How to Make Chocolate Cookies
Step 1
Grab a medium bowl and blend the softened butter with the sugar until smooth and creamy. Then, crack in the egg and mix thoroughly. The mixture should become silkier and slightly glossier.
Step 2
Toss in the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Mix until it starts to come together into a dough. Don’t panic if it feels a bit crumbly at first, it will get better.
Step 3
Use your hands to bring the dough fully together. It should feel soft but not sticky. Now fold in the chocolate chips and distribute them like you’re hiding treasure.
Step 4
No need to chill! Scoop small portions of dough and roll them into balls.
Step 5
Place the dough balls on a lined baking tray, spaced out.
Step 6
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 15 minutes.
Step 7
Let them cool on the tray for a few minutes before serving.
