idk what to write here so here's a recipe on baking chocolate cookies:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream the Butter and Sugars:
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- This usually takes about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed.
- Add the Eggs and Vanilla:
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
- Mix in the vanilla extract.
- Mix the Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Add the Chocolate Chips:
- Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed.
- Shape the Cookies:
- Use a tablespoon or cookie scoop to drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
- The cookies will continue to cook slightly on the baking sheet after you remove them from the oven.
- Cool:
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
