Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet and dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop heaping tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place the dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers are slightly soft. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For a slightly different twist, try adding white chocolate chips or chopped nuts like walnuts or almonds to the dough.
If your dough seems too soft, chill it for 30 minutes before baking to help the cookies hold their shape.
For a more intense chocolate flavor, increase the amount of dark chocolate chips.
