Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup cornstarch
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the vanilla extract until well incorporated.
In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and cornstarch. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth. Stir in 1 tablespoon of milk to create a glossy texture.
Divide the cookie dough into two portions. Add the melted chocolate mixture to one portion and mix until fully incorporated.
On a clean surface, roll out both the plain and chocolate doughs into equal-sized logs, about 12 inches long.
Gently twist the two dough logs together to create a marbled effect. Slice the dough into 24 equal pieces and shape each piece into a small disc.
Place the discs on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are light golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your delightful Whirl O Way Cookies!
