Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies

When I made White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies in March,

I realized I have never blogged about my Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe!

I'm finally getting around to sharing that recipe with you guys today, 

but instead of the "normal" size, I made a batch of mini cookies!!!

As I mentioned in this post, the Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe I use 

is the original Tollhouse recipe found on the back of the bag.

The ONLY thing I do differently is bake them a few minutes less. 

The Goods:

Flour

Baking Soda
Salt

Sugar

Brown Sugar

Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips

Macadamia Nuts

Vanilla

Eggs

Unsalted Butter (Not pictured - whoops!)

Measure out and prep all your good before you get started.

This makes the cookie making process a lot faster!

Let butter soften, then beat with mixer.

Add sugar, brown sugar and vanilla then mix.

Add eggs and mix to incorporate completely.

Add the dry ingredients and mix again.

Finally, add in the chocolate chip and mix until combined. 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Now the easy part is done!

The next step isn't exactly "hard",

but does take some time and patience.

Pinch the SMALLEST bit of dough possible,

and space them out on a parchment lined cookie sheet.

To get the right sized cookie, this took some trial and error.

You'll think you need much more dough,

but those "blobs" are about the size of a dime!!!

Bake your cookies for about 5 minutes.

Once they start to turn golden, they're ready!

Cool on the pan for a minute.

Then place on a wire rack to finish cooling.

When I make "normal" sized cookie, I usually get a few dozen...

But with the mini ones I made over 350 cookies.

Yes, you read that right folks!

More than THREE HUNDRED & FIFTY mini cookies!

Now it's time to grab an ice cold glass of milk

and taste test a few (ok, maybe like 10) mini cookies!

And then package up the rest for a cute boy and your coworkers!

Even though there were SO many cookies,

all of them were eaten in less than 24 hours!!!
