Chewy Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

Love chocolate and a lot of it? If so, you’re going to love these chewy and moist chocolate chocolate chip cookies! You can use chocolate chips or chocolate baking bits, whatever you have on hand and prefer to use. They’re sweet, but not overly-sweet. Just the right amount of sweetness for chocolate lovers like me.

Recipe will make approximately 36 to 42 cookies, depending on size. You can easily double the recipe for large families and/or bake sales. I like to bake double batches and then freeze some of the cookies for later use. Just thaw at room temperature when you’re ready to enjoy them.

Chewy Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 medium eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips or semi-sweet baking bits

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with non-stick baking spray or line with a non-stick silicone baking sheet.

In a large mixing bowl cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, eggs and vanilla extract.

In a large mixing bowl sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Gradually beat the flour mixture into your wet ingredients until everything is well combined. Use a large spoon to “hand stir in” the semi-sweet chocolate chips (or baking bits) until they’re well distributed throughout the batter.

Drop by a tablespoon onto your prepared baking sheet allowing 2″ between each cookie. They will expand a little bit during the baking process. Place baking sheets into a preheated 350 degree F. oven and bake for 8-10 minutes or until done. The center will spring back when touched.

Remove from oven and transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool. Once cool you’ll want to store them in an airtight container.
