Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Stir in the mini chocolate chips.
  • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes (or overnight).
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out thinly to about 1/8 inch thickness.
  • Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the dough into small, uniform squares (about 1/4 inch).
  • Carefully transfer the mini cookies to the prepared baking sheets, leaving a little space between each cookie.
  • Bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Watch them carefully, as they bake quickly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheets before transferring them to a wire rack. They will crisp up as they cool.
  • Store cooled Cookie Crisp in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
