Notes
Use cold butter for best results. This allows you to skip chilling the dough and have these cookies in your belly faster. You’ll want to make sure the butter mixture gets light and fluffy even if it takes longer than the three minutes. Use the combination of chocolate chips and chocolate chunks to give it an extra depth of flavor.Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days at room temperature. Freeze dough or pre-cooked cookies (already in the liners) for up to three months in a freezer-safe container. Thaw to room temperature before baking and bake according to the recipe instructions.
