Bakery Style Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

When you need a cookie that’s large and in charge and tastes like a brownie? I have your back! There’s something about a thick, gooey chocolate cookie that speaks to me. It’s comfort food at its best.

It’s my birthday tomorrow!! Um, I’m turning 32 and I’m still not sure how I feel about this. If you’ve followed me here for a while, you know I love to celebrate my birthday with chocolate treats. Examples: here & here.

Let’s be honest, I don’t just celebrate my birthday with chocolate, I think most occasions call for chocolate or tacos, but we’ll leave the taco conversation is for a different day.

This year, instead of another chocolate cake, we are living on the wild side and going straight to a recipe I’ve wanted to have in my back pocket (and kitchen) for years.

Let’s dive into the 3 main parts of these cookies:

CHOCOLATE

  • Cocoa powder and 2+ types of chocolate chips. Using different types of chocolate gives a depth to the chocolate flavor.
  • I used a combination of dark and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Lots of chips = lots of melty chocolate.

BIG

  • Bigger cookies = more gooey chocolate
  • You need 1/4 cup of dough for each cookie, that’s about 2.5 ounces. Yep, we’re pulling out all of the stops.

CHILL THAT DOUGH

  • Repeat with me “chilling prevents spreading.” And when you are looking for thick cookies, it’s especially important.
  • We are going to chill the dough twice. First, I chilled the dough for 2-4 hours. Then after measuring and rolling the dough, you need another 5-minute chill.
