**Nigella Lawson Chocolate Cookie**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 1 egg
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, and beat until smooth and well incorporated.
5. Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the dough.
6. Gently fold in the semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
7. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie for spreading.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft.
9. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
