Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla extract, stirring until fully integrated.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, folding gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in chocolate chunks or chips into the batter gently.
  6. Using a cookie scoop, place balls of dough onto the baking sheet, leaving space between each.
  7. Optionally top each dough ball with additional chocolate chips and flaky salt.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are set but the centers are slightly soft.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
