Step 3: Combine the Chocolate Mixture

Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar-egg mixture while whisking gently.
The batter will turn silky and dark. Mix until fully combined.

Step 4: Add the Dry Ingredients

In a small bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Sift or sprinkle them into the chocolate mixture.

Use a spatula to fold everything together.
The batter should be thick—somewhere between a brownie batter and cookie dough.

If you want extra chocolate chips or nuts, fold them in now.

Step 5: Let the Batter Rest

This is a small but important step.

Let the dough rest for 10–15 minutes at room temperature.
This allows it to thicken enough to scoop and helps the cookies keep their shape.

Step 6: Scoop the Cookies

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Scoop tablespoons of dough onto the sheet, leaving space between each cookie for spreading.

Tip: Sprinkle a few chocolate chips or a pinch of sea salt on top for extra flair.

Step 7: Bake

Bake for 8–10 minutes, just until:

• the tops look shiny and crackly
• the edges look set
• the centers still appear soft

Do not overbake—this is how you keep that fudgy center!

Step 8: Cool and Enjoy

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5–10 minutes before moving them.
They’ll firm up as they cool but stay incredibly fudgy inside.

Serve warm for an ultra-gooey experience, or let them fully cool for a chewy brownie-like texture.

🍪 Why These Cookies Are So Irresistible

• They combine the best parts of brownies and cookies.
• They use real melted chocolate for deep flavor.
• Quick baking time keeps them soft and fudgy.
