Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup white granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (add more if desired)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the cocoa powder, sugar, melted butter, and vegetable oil.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- Add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir the dry ingredients first before mixing them into the wet ingredients until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop equal-sized balls of dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Add Nuts: Incorporate chopped walnuts or pecans for added crunch.
- Use Different Chocolate Chips: Try using dark chocolate, milk chocolate, or white chocolate chips to vary the flavor.
- Add a Sprinkle of Sea Salt: A light sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking can enhance the chocolate flavor.
- Incorporate Dried Fruit: Add dried cherries or cranberries for a sweet and tart contrast.
- Make Sandwich Cookies: Spread a layer of chocolate ganache or peanut butter between two cookies for an indulgent treat.
