  • 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Notes

Please use a kitchen scale. Measuring flour by volume (cups) is notoriously unreliable. Use a kitchen scale and follow our gram measurements! If you don't have a scale, measure your flour with the scoop-and-level method. 

Store Cookies. Store baked cookies in an airtight container on the counter for up to 5 days. Freeze baked cookies for up to 3 months - thaw before serving. Freeze cut, unbaked cookies for up to 3 months. Place frozen cookies on a lined baking sheet while you preheat your oven. Bake as directed. NOTE: You may need to bake a little longer if the cookies are not completely thawed before putting them in the oven.

Ingredients. Use good butter (like Kerrygold) and flour (like King Arthur or Bob's Red Mill) for these cookies. It will make a difference. 

Tips. Don't over mix the butter and sugar. Use room temperature butter. Refrigerate cookies before baking.

Forming cookies. There are a few options when forming cookies. Flatten dough and refrigerate before cutting or after cutting individual cookies. Roll dough into a log and cut slices to form round cookies. All of these work and are covered in more detail in the post above. Make sure dough is cold before placing in the oven.
