Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/4 stick (18 tablespoons) unsalted butter at room temperature
1 c granulated white sugar
1 c light (golden) brown sugar
2 large eggs at room temperature
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/2 c (12 ounces) all-purpose flour
3/4 c (2 1/4 ounces) cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp new mexico chili powder (or 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper)
12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • 1. Adjust an oven rack to the center position and preheat the oven to 350°. Line a cookie sheet (or 2 half-sheets) with parchment paper.
  • 2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, using a paddle blade, cream the butter, white sugar and brown sugar until they are light and fluffy. One at a time, add the eggs, mixing after each addition to make sure they are well combined. Mix in the vanilla.
  • 3. In a medium mixing bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and chili powder. I use a whisk to make sure they are well mixed.
  • 4. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Mix everything until the ingredients are fully combined, but do not over-beat. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the chocolate chips.
  • 5. Using a #50 scoop (1 1/3 Tablespoons), or slightly rounded Tablespoons, drop the dough on your prepared sheet 2" apart. Bake the cookies until they are nicely cracked but still appear a little raw inside, about 10-12 minutes. Let them cool for 5 minutes before removing them to a rack to cool completely.
