Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips (55-70% cocoa solids)
  • Pinch of espresso powder (optional, for enhanced depth)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C)
  2. Whisk eggs and sugar until light and fluffy
  3. Melt butter with dark chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl
  4. Whisk melted chocolate-butter mixture into egg-sugar foam until glossy
  5. Sift in flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet ingredients
  6. Fold in chocolate chips and vanilla extract until fully incorporated
  7. Scoop dough into 24 balls and place on baking sheets

Notes

Ensure chocolate and cocoa are certified halal if adhering to specific dietary guidelines
Substitute melted chocolate chips with chopped high-quality dark chocolate for texture variation
Gentle folding prevents overworking the dough, which maintains fudginess
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days
