Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper, ensuring it covers the sides for easy removal later.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until well combined and smooth.
Add the vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture, stirring until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the all-purpose flour and salt to the wet ingredients. Stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until a thick dough forms.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and press it into an even layer using your hands or the back of a spatula. Make sure the dough reaches the edges of the pan and is as flat as possible.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges of the cookie brittle are golden brown and crisp.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the brittle cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, use the parchment paper to lift the brittle from the pan.
Break the cookie brittle into irregular pieces by hand or gently cut into shards with a sharp knife.
Store the brittle in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. Enjoy as a snack, dessert, or gift!
