Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tsp instant espresso powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 4 oz chopped semi-sweet chocolate
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, cream together softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time along with vanilla extract, mixing well after each addition.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, baking soda, and salt before gradually adding it to the butter mixture.
  5. Gently fold in chopped semi-sweet chocolate and dark chocolate chips.
  6. Scoop dough portions onto prepared baking sheets, ensuring they are spaced at least two inches apart.
  7. Bake for about 10 minutes until edges are lightly golden; tap trays gently on the counter to flatten centers before reshaping if necessary.
  8. Return to the oven for an additional 3 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Let cool completely on the baking tray before sprinkling with sea salt.
