Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

In a large bowl, sift the cocoa powder into the basic cookie mix to ensure even distribution and prevent clumps. (2 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

In a separate small bowl, lightly beat the egg. Add the beaten egg to the cocoa and cookie mix. (1 minute)

04

Step
3 mins

Gently melt the butter over low heat, ensuring it doesn't brown. Stir the melted butter into the mixture. (3 minutes)

05

Step
3 mins

Add water and vanilla extract to the bowl and thoroughly mix all ingredients until a smooth, consistent dough forms. (3 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Drop the cookie dough by teaspoonfuls onto a greased baking sheet, leaving a little space between each cookie. (5 minutes)

07

Step
15 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft. (12-15 minutes)

08

Step
5 mins

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (5 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use dark cocoa powder.
Add chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit for extra texture and flavor.
Store the baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
Ensure your butter is fully melted for a smoother dough consistency.
Do not overbake for chewier cookies.
