Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup salted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs + 1 egg yolk
  • 1 Tbsp corn syrup
  • 1/2 Tbsp vanilla
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cups dutch processed cocoa powder
  • 1/2 Tbsp. corn starch
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil or vegetable shortening
  • 6 oz. small white nonpareils (I used 2 bottles of Wilton White Nonpareils, 3 oz. each)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • In a bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light in color and fluffy in texture. This will take about 2 minutes.
    3/4 cup salted butter, softened, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • Add in the eggs, corn syrup and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
    2 eggs + 1 egg yolk, 1 Tbsp corn syrup, 1/2 Tbsp vanilla
  • Scrape down the sides and add the flour, cocoa, corn starch, salt and baking soda. Mix until a soft dough forms.
    2 cups all-purpose flour, 2/3 cups dutch processed cocoa powder, 1/2 Tbsp. corn starch, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • Divide the dough into 1 tsp. portions (a 1 tsp. cookie scoop will save you a lot of time here) and arrange on a cookie sheet lined with parchment or a silicone mat. Since these are so small you can get about 20 per sheet.
  • Bake for 5-7 minutes or until the cookies no longer look glossy.
  • Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool completely.
  • Once the cookies are cool, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil or shortening together by microwaving in 30 second increments, stirring in between until melted and smooth.
    1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1 tbsp coconut oil or vegetable shortening
  • Working one at a time, dip the top of a cookie in melted semisweet chocolate. Scrape off any excess chocolate on the side of the bowl and then lay flat into a shallow bowl of the white nonpareils. Allow the cookies to set up for a minute before flipping over and placing on a cookie sheet.
    6 oz. small white nonpareils
  • Repeat with the rest of the cookies, and allow chocolate to set before serving. You can speed this process up in the refrigerator.
  • Store at room temperature in an airtight container. Enjoy!
