Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies
These mini chocolate chip cookies are perfectly soft, loaded with chopped chocolate, and can be enjoyed in just two to three bites!
Ingredients
- 270 g (2 ¼ cup) all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 170 g (12 tablespoon) unsalted butter, room temp
- 160 g (¾ cup) light brown sugar
- 100 g (½ cup) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg, room temp
- 1 teaspoon vanilla paste or extract
- 113 g (4 oz) semi-sweet chocolate, roughly chopped + more for topping
Instructions
- In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugars for 2-3 minutes until light & fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla until fully combined.
- Scrape down the bowl, then add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined.
- Fold in the roughly chopped chocolate with a rubber spatula until evenly distributed.
- Using a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop, portion the dough onto a small parchment lined baking sheet. Freeze for 15-30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Place the frozen cookie dough balls on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Top each of them with more chopped chocolate if desired. Bake for 8-10 minutes until barely golden on the edges.
- Once the cookies come out of the oven, immediately use a round cookie cutter or glass to scoot the edges in and make them perfectly round.
- Allow to cool completely on the baking sheet, and enjoy!
Notes
- Use a cookie scoop. Use a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop to portion the cookie dough into equally sized cookies!
- Freeze the portioned cookie dough. To ensure the cookies bake up thick, don't skip the freeze time!
- Scoot the cookies. Immediately after the cookies come out of the oven, use a large round cookie cutter or glass to scoot the edges and form a perfectly round cookie.
