In a large bowl, whisk together the sifted flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
3
In another bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
4
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, mixing well after each addition, and then stir in the vanilla extract.
5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined and a smooth dough forms.

Using a cookie scoop or your hands, roll the dough into approximately 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
