Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 15 1/2 x 10 1/2 x 1-inch jelly roll pan.
- In a large mixer bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs and vanilla extract; beat well.
- Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.
- Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture.
- Stir in butter chips.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using dark cocoa powder instead of regular cocoa. You can substitute the butter chips with chocolate chips or nuts for added texture. If you want to reduce sugar, you can use a sugar substitute. Ensure your butter is at room temperature for easier mixing, and don't overmix once the dry ingredients are added to maintain chewiness.
Serving Suggestions
These chewy chocolate pan cookies are perfect on their own or served with a scoop of ice cream for a delightful dessert. Pair them with a glass of cold milk or a cup of coffee for a cozy treat. They also make a great addition to dessert tables alongside other favorites like Light Pumpkin Cheesecake or Dolly'S Fresh Apple Nut Cake.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze them in a single layer and then transfer to a freezer-safe bag for up to three months. To reheat, simply microwave for a few seconds or place them in a warm oven for a few minutes until soft.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make these cookies gluten-free?
Yes, you can substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend that measures cup-for-cup. Just ensure your baking soda is also gluten-free, and your butter chips are safe for gluten-free diets.
What can I use instead of butter chips?
If you don't have butter chips, chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, or even chopped nuts can be used as a substitute. Each will give a slightly different flavor and texture to the cookies.
How do I know when the cookies are done baking?
Look for the edges to be set and slightly pulling away from the sides of the pan, while the center remains soft. Cookies will continue to firm up as they cool, so avoid overbaking for that chewy texture.
