Ingredients

The following ingredients have 85 Servings
  • ½ cup butter (softened )
  • ½ cup butter flavored shortening
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 ½ cups flour
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 ¼ cup mini chocolate chips

Instruction

  • Prep: Start by preheating the oven to 325 degrees F. Next, line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicon mat, set it aside.
  • Batter: In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream together the butter and shortening. Then, add in the white and brown sugar and eggs, mix these ingredients together. After that, add in 1/2 the flour, the baking soda, baking powder and salt, mix again well. Then add in the remaining flour and mix until combined. Now, fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Scoop: To make these tiny cookies, you will need to scoop just a small amount. There are two ways I found you can easily do this step: The first is to spray a 1 tsp measuring spoon with non-stick spray and scoop the dough, then divide it in half. This actually works pretty well; you will just have to re-spray the spoon after 4 or 5scoops. The second way is to scoop out dough using a regular 1.5 TBSP cookie scoop. (I use this cookies coop here) Then divide that scoop of dough in half, then divide those2 halves in half (so now you have 4 mounds of dough). Now divide all those dough mounds in half- you'll end up with 8 pieces of dough.
  • Bake: Proceed to roll each mini piece of dough into a ball and place on the prepared cookie sheet. Place the cookies in the preheated oven and bake for 6-8minutes. Once baked, let the cookies cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. Serve and enjoy!
