HOW TO MAKE DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIES:

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

2. Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

3. In a separate bowl, beat together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy. Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

4. Gradually beat in the flour mixture until well combined.

5. Stir in the chocolate chunks.

6. Drop spoonful of dough onto a baking sheet.

7. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are set.

8. Cool the cookies for a few minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.

Storing Cookies:

Room Temperature: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.

Refrigeration: If you prefer a chewier texture, refrigerate the cookies. This can help retain their moisture.

Freezing Cookies:

Before Baking: Scoop the dough onto a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Transfer the frozen dough balls to a Ziploc bag. When ready to bake, simply add a couple of minutes to the baking time.

After Baking: Allow the cookies to cool completely, then place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze. Once frozen, transfer to an airtight container or freezer bag. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months. To enjoy, let them thaw at room temperature or warm them in a preheated oven at 150°C (300°F) for 5-10 minutes.
