Cookies with two types of chocolate are a quick and delicious dessert, perfect to enjoy alongside a cup of milk or coffee. These treats are not only easy to prepare, but they also bring a burst of joy in every bite, thanks to the combination of dark chocolate and milk chocolate. Here’s how to make them step by step!

Ingredients:
- 250 g all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 120 g butter (at room temperature)
- 150 g granulated sugar
- 50 g vanilla sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 200 g dark chocolate (chopped)
- 100 g milk chocolate (chopped)

Preparation:
1. Start by preparing your ingredients. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed. This step is essential to avoid lumps in the cookies.

2. In another bowl, beat the softened butter with the granulated sugar and vanilla sugar using an electric mixer or a whisk. Beat until the mixture becomes creamy and light in color, about 3-5 minutes. This step will introduce air into the mixture, making the cookies fluffier.

3. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Make sure the eggs are well incorporated before adding the next one. After adding all the eggs, you can add the dry ingredient mixture, gently folding with a spatula or wooden spoon until everything is well combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent tough cookies.

4. Now comes the magic moment! Add the pieces of dark chocolate and milk chocolate to the cookie mixture. Gently mix to distribute them evenly in the dough. These melted chocolates will turn into a real delight in every bite.

5. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, form balls of dough and place them on the tray, leaving enough space between them as the cookies will spread during baking.

6. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the edges turn golden but the center remains soft. It’s important not to overbake them, as they will harden as they cool.

7. Once the cookies are ready, let them cool on the tray for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. These cookies with two types of chocolate are delicious both warm and at room temperature.

Serving:
These cookies are perfect for serving at a party or as a dessert during a gathering with friends. You can surprise your guests by offering them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side or with warm chocolate sauce for an extra treat.

Customized version:
If you want to add a touch of originality, you can add chopped nuts or hazelnuts to the dough for a crunchy texture. You can also replace the chocolate with other ingredients like dried fruits or coconut flakes. These cookies are versatile and can be adapted to your tastes!

Now it's time to enjoy the fruits of your labor! These cookies with two types of chocolate are a perfect choice for any occasion, being not only delicious but also easy to prepare. Bon appétit!
