• 1/4 tsp baking powder

• 2 large eggs

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Melt butter and chocolate:
   In a heat-safe bowl, microwave butter and 1 cup chocolate chips in 30-second bursts until melted. Stir until smooth. Let cool slightly.

3. Mix eggs & sugar:
   In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy (2–3 minutes).

4. Combine:
   Slowly stir in the cooled chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until combined.

5. Add dry ingredients:
   Sift in flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Fold gently until just combined. Batter will be thick and brownie-like.

6. Shape cookies:
   Scoop about 2 tbsp of dough, flatten slightly, place a chocolate truffle or frozen Nutella in the center, and wrap dough around it to seal. Repeat.

7. Bake:
   Bake for 9–11 minutes until edges are set but centers still look slightly underdone. (Don’t overbake — the gooey center is key!)

8. Cool:
   Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5–10 minutes before transferring. Optional: top with a few extra chocolate chips while warm.
