Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

Source: Levain Bakery
I was watching AFC last night & saw this devilious cookies, "The Best Thing I Ever Ate" from the store called Levain Bakery in New York.  I decided to make these cookies & look into my pantry to find the ingredients.   Thank god, I have all the ingredients need & make them that same night.





Ingredients:
250g unsalted butter ~ cubed
1-1/4 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup dark cocoa powder
2-1/4 cup AP flour
1/4 tsp coarse salt
2-1/2 semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 170 deg C.  Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  2. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the butter & sugar.  Beat together on medium-high speed until light & fluffy (2-3 mins)
  3. Blend in the eggs one at a time, scraping down the bowl as needed.  Mix in the dry sifted ingredients on low speed just until well incorporated.  Then use spatula to fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Divide the dough into 4oz (120g) portions.   Roll each portion of dough into a ball & flaten just slightly into a disc.   Place on the prepared baking sheets/mats, a few inches apart. (These cookies yield for 12 cookies, can divide the dough in 2oz (60g) for smaller cookies)
  5. Bake 16-20 mins.   Let cool on the baking sheets/mats (5-10 mins) then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.   Keep in air-tight container.
