Chocolatey, chewy and delicious. These Double Chocolate Chip Cookies without Brown Sugar make the perfect decadent treat. Make in 30 minutes and serve with warm milk, tea or coffee.
Preheat oven to 160C/350F. Line a baking tray with non-stick parchment paper.
Whisk flour, baking soda and cocoa powder in a bowl and set aside for later.
Grab a medium-sized bowl. Whisk butter and sugar together for 3-5 minutes or until fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Then mix until just combined.
Add ⅓ of the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix with a spatula. Repeat this step with the remaining flour mixture, add chocolate chips and mix until just combined. Reserve 3-2 tablespoon of chocolate chips for later.
Use an ice cream scoop or tablespoon to scoop the dough, gently roll it into a ball and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat this step with the remaining dough and make sure there is enough space around each ball to prevent the cookies from sticking as they spread while baking. Press the reserved chocolate chips on top of the cookie dough balls.
Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes.
Remove them from the oven, let them cool for 5 minutes then place them on a cooling rack to cool completely. Serve as desired.
Notes
Cookie dough: Do not overmix the cookie dough as this will result in tough cookies. Mix the ingredients until they are just combined.
Dry ingredients: Sift all of the dry ingredients to remove lumps or dirt. This will also ensure that the cookie dough has the correct texture when combined with the wet ingredients.
Measuring scale: Using a weighing scale to weigh the ingredients for the best results.
