Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
Tip: Make sure to sift the dry ingredients for an even texture.

In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
Tip: Don't overmix – the cookies should still have a bit of texture.
- 4
Beat in eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract.
Tip: Use room temperature eggs for better mixing.
- 5
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Tip: The dough should still be slightly lumpy – that's okay!

Stir in dark chocolate chips.
Tip: Use a mix of dark and milk chocolate for an extra-decadent treat.
- 7
Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches of space between each cookie.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft.
Tip: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
