Step 1

Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC). Line baking sheets with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Set aside.

Step 2

In the mixer's bowl, cream the butter and both sugars until it becomes light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.

Step 3

Add one egg at a time and the vanilla, beating until incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this combination to the batter, beating at a low speed until just incorporated. Don't overmix it. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Step 5

Make portions of 1 tablespoon each, rolling the dough between your hands and placing them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Press them lightly with the palm of your hand.

Step 6

Bake for 8 to 9 minutes or until you see that it's not shiny on top anymore. Don't overbake it. They will set as they rest on the baking sheet. Let them cool for about 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.Enjoy!
