- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until well combined.

Notes
For extra gooey cookies, skip the chopping of dark chocolate and use only chocolate chips or add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking.
