Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 4 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 20 pieces mini chocolate squares or chocolate chips (for the surprise filling)
- 0.5 cup coarse sugar (for rolling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
Portion out approximately 1.5 tablespoons of dough and flatten it into a disk shape in your palm.
Place a mini chocolate square or a few chocolate chips in the center of the dough disk, then carefully wrap the dough around the chocolate, sealing it completely to create a round ball.
Roll each dough ball in the coarse sugar to coat the outside evenly.
Place the sugared dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them at least 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the tops are set.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy the crispy outer layer and the delightful surprise of melted chocolate inside!
