Prepare 2 baking trays with greaseproof paper and set aside.
Beat the butter and sugars together, then gradually mix in the vanilla and eggs.
In another bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, a pinch of salt, baking powder and cayenne pepper, then mix these into the butter and add in all the chocolate.
Place 1 tablespoon dollops of the mixture on the baking trays, leaving enough space between so they don’t join.
