Inside out chocolate chip cookies are the opposite of a regular chocolate chip cookie with a chocolate dough and a white chocolate chip, but I also included some semi-sweet chips for a little more depth. They're a basic, easy to make cookie that everyone loves.

If you're a chocolate cookie lover you should also try my chocolate crinkle cookies, my chocolate chip sugar cookies, or my chocolate rolo cookies.

WHY YOU WILL LOVE THESE

3 TYPES OF CHOCOLATE- With dark cocoa powder, white and semi-sweet chips these are loaded with chocolate.

NO CHILLING REQUIRED- These cookies can be made in less than 30 minutes.

PERFECT CHOCOLATE BASE- This is a great basic chocolate cookie that you could sub other chips to your liking.

INGREDIENT NOTES

FLOUR: Using a scale is best to measure ingredients, but if you don't have one lightly spoon flour into a measuring cup.

DARK COCOA POWDER: This is not to be confused with black cocoa powder. If you don't have dark, dutch process is another great option.

CORNSTARCH: This helps to make a lighter, chewier cookie. If you don't have it you can sub with regular flour.

WHITE & SEMI-SWEET CHOCOLATE CHIPS: This is a great combo, but I also love making these with peanut butter chip.

EXPERT BAKING TIPS

I have given both cups and grams as measurements. Grams will be more precise, especially when measuring flour. If you don’t have a kitchen scale, no problem! Just lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup to insure its not packed in there. Light and fluffy is the key.

I like to sprinkle cookies with flaked salt before baking so that little bits of salt bake underneath the cookie as well. Then I sprinkle a bit more after baking also.

FAQ

How can I tell these cookies are done baking since they're so dark?

If the cookies have lost all their shiny top then they are probably done baking. Another way to tell is if the outside rim feels firm.

Can I double this recipe?

Yes, this is a great recipe to double.

Can I chop up chocolate bars instead of using chocolate chips?

Yes, I always love chopping up chocolate bars because then you get melty pools of chocolate.

STORING AND FREEZING

Inside out chocolate chip cookies will remain fresh if stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days. You can also prep the cookie dough in advance and store it in the fridge for about a week.

FREEZING

You can freeze your cookies in an airtight container for 2-3 months with them remaining fresh. You can also freeze the cookie dough balls if you would like to bake them one at a time, or as needed.
