Decadent Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon whole milk
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup dark chocolate chunks

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Cream the Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat 1 cup of unsalted butter and 1 1/2 cups of packed brown sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

3. Add Wet Ingredients: Add in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and 2 large eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition until thoroughly combined.

4. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder.

5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix to ensure a tender cookie texture.

6. Add Milk: Pour in 1 tablespoon of whole milk to the cookie dough, and gently fold the dough until evenly moistened.

7. Fold in Chocolate: Using a spatula, fold in 1 cup of milk chocolate chips and 1 cup of dark chocolate chunks, ensuring an even distribution throughout the dough.

8. Portion the Cookies: Scoop the dough using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, and place onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie dough ball for spreading.

9. Bake the Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set, and the centers are still soft.

10. Cool and Serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Serve and enjoy your homemade decadent double chocolate chip cookies!
