Ingredients:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions:

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats for easy cleanup.

  2. Cream the Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.

  3. Incorporate Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring they are well incorporated. Stir in the vanilla extract for that extra touch of flavor.

  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder until well combined.

  5. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth dough forms.

  6. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the white chocolate chips and dark chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough, adding a burst of rich chocolate flavor in every bite.

  7. Shape and Bake: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto your prepared baking sheets, making sure to space them about 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are set and the tops are slightly cracked.

  8. Cool and Cut: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, use a round cookie cutter to cut out the center of each cookie, creating a charming "moon" shape.

  9. Enjoy the Cosmic Delights: Serve your Eclipse Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage, and savor the magical combination of chocolate flavors and whimsical moon shapes.
