Ingredients
1 cup butter (at room temperature)
1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup icing sugar
1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
-
In a mixing bowl, (or bowl from stand mixer) on low-speed blend butter, all-purpose flour and powdered sugar for 1 minute.
-
Increase speed to medium and mix for seven minutes. Yep that’s it – let it mix, grab yourself a cup of coffee and what it transform into this amazingly delicious cookie dough.
-
Add in chocolate chips by hand, mixing only until combined, being gentle when mixing.
-
Using a cookie scoop or heaping tablespoon, drop onto baking sheets, 12 to a sheet.
- Bake in 350°F oven for 10-12 minutes until edges are just light golden brown, being careful not to over bake.
- Remove from oven and cool at least five minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack. They will be quite fragile when they first come out of the oven, so don’t transfer them over too quickly. Enjoy!
