I’ve been working on a new batch of cookies that I think you’re gonna love. These Crumbl Dark Dream Cookies are my take on a double chocolate chocolate chip cookie.

They come out super soft and chewy, just how I like em. I start off by creaming 1 cup unsalted butter with 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup packed brown sugar.

Next up I mix in 2 large eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Into that, I fold 2 cups all-purpose flour and 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder along with 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt for a balanced taste.

Finally, 2 cups dark chocolate chips are gently stirred in. This recipe gives off that rich, decadent vibe similar to the classic Triple Chocolate Crumbl Cookie style and it’s a thick cookie recipe that packs a serious chocolate overload.

Nutritionally, they’re high in energy which makes them a perfect treat when you need that sweet boost in the day.

• Brown sugar adds moisture with its molasses hint, making cookies delightfully soft.
• Eggs act as a binder and add protein, helping together all the ingredients.
• Cocoa powder brings deep dark chocolate flavor and antioxidants, though it lacks fiber.
• Vanilla extract lifts and enhances all the other flavors in the dough.
• Dark chocolate chips deliver bittersweet bursts and extra richness with every bite.
• All-purpose flour forms the base and gives the cookies their needed structure.

How to Make this

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

5. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Don’t overmix or you might end up with tough cookies.

7. Scoop out rounded tablespoon portions of the dough and place them about 2 inches apart on your lined baking sheet.

8. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, watching closely because you want them to stay soft and chewy, even if they look a bit underdone on the edges.

FAQ

Crumbl Dark Dream Cookies Recipe Substitutions and Variations

• If you don’t have unsalted butter around, you can use salted butter instead but just cut back on the added salt a bit
• For granulated sugar, you can swap coconut sugar or turbinado sugar which will give a slightly different flavor but works pretty well
• If you’re out of brown sugar, try mixing granulated sugar with a spoonful of molasses to get a similar moistness and flavor
• When you dont have unsweetened cocoa powder, Dutch-processed cocoa can be used though it might give a less tangy taste
• Dark chocolate chips can be replaced with chopped pieces of dark chocolate bar if needed, just make sure they are roughly the same size

Pro Tips

1. Make sure your butter’s really soft and not melted, cuz that helps the sugars cream up nice and keeps the cookies chewy.
2. Dont overdo mixing the dough once you add the dry ingredients because overmixing can make the cookies tough, trust me on this one.
3. Keep an eye on your oven, even a few extra seconds can change how soft the edges stay; every oven is different so check a couple times.
4. Let the cookies chill on the tray for a few minutes after baking, so they set up properly, yet still stay that warm, melty center youll love.
