How to Make Soft Batch Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, cream cheese, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy.
  4. Mix in the large egg and vanilla extract into the butter mixture until smooth and creamy.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing gently until just combined.
  6. Toss the semi-sweet chocolate chips into the dough, folding them in until evenly distributed.
  7. Use a cookie scoop or your hands to scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set while the centers remain soft.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
