Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon red food coloring (or more for desired color)
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add vanilla extract and red food coloring to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture while mixing on low speed. Mix until just combined.
- Fold in the mini chocolate chips with a spatula until evenly distributed.
- (Optional) Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes for a firmer texture.
- Scoop the dough into small servings using a cookie scoop or tablespoon and serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge.
Notes
- Heat-treat flour by baking at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes to make it safe to eat raw.
- For a vegan version, substitute butter with coconut oil and use plant-based sugars and chocolate chips.
- Customize with white chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or food coloring variations for themed treats.
- Can be frozen for up to 3 months in portioned scoops and thawed before serving.
