Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups chocolate chips or melting wafers
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • Sprinkles or toppings as desired

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
  3. Beat the butter and sugar together in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until smooth.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until the dough comes together.
  6. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, flattening each slightly.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden and centers look slightly underdone.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Melt the chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl until smooth.
  10. Dip each cooled cookie halfway into the melted chocolate and add toppings before the chocolate sets.
  11. Allow the chocolate to set completely at room temperature or refrigerate for faster setting.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for best results. Refrigerate dough if too soft. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
