Cook time:
Total time:
Serves: 14 large cookies
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter - softened to room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg - at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 chocolate chips - I used milk chocolate
- 1/2 - 3/4 cup sprinkles - optional
- Using your mixer cream the butter for 30 seconds.
- Add both sugars to the butter and whip until light and fluffy.
- Mix in the egg and the vanilla extract until fully mixed.
- In a seperate bowl combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt and mix until combined.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to your wet ingredients on low speed until no flour remains - the batter will be thick.
- Using a spatula, hand mix in the milk - the batter will still be thick and sticky.
- Then mix in 1 cup of the chocolate chips.
- Scoop your dough into 3 tablespoon balls, chill on a parchment paper/silpat covered baking sheet for 2 hours.
- Heat your oven to 350 degrees and let the dough come to room temperature while the oven is heating up.
- Bake for 12 minutes, the cookies will look under cooked, they'll continue to cook while they're cooling on the baking sheet.
- Allow cookies to cook for 5 minutes before moving to a wire cooling rack.
- Add sprinkles to the top of your cookies once they've been removed from the oven.
- Store in an air tight container for up to a week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
- *Try mixing your sprinkles into your batter!
