Ingrediente

For the cookies:

1 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup packed brown sugar

2 cups all-purpose flour

½ cup cocoa powder

1 tsp baking soda

Instrucțiuni

Prepare the Lava Filling:

Melt the chopped semi-sweet chocolate and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl using 30-second intervals. Stir until smooth.

Refrigerate the mixture for 15-20 minutes until slightly firm. Scoop into 1-inch balls and freeze for at least 1 hour.

Make the Dough:

In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar.

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Combine Dry Ingredients:

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.

Chill the dough for 30 minutes.

Assemble the Cookies:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough, flatten it, and wrap it around a frozen lava filling ball. Ensure the edges are sealed and shape into a ball.

Bake the Cookies:

Place the cookies 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.

Bake for 12-14 minutes, until the edges are set but the centers remain soft.

Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the tray before transferring them to a wire rack.
