Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 cup dry milk (nonfat)
  • 1/2 cup brown Sugar Twin
  • 1/2 teaspoon butter extract
  • 1 cup sifted flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • dash of salt
  • 12 ounces mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Combine butter, egg, vanilla, butter extract, dry milk, Sugar Twin, and water in a mixing bowl.
  2. Beat for 1 minute at medium speed.
  3. Add sifted flour, baking soda, and salt to the mixture.
  4. Blend for 2 minutes at low speed.

  6. Drop by teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheets.
  7. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips & Substitutions

For a lighter cookie, consider using a sugar substitute like stevia instead of Sugar Twin. If you prefer a chewier texture, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking. You can also experiment by adding nuts or dried fruits to the mix. Ensure the mini chocolate chips are evenly distributed for a perfect chocolatey bite.

Serving Suggestions

These chocolate chip cookies are delightful on their own but also pair beautifully with a glass of cold milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. For a fun twist, serve them alongside Yippee Yogurt Pops for a sweet dessert platter. Perfect for parties or as a snack with afternoon tea.

Storage & Reheating

Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze them in a single layer, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag for up to three months. To reheat, warm them in a preheated oven at 300°F (150°C) for 5-7 minutes to restore their freshness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I substitute the butter with a healthier option?

Yes, you can replace the butter with coconut oil or a vegan butter alternative to make the cookies dairy-free. Just ensure to use the same amount for a similar texture, and it will still yield delicious results.

What can I use instead of dry milk?

If you don't have dry milk, you can substitute it with an equal amount of almond milk powder or just omit it and add a bit more flour to maintain consistency. The cookies will still turn out tasty without it.

How do I know when the cookies are done baking?

Cookies are done when they are golden brown around the edges and slightly soft in the center. They will continue to firm up as they cool on the baking sheet, so avoid overbaking for the best texture.
