In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until well combined and smooth.

Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition until the mixture is glossy and lightened in color. Stir in the vanilla extract.

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. If using, fold in the chocolate chips.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much.

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly soft and fudgy. Do not overbake.

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
