How to make chocolate cookies.

Chocolate cookies are easy to make. You will need a good quality cocoa powder, some expresso powder and your butter flour and sugar.

Just that? O yeah.. just those ?. Are you excited yet? Just wait… Guess what? It’s made in one bowl. This cookie dough doesn’t need to chill in the fridge especially if you are in a hurry.

No chill time means You can start rolling, cutting out and baking as soon as possible .

If you are living in a warmer climate and you notice that these cookies lose shape while baking, a quick fix will be to a 30 minute chill after cutting out the shapes.

To be honest I bake these cookies without chilling because we always want the cookies ‘now’. Be sure to try out these chocolate covered cherry cookies next!

Can I make the cookie ahead? Can I freeze the dough?

This cookie dough can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and the freezer for up to a month.

Let the frozen dough thaw overnight in the refrigerator or on the kitchen counter for a few hours till it’s pliable.

Roll out on a floured surface, cut out with cookie cutter and bake.

How to store Chocolate Cookies

These cookies can be stored in an air tight container for up to a week. They never really last that long since they are gobbled up by some munchkins I know.

    We made it and loved it! Thank you for this very fuss-free recipe! I made it with my daughters. We mistakenly tossed the sugar in with the flour, but in the end it didn’t matter as it was a huge success and the kids have demanded an encore today! Well done!

    1. Yayy!! Ugo, that’s music to my ears. Thank you for the feedback. Happy you created fun memories making these cookies with your daughters. That’s awesome.

      About the sugar and flour matter, don’t sweat it, these cookies are very forgiving. Please make some more. 😃 Stay safe!
