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!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Brown Your Butter First 🧈
Melt and brown your unsalted butter before mixing to develop deep, nutty flavors that elevate the cookies beyond standard recipes. Let it cool slightly before incorporating into your dough.
Chop Your Chocolate Unevenly 🍫
Use a knife to hand-chop your semi-sweet chocolate into varied sizes rather than using uniform chips—larger chunks create pockets of melty chocolate while smaller pieces distribute flavor throughout.
Chill Your Dough Before Portioning ❄️
Refrigerate your dough for at least 30 minutes before scooping mini portions; this prevents spread and creates thicker, chewier cookies with better texture control.
Use Both Sugars Strategically 🍯
The light brown sugar adds moisture and chewiness while granulated sugar promotes crispness—creaming them together thoroughly ensures they're fully incorporated for consistent results across all 4 dozen cookies.
Underbake by 30 Seconds ⏱️
Remove your mini cookies from the oven when the edges are set but the centers still appear slightly underdone; they'll continue cooking on the hot baking sheet and deliver that perfect soft texture in 2-3 bites.
