    HOW TO MAKE THESE COOKIES

    Start by preheating the oven to 350 F and lining baking trays with parchment paper.

    Next, cut your mini chips ahoy chocolate chip cookies into quarters until you have 1 cup worth. Set aside.

    In a large bowl or in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment on beat butter and white sugar together until light and fluffy. This usually takes about 3 minutes.

    Add in the egg, blue food colouring, and vanilla and mix till well incorporated.

    In a separate large bowl whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet and mix till combined.

    If you are not happy with your blue colouring you can add some more blue food colouring in at this point and continue mixing until you have your desired colour.

    Fold in the chopped mini chocolate chip cookies.

    Scoop 3 tbsp worth of dough into a ball and place on the baking trays 2 inches apart. Add a whole mini chocolate chip cookie in the top centre of each cookie dough ball, gently pressing it in place.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    WHAT DOES SPOONED AND LEVELLED FLOUR MEAN?

    Spooned and levelled flour refers to the way of measuring flour. To properly measure flour you should scoop spoonfuls of flour into your measuring cup and then scrape with a knife to level off the access. Scooping the measuring cup directly into your flour cause the flour to compress and getting more than the recipe calls for.

    STORING THE COOKIES

    Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. The keep well up to four days

    HOW TO GET PERFECTLY ROUND COOKIES

    As soon as the baked cookies are pulled from the oven place a round cookie cutter (a little bit large than the cookies) around the cookies and gently swirl it around. This will give your cookie a round shape. If you don’t have a cookie cutter you can use a glass or a jar lid.

    HOW TO GET CHEWY COOKIES

    The trick is to slightly under bake the cookies. Take them out when the centre looks a little soft. Leave them to cool on the tray. The residual heat from the tray will continue to cook the cookies. Once cooled the cookies will stiffen up and be chewy.

    CAN I MAKE THE COOKIES SMALLER?

    Yes, you can definitely make these cookies half the original size. Bake them for 8 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.

      I made 5 batches of them in red for a Pentacost church social this Sunday. I call them Elmo cookies. I did a lot of short term freezing of the dough columns on the baking sheets, added 2 extra spoons of flour to each batch, and still needed to get in and shape up the cookies with a spoon and reposition the chips ahoy mini as they baked. They are cute for kids and are tasty.

      Addendum to above: I make great pies with homemade crusts, biscotti, and pizzelles but not cookies, so I found this process educational. By the 8th and final batch, I feel that I reached perfection. I always use an oven thermometer, and I found that after 12 minutes, these cookies were spread out and uncooked. At this point, I reshaped them with a spoon as you suggested. Only then did I place the center mini chips ahoy. I baked them another 8 minutes and they were perfectly shaped with a centered chip which was not covered by dough. I am sure this method will work for many other cookies.
