Ingredients for Double Chocolate Mini Cookies

Salted Butter (softened) – I always use salted butter in my cookies. If you only have unsalted, just add an extra pinch of salt to the dough.
Granulated Sugar – The sugar in this recipe gives our cookies a perfectly crisp edge.
Brown Sugar – We’ll use brown sugar too because it keeps the cookie nice and soft.
Egg
Vanilla Extract
All Purpose Flour
Unsweetened Cocoa Powder – You can use regular, unsweetened cocoa powder or my favorite dutch processed cocoa powder for a richer flavor and darker color.
Baking Soda – Baking soda will help the cookies spread and become chewy.
Salt
Mixed Chopped Chocolate – I like to chop up a mix of white, milk and semisweet chocolate bars for these double chocolate cookies. You can find them in the baking aisle by the cocoa powder. My favorite brands for baking chocolate bars are Lindt, Ghirardelli, and Cadbury. Make sure you chop the chocolate pieces up really small because these are mini cookies.

How to Make Bite Sized Chocolate Cookies

Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F.
Prepare a cookie sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, then set side.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, or with an electric hand mixer, cream together the butter, sugar, and brown sugar until thoroughly combined.
Next, add in the egg and vanilla, then continue to mix until thoroughly combined.
Now add in the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt), then mix until a soft dough forms.
Chop your chocolate bars in small pieces, then add to the dough. Mix until the chocolate chunks are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Use clean hands to break the dough into small, 2 tsp size pieces. You can either roll each portion into a smooth ball or leave the pieces jagged from breaking the dough. I usually don’t roll these ones for a more textured look.
Arrange your small portions of chocolate dough evenly on your prepared baking sheet.
Bake the cookies in your preheated oven for 5-7 minutes or until the cookies have spread, flattened, and no longer look wet and glossy in the center.
After baking, allow the cookies to cool directly on the pan prior to serving.
Store your cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
ENJOY!
