- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup white sugar
- ⅓ cup milk powder
- 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
- ½ cup margarine
- ½ cup butter
- 1 cup chocolate chips or chocolate chunks
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl, add brown sugar, white sugar, salt, milk powder, baking powder, margarine, butter, all-purpose flour and vanilla extract if using. Using a stand mixer, a pastry cutter or your hands, mix all ingredients until the dough is formed and no dry spots remain.
Add the chocolate chips or chunks, mixing until incorporated.
Using a cookie scoop, a spoon or your hands, scoop 2 to 2.5 tablespoons of dough. Shape each piece into a ball.
Place each cookie into a parchment paper lined baking sheet, flattening each ball. Leave at least an inch between them just to prevent everything from baking together into a big cookie.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cookies look lightly golden on the edges. Careful not to over-bake.
Let the cookies rest on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before moving them to a cooling rack.
At first, it will look like this dough will never come together: it will start very crumbly. Keep mixing and after less than a minute it will come together.
Ingredients
- Margarine and butter. You can use salted or unsalted. If using salted, skip the salt. Don’t use only butter - you need the margarine to prevent the cookies from spreading. Also don’t substitute margarine with shortening.
- Vanilla extract. It’s an optional ingredient. If wanted, you can skip this ingredient.
Flavor variations
- Make it double chocolate: while measuring the last all-purpose flour cup, lessen it by 3 tablespoons. Add 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder. Try also substituting chocolate chips for chunks of your favorite chocolate.
- Make it white chocolate heaven: substitute chocolate chips for white chocolate chips, and add ¼ cup of sliced almonds if desired.
