Ingredients

• 95 g (¾ cups) plain (all-purpose) flour
  
  

• 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  
  

• 1 teaspoon baking powder
  
  

• ¼ teaspoon salt
  
  

• 225 g (1¼ cups) dark chocolate, chopped
  
  

• 56 g (¼ cups) butter, salted or unsalted
  
  

• 2 eggs, room temperature
  
  

• 100 g (¾ cups) caster or granulated sugar
  
  

• 90 g (½ cups) demerara or raw sugar
  
  

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  
  

• 85 g (½ cups) dark or milk chocolate chips
  
  

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat to 160ºC (320ºF) fan or 170ºC (338ºF) conventional. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
   
   

2. Melt Chocolate & Butter: In a heatproof bowl over simmering water, melt chopped dark chocolate and butter. Stir until smooth, then mix in the vanilla.
   
   

3. Whip Eggs & Sugar: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, caster sugar, and demerara sugar using an electric whisk until thick and fluffy (about 5 minutes).
   
   

4. Mix Dry Ingredients: Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the chocolate chips.
   
   

5. Combine Wet & Dry: Gently fold the chocolate mixture into the whipped eggs and sugars. Then carefully fold in the dry mixture.
   
   

6. Scoop & Bake: Drop tablespoons of batter onto the tray, spacing them apart. Bake for 12–14 minutes until crackled on top but still soft inside.
   
   

7. Cool & Finish: Sprinkle with sea salt if desired. Let cool on the tray for 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack.
