Description

Rich, fudgy cookies that combine the texture of brownies with the delightful crispness of cookies, featuring a molten chocolate center.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 200 g dark chocolate
  • 120 g unsalted butter
  • 100 g granulated sugar
  • 100 g soft light brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 150 g plain flour
  • 25 g cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • Flaky salt, for sprinkling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two large baking trays with baking paper.
  2. In a medium pot, melt dark chocolate and unsalted butter over medium heat, stirring until smooth. Alternatively, use a microwave for melting, ensuring not to overheat.
  3. Set the mixture aside to cool slightly.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on high speed for about 5 minutes until it lightens in color and doubles in volume.
  5. Pour in the cooled chocolate-butter mixture, gently folding until just combined.
  6. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Fold until you can no longer see any flour; be careful not to overmix.
  7. Transfer the batter into a piping bag or use an ice cream scoop to form 8 mounds on the lined trays, leaving space for spreading.
  8. Bake for approximately 18-20 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers remain soft.
  9. Optional: Sprinkle flaky salt on top while still warm.
  10. Allow the cookies to cool on the tray for about 20 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to five days. Unbaked mounds can be frozen for up to three months.
