Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (50g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup (50g) packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 4 ounces (115g) bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, melted
  • 1 cup (170g) chocolate chunks or chips (mix of milk and dark chocolate)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk melted butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until smooth and glossy, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg and vanilla extract.
  4. Stir in melted bittersweet or semisweet chocolate until mixture is rich and shiny.
  5. Gradually fold dry ingredients into wet mixture using a spatula until just combined; do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in chocolate chunks or chips.
  7. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and chill dough for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours).
  8. Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls onto prepared baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are set and slightly firm but centers look soft and shiny. Check at 9 minutes if oven runs hot.
  10. Let cookies cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
  11. Serve slightly warm for best gooey texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Notes

Chilling the dough is essential to prevent spreading and keep centers gooey. Melt chocolate gently to avoid burning. Watch baking time closely; cookies should look slightly underdone in the center for gooeyness. Use good-quality chocolate for best flavor and texture. Avoid overmixing to keep cookies tender.
