Ingredients:
- 1 cup softened butter
- 2/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips
- 8 ounces chocolate melting wafers
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts, pecans)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions:
- Cream butter and sugar: In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to beat together butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add in vanilla extract and beat until combined.
2.
Mix dry ingredients: Add flour and mix just until flour disappears. Fold in mini chocolate chips and any optional additions. - Chill dough: Transfer dough to a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag or between two layers of plastic wrap. Roll until 1/4 inch thick. Refrigerate on a flat surface until firm, about 1-2 hours.
- Bake: Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Remove dough from plastic and cut into equal-sized squares or rectangles. Transfer cut pieces to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until edges are just lightly kissed with brown.
- Dip in chocolate: Melt dipping chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl by microwaving on high for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between. Dip cookies in chocolate, covering 1/3 or 1/2 of the cookie.
Transfer to parchment paper to harden.
Optional additions:
- For extra flavor: Add chopped nuts, salt, or cinnamon.
- For a richer texture: Use a combination of butter and brown sugar.
- For a spicier kick: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
