Ingredients
  

1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, melted

1 ½ cups (300g) granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup (130g) all-purpose flour

1/2 cup (50g) unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup (180g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup (90g) chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Sea salt for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Stir until well combined. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.

      Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. This helps to avoid lumps and evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

        Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

          Add Chocolate Chips and Nuts: Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts or pecans (if using) until evenly distributed.

            Shape the Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, drop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

              Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes. The edges should be set, but the centers will look soft. If you like a fudgier cookie, aim for the shorter baking time.

                Cool and Add Topping: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of the warm cookies for an extra flavor boost.

                  Serve and Enjoy: Once cooled, serve these fudgy chocolate brownie cookies with a glass of cold milk or your favorite beverage.
