Preparation Steps

• Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
• Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
• Stir in the chocolate chips.
• Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
• Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
