Indulge in these intensely chocolatey cookies with a perfect balance of sweetness and sea salt for a delightful treat.

Ingredients

dry ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa (use Cacao Barry Extra Brute for the most insanely chocolatey cookies ever)
  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 10 tbsp unsalted butter (room temperature)
  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups bittersweet chocolate (chopped into 1/2” chunks)
  • flaky sea salt for finishing (such as Maldon)

Instructions 

  • Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, and baking soda; set aside.
  • Cream butter, sugars, then add egg and vanilla until combined.
  • Mix in dry ingredients, then fold in chocolate chunks. Scoop dough into balls, sprinkle with flaky salt.
  • If resting dough, cover and chill; otherwise, preheat oven to 350°F and freeze until ready.
  • Bake until set, 15-18 minutes, then cool on a rack.

Notes

For extra flavor, sprinkle with flaky sea salt immediately after baking.
