Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (190g)
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar (150g)
  • ½ cup packed brown sugar (110g)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (113g), softened
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • ⅓ cup ube powder or ube halaya (about 80g)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (90g)
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream (30ml) or coconut cream for dairy-free

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with granulated and brown sugar until pale and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and ube powder or mashed ube halaya until evenly combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and heavy cream. Heat in 20-second bursts, stirring in between, until smooth and glossy.
  7. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Spoon small dollops of the melted chocolate fudge on top of each cookie dough mound. Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the chocolate into the dough, creating marbled patterns.
  9. Bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are set but centers look soft and slightly underbaked.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Chill the dough for 10-15 minutes before baking if chocolate swirls spread too much. Do not overmix the batter to maintain chewiness. Pull cookies out when centers are still slightly underbaked for the best texture. For gluten-free, use almond flour or a gluten-free baking blend and adjust baking time accordingly. For dairy-free, substitute vegan butter and coconut cream.
