Ingredients
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Sprinkles (for decoration, because why not?)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Get that oven cranked up to 350°F (175°C). We’re not here to play around; we want those cookies baked to perfection.
- Mix the Sugars: In a mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Give it a good mix until it’s well combined. No lumps, alright?
- Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the vanilla extract. Don’t just dump it in—measure it properly! Mix it together until it’s a lovely, smooth paste.
- Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and cocoa powder. Get some air in there! This is the foundation of your cookies.
- Combine: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir it like you mean it! Don’t overmix, but make sure everything is incorporated nicely.
- Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips. This is where the magic happens! Make sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Scoop and Bake: Using a tablespoon, scoop out the dough onto a lined baking sheet. Leave enough space between each scoop—these babies will spread!
- Sprinkle Time: Before popping them in the oven, add a few sprinkles on top. It’s not just for show; it adds a delightful crunch!
- Bake: Slide that baking sheet into the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes. Keep an eye on them! You want them golden around the edges and slightly soft in the middle.
- Cool Down: Once baked, let them cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Don’t touch them too soon; they need to set!
There you have it! Perfectly baked chocolate chip cookies that’ll bring comfort to anyone who takes a bite. Serve them warm, with a glass of milk, and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Now, get in that kitchen and make it happen!
