To make these cookies, you’ll need:

2 tablespoons of cornstarch
1 teaspoon of baking powder
½ teaspoon of baking soda
½ cup of salted sweet cream butter, softened
1 cup of granulated sugar
1 cup of light brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon of heavy cream
2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs, room temperature

Substitutions And Additions

BAKING CHIPS: You can substitute dark chocolate chips for white chocolate chips in these delicious cookies.

NUTS: You can also add chopped nuts to the cookie dough before baking.

VANILLA EXTRACT: Experiment with different extracts to infuse unique flavors into your cookies.

Almond extract can provide a marzipan-like undertone, while peppermint extract can create festive holiday cookies.

COCOA POWDER: Experiment with different types of cocoa powder to change the depth of chocolate flavor in your cookies.

Dutch-processed cocoa powder will provide a richer, smoother taste, while natural cocoa powder offers a more intense, slightly acidic chocolate flavor.

How To Make This Triple Chocolate Cookies Recipe

This cookie recipe is fairly straightforward and comes together quickly. The only added step you need to make sure to save time for is the chilling time in the fridge.

This will help avoid ending up with flat cookies that have spread during baking.

Our step-by-step instructions below will help you make these decadent treats.

STEP ONE: Add the flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking powder, and baking soda to a medium bowl. Whisk dry ingredients to combine and set aside.

STEP TWO: In the bowl of a stand mixer or a large bowl and a handheld electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat the butter for 1 to 1½ minutes until smooth.

STEP THREE: Add the sugars, heavy cream, and vanilla. Continue mixing for another 1½ to 2 minutes or until light and fluffy.

STEP FOUR: Reduce the mixer to low speed. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each egg.

STEP SIX: Add the semi-sweet chips, milk chocolate chips, and white chips. Mix just until incorporated. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for one hour.

OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS

Chilling the dough allows the ingredients to come together, which improves the texture and gives you a thick and chewy cookie instead of spreading flat when they bake.

STEP SEVEN: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

PRO TIP:

If you want jumbo cookies, use a 3-tablespoon cookie scoop. You will need to add an additional two minutes to the baking time. If you want bite-size cookies, use a one-tablespoon cookie scoop. Lower the bake time to eight minutes.

STEP EIGHT: Use a 1½-tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop out the cookie dough. Space the cookie dough balls about two inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.

PRO TIP:

You can lightly press the cookie dough before baking.

STEP NINE: Bake for 10 to 11 minutes. Eleven minutes was spot on for me; your oven may bake differently, though.

Allow the cookies to rest on the cookie sheet for five to seven minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

PRO TIP:

Oven temperatures vary and may need to be recalibrated periodically to ensure they are accurate. Make sure to check your cookies at the lower end of the recommended baking time.

How To Serve

These chewy triple chocolate cookies would make a fantastic afternoon snack when the little ones get home.

Serve along with a Wendy’s Frosty or an Orange Julius for an extra special treat.

Add an extra touch of deliciousness with a scoop of rich and creamy vanilla ice cream – this combination takes dessert heaven to the next level!
