Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and unsalted butter until smooth.
Let the melted chocolate mixture cool for 2 minutes.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and granulated sugar for 2 to 3 minutes until thicker and a bit paler.
Whisk in the vanilla extract.
Pour the warm melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture while whisking steadily.
Switch to a spatula.
Fold in the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and fine salt until no streaks remain.
Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
Scoop 1 1/2 tablespoon mounds onto the parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Bake for 9 to 11 minutes at 350°F until the tops look set and crackly.
Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.
Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack.
