Description
Soft, fudgy cookies filled with molten chocolate goodness, perfect for chocolate lovers.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 12–15 small chocolate truffles (or pieces of dark chocolate)
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and butter together in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth. Slowly add the melted chocolate mixture and whisk until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a thick dough forms.
- Cover the dough and refrigerate for 30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough and flatten it in your hand. Place a chocolate truffle or piece of dark chocolate in the center, then wrap the dough around it to form a ball, ensuring the chocolate is fully enclosed.
- Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still appear soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Enjoy warm to experience the molten chocolate center!
Notes
Make sure not to overbake the cookies for a soft center. Use high-quality chocolate for better flavor.
