium high speed until light and creamy, for about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each. Add the vanilla.
Next add flour mixture and mix on low speed until just combined, adding chocolate chips towards the end of the mixing process.
Use a large 3 TBSP cookie scoop to portion dough evenly. Roll into balls and place on a plate or small baking pan. Chill in the fridge for 15 minutes prior to baking for the perfect cookie thickness.
Ready to bake? Arrange cookies on parchment lined cookie sheet, spaced about 2.5 inches apart. Bake for 11 minutes.
For the ultimate chocolate chip ratio and pretty presentation, press extra chocolate chips into the cookies once removed from oven and sprinkle with (optional) flaked sea salt. Allow to cool on the cookie sheet for 4-5 minutes then transfer to a wire cooling rack to fully cool.
Repeat with remaining cookie dough *OR* place plate/pan remaining dough balls in the freezer and transfer to an airtight container or baggie once frozen. Bake from frozen at 350°F for 11-12 minutes.
Leftover baked cookies are chewy and delicious! Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days. Enjoy!
