Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon molasses
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, dark brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy. Mix in the egg, vanilla extract, and molasses.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually combine with the wet mixture until just mixed.
  4. Fold in chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  5. Roll dough into 1-inch balls and coat each ball with granulated sugar before placing them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  6. Bake for approximately 10 minutes; cookies should look slightly underbaked in the center.
  7. Allow cooling on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
