Ingredients

½ cup all-purpose flour
¼ Dutch process cocoa
1 teaspoon espresso powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 pound semi-sweet chocolate chopped
4 tablespoons salted butter diced
5 large eggs room temperature
¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup packed dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

In a small bowl, mix together flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, cinnamon, baking powder and salt until well combined.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the chopped chocolate and butter. Microwave in 15-second intervals and stir. Continue this process until the chocolate melts and smooths out.
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs, white sugar, dark brown sugar and vanilla extract on medium speed until frothy, about four minutes. Fold in the melted chocolate. Stir in the flour mixture just until combined, and then stir in the chocolate chips. At this point, it will look like brownie batter rather than cookie dough. Don't panic.
Place the bowl in the freezer until the batter can be scooped into solid cookie dough balls, about an hour and a half.
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Scoop the solid brownie cookie dough into balls about the size of golf balls onto a parchment-paper lined baking sheet. Bake for nine minutes. Allow to cool on the baking sheet for a couple minutes and then move to a wire rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!

Notes

Nutritional information is only an estimate. The accuracy of the nutritional information for any recipe on this site is not guaranteed.
Rather than using the freezer, you can place in the refrigerator for a longer period of time, even overnight. As long as it's a solid cookie dough ball, you're good.
If you skipped to the recipe, you can scroll up to see photos of how the dough should and shouldn't look before baking.
