🌟 Tips for the Perfect Mini Cookies

  • Chill the dough for 20 minutes if it feels too soft—this helps prevent excess spreading.

  • Use a small cookie scoop for evenly sized cookies.

  • Swap mini chocolate chips for white chocolate, peanut butter, or butterscotch chips for fun variations.

  • Double the recipe and freeze half the dough—bake straight from the freezer for fresh cookies anytime.

🥡 Storage

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

  • Freeze baked cookies or dough balls for up to 3 months.

 These Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies are chewy, chocolate-packed, and completely irresistible. Whether you pop one or a handful, they’ll quickly become a go-to recipe in your kitchen.
