Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Mix dry ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder until well combined.

  3. 3

    Cream butter and sugars

    In another bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

  4. 4

    Add wet ingredients

    Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, mixing until well combined.

Combining Ingredients

  1. 5

    Combine wet and dry

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

  2. 6

    Fold in add-ins

    Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts (if using) until evenly distributed.

Baking

  1. 7

    Scoop dough

    Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

  2. 8

    Bake cookies

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.

  3. 9

    Cool cookies

    Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
