Ingredients

The following ingredients have 10 Servings
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 1 cup granulated white sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¾ cup all purpose flour
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 Tablespoon hot water
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt (plus more for sprinkling)
  • 1 ½ cups chocolate chips (I used Ghirardelli baking chips)

Instruction

  • In a large bowl, add the olive oil and sugar and mix, with a hand mixer, until well combined.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing in between each one.
  • In a small bowl, dissolve the baking soda into the hot water and set aside.
  • Add the cocoa powder, flour, and salt to the egg mixture and beat until a dough forms.
  • Add in the dissolved baking soda and beat until well combined.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips with a spatula. Cover and place the dough in the fridge while the oven preheats to 350° and you line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • Once the oven has preheated, use a medium cookie scoop to scoop out approximately 1.5 tablespoons of dough onto your prepared baking sheets, 9 per sheet. Sprinkle with additional sea salt.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, or until edges are set.
  • Let cool completely on the baking sheets before removing to enjoy.
