Not sure where I originally found this recipe but it has been a staple in my household. Whenever we're in the mood for cookies I whip these up. They're very easy, bake quickly, and composed of ingredients that you likely already have on hand.

Ingredients For perfect chocolate cookie

  • 2 stick
    butter
  • 1 c
    sugar
  • 1
    egg
  • 2 1/4 c
    flour
  • 2 tsp
    baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp
    salt
  • 1/3 c
    cocoa powder
  • splash of milk
  • milk and/or white chocolate bars not chips

How To Make perfect chocolate cookie

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees (F).
  • 2
    Dice up the chocolate bars into smaller pieces. Set aside.
  • 3
    Mix butter and sugar. Add the egg. Mix well. Add in all dry ingredients & mix. This should be a really thick sticky batter. Add a dash of milk, to thin it out ever so slightly. Add in all the chocolate pieces, and stir to incorporate.
  • 4
    Roll cookies into balls and place on a parchment lined cookie sheet. These cookies are meant to be big, but you can make them any size you'd like.
  • 5
    Bake for EXACTLY 11 minutes. Baking time is crucial for this recipe. Note: They will not look done when you take them out. Remove from oven and allow to cool sufficiently. If the cookies are not properly cooled they will fall apart.
  • Last Step: Don't forget to share! Make all your friends drool by posting a picture of your finished recipe on your favorite social network. And don't forget to tag Just A Pinch and include #justapinchrecipes so we can see it too!
