If you think a truly great chocolate chip cookie requires chilling the dough overnight or any complicated technique, this recipe is about to prove you wrong. These bakery-style double chocolate chip cookies are thick, fudgy, and loaded with dark and milk chocolate and they go from one bowl straight into the oven in under 20 minutes. No chill time, no fuss, no compromise on flavor.
What Are Double Chocolate Chip Cookies?
A double chocolate chip cookie uses two types of chocolate in the same dough, melted dark chocolate folded into the batter for a rich, intense base, and milk chocolate chips scattered throughout for pockets of creamy sweetness in every bite. The result sits perfectly between a brownie and a classic cookie, with crisp edges and a soft, gooey center that stays that way even after cooling.
Important Note
These cookies are meant to look slightly underbaked when you pull them from the oven, that is intentional. They will continue to set on the hot tray for a few minutes after baking, and the center will firm up while staying perfectly fudgy inside. Do not leave them in longer for a more set look, or you will lose that soft center entirely.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe
- One Bowl, No Mixer – Everything comes together with just a spatula in a single bowl
- Deeply Chocolatey – Melted dark chocolate in the dough plus milk chocolate chips in every bite
- No Chill Time – Straight from the bowl into the oven, cookies ready in under 30 minutes
- Perfect Texture – Crisp edges, fudgy center, and a chew that holds up the next day too
- Bakery-Worthy Results – The two-sugar combination and extra yolk deliver that thick, professional finish
Serving Suggestion
Serve warm, about 10 minutes out of the oven, when the chips are still slightly melted and the center is at peak fudginess. A cold glass of whole milk is the classic pairing and hard to beat. For something more indulgent, sandwich a scoop of vanilla ice cream between two warm cookies, the contrast speaks for itself.
Pro Tips for the Perfect Cookie
- Use Quality Dark Chocolate – It forms the flavor base of the entire dough, so use at least 60% cocoa
- Do Not Overmix After the Flour – Fold just until combined to keep the texture fudgy, not cakey
- Underbake on Purpose – Pull at 12 minutes even if the centers look soft; they set as they cool
- Use a Cookie Scoop – Even portions bake consistently and give a clean, bakery look
- Bang the Tray – Drop the tray on the counter right out of the oven for those beautiful rippled edges
Ingredient Notes
- Dark Chocolate – Chopped and folded directly into the dough alongside the milk chocolate chips, creating rich, melty pockets of intense dark chocolate throughout every cookie
- Milk Chocolate Chips – Stirred in at the end for creamy pockets throughout the cookie
- Brown Sugar – Responsible for the chewy texture and subtle caramel depth
- White Sugar – Helps the edges crisp up and balances the moisture from the brown sugar
- Melted Butter – Creates a denser, fudgier texture than softened butter; cool slightly before using
- 1 Egg and 1 Yolk – The whole egg gives structure; the extra yolk adds richness and fudginess
Ingredients
• 180 g flour
• ¼ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon baking powder
• A pinch of salt
• 100 g butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 150 g brown sugar
• 50 g white sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 medium egg
• 1 egg yolk
• 100 g dark chocolate, melted
• 80 g milk chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven — Set to 180°C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Combine butter and sugar — Whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until glossy.
Add vanilla and eggs — Stir in vanilla extract, then the whole egg and egg yolk until smooth.
Add the dry ingredients — Sift in flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Fold until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate — Add the chopped dark chocolate and milk chocolate chips and fold evenly through the dough.
Portion onto the tray — Scoop into balls and place on the lined tray with space between each. No chilling needed.
Bake — Bake for exactly 12 minutes. The centers will look soft, this is correct.
Bang and rest — Drop the tray on the counter once or twice straight out of the oven. Rest for 5 minutes on the tray before serving warm.
FAQ
Yes! You can swap every ingredient out to a vegan alternative for it to be vegan friendly!
Let cookies cool completely before storing to prevent condensation from making them soggy. Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature and they’ll stay soft and chewy for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze the baked cookies in a zip-lock bag for up to 3 months.
To revive that fresh-baked feel, pop a cookie in the microwave for 10–15 seconds until just warm and gooey. Alternatively, warm them in a 160°C (325°F) oven for 3–4 minutes for a slightly crispier edge. Place a small slice of bread in the container overnight to keep them extra soft if reheating the next day.
