Chewy Double-Chocolate Cookies
Never underestimate a cookie.
For sure not this cookie.
It’s a good thing to have a list of cookie recipes that you know won’t fail you. This could include anything from peanut butter to oatmeal to snickerdoodles to gingersnaps, and of course, chocolate. So, I wouldn’t describe these cookies as having a brownie texture because they’re sturdier and firmer, but if you’re dealing with unrelenting chocolate cravings, you have *most definitely* come to the right place. Great. Now I want a cookie.
These cookies have an incredible chewy, fudgy texture, and are totally splurge worthy and satisfying. They also have a secret ingredient: oatmeal. While the oatmeal isn’t very apparent, the recipe has just enough to give this chocolate cookie an absolutely irresistible texture. One thing that I’ve discovered when using oatmeal in cookies is that it’s super important to use quick oats or old-fashioned oats chopped in a blender or food processor. Whole old-fashioned oats tend to give a completely different texture and look to cookies…..one I don’t prefer.
I can’t wait for you guys to try this recipe.

Chewy Double-Chocolate Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup softened butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 3/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup quick oats* not old fashioned
- 2/3-1 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- With paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla and beat until combined.
- Whisk together dry ingredients and incorporate into creamed mixture along with chocolate chips.
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Let cookie dough rest for 15-30 min.*
- On parchment lined baking sheets, scoop out cookie dough in a 4 by 4 pattern in heaping Tbsp. (I used a cookie scoop)
- Bake for 10-13 min until cookies are no longer shiny. As soon as cookies come out of the oven drop the pans on a towel so the cookies settle and form cracks. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired. Cool a bit and remove from baking sheets. Then plunge the warm cookie deep into a glass of frothy, creamy milk and savor every chewy, gooey, crisp-edged bite:)
Notes
These are so good! They have the perfect chewy texture and are not over-sweet.
Looking forward to trying these! They look amazing!!
Hi Danae, just wanted to give you feedback on this cookie. Tamra made them yesterday, and they turned out really great: I did encourage her to cut back on the sugar though😁Hubby came through several times and snatched a few every time and commented, “whoever made those cookies….They’re super good👍“ Just thought I’d let you know we really enjoyed them 👌☺️
