Time 2h35m

Yield 18 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-inch-square baking pan with foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on 2 sides.
  • Beat the butter, vanilla and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low; add the confectioners' sugar and beat until just incorporated. Add the flour in 2 batches and beat until smooth. Stir in 1/2 cup chocolate chips with a wooden spoon.
  • Lightly dust your hands with flour and press the dough into the prepared pan. Score the top with a knife to make 9 strips, then score the strips in half to make 18 pieces. Bake until the edges are firm and the top is dry, 40 to 45 minutes.

  • Cut the shortbread into pieces along thescored lines. Put the remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl; microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until melted. Drizzle over the shortbread and let stand until set, about 1 hour.

Time 1h15m

Yield 15-17 3-inch, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature (2 sticks)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup nuts, chopped (Walnuts, Pecans & Mac Nuts work well!)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275°. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper or leave them ungreased.
  • Sift the Flour, Baking Powder and Salt together into a small bowl and set aside.
  • Using an electric mixer on medium speed, cream the Butter and Sugar together in a medium-sized mixing bowl until light and fluffy, about 1-1/2 minutes. Stop the mixer to scrape the bowl several times with a rubber spatula.
  • Add the dry ingredients on low speed and continue to blend for 10 seconds. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until fluffy, 2 to 2-1/2 minutes. Scrape the bowl.
  • Add the Chocolate Chips and Nuts with several turns of the mixer, then complete the mixing by hand with a wooden spoon.
  • Measure out generous rounded tablespoonfuls of dough and roll them into balls with your hands.
  • Place the balls 1-1/2 inches apart on the cookie sheets and press them down lightly to form a flat bottom (cookie should be about 1/2-inch thick).
  • Bake the cookies until they are crunchy and golden, about 1 hour. To test for doneness, remove one cookie from the sheet and cut it in half. There should be no doughy strip in the center. Allow the cookies to cool on a rack.
  • Makes 15 - 17 cookies.

PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE CHIP SHORTBREAD COOKIES



PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE CHIP SHORTBREAD COOKIES image

Categories     Chocolate

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 stick, (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature (important!)
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup confectioner's sugar
scant 1/2 tsp sea salt
3/4 cup milk chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Set oven to 325F Cream the butter and the peanut butter together in a stand mixer, with a hand mixer, or a wooden spoon. Beat in the vanilla. Whisk the dry ingredients together and add to the butter mixture. Mix until the dough comes together. Stir in the chips, and turn the dough out onto a piece of waxed paper. Gently pull the dough together and form it into a log. If it is still crumbly, work it with your hands until it holds together smoothly. Roll it up in the paper, smoothing the shape as you go. Twist the ends securely and refrigerate for at least a couple of hours. Slice the log into slices with a sharp knife. Not too thick, not too thin, about 1/3 inch. If a slice crumbles a bit, just smoosh the dough back together. These don't have to be perfect disks. Bake on a parchment or silpat lined baking sheet at 325 for about 12-14 minutes. The cookies will not be browned, and they may look undone, but don't over bake. One of the joys of shortbread cookies is that they fall apart and melt in your mouth. Let the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack.

CHOCOLATE CHIP ESPRESSO SHORTBREAD COOKIES



Chocolate Chip Espresso Shortbread Cookies image

My son loves shortbread. He had his first taste of it when he was in Scotland on a missions trip when he was 16. He brought me a shortbread mold as a thank you for getting him all together for his trip and identically shaving all his hair off before he went. (I had never used the hair clippers before and he wanted me to cut...

Provided by Marsha Gardner

Categories     Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 Tbsp instant espresso powder
1 Tbsp boiling water
8 oz butter, unsalted, no substitutions this is a butter cookie
2/3 c powdered sugar
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 c all purpose flour
3/4 c semi-sweet mini chocloate chips or chopped bitter-sweet chocolate
powdered sugar for dusting, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Dissolve the espresso in the boiling water, and set aside to cool to tepid. Working with a stand mixer, preferably fitted with a paddle attachment, or with a hand mixer in a large bowl, beat the butter and confectioners' sugar together on medium speed for about 3 minutes, until the mixture is very smooth.
  • 2. Beat in the vanilla and espresso, then reduce the mixer speed to low and add the flour, mixing only until it disappears into the dough. Don't work the dough much once the flour is incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips with a sturdy rubber spatula.
  • 3. Using the spatula, transfer the soft, sticky dough to a gallon-size zipper-lock plastic bag. Put the bag on a flat surface, leaving the top open, and roll the dough into a 9 x 10 1/2 inch rectangle that's 1/4 inch thick. As you roll, turn the bag occasionally and lift the plastic from the dough so it doesn't cause creases. When you get the right size and thickness, seal the bag, pressing out as much air as possible, and refrigerate the dough for at least 2 hours, or for up to 2 days.
  • 4. Position the racks to divide the oven into thirds and preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment or silicone mats. Put the plastic bag on a cutting board and slit it open. Turn the firm dough out onto the board (discard the bag) and, using a ruler as a guide and a sharp knife, cut the dough into 1 1/2-inch squares. Transfer the squares to the baking sheets and carefully prick each one twice with a fork, gently pushing the tines through the cookies until they hit the sheet.
  • 5. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, rotating the sheets from top to bottom and front to back at the midway point. The shortbreads will be very pale-they shouldn't take on much color. Transfer the cookies to a rack. If you'd like, dust the cookies with confectioners' sugar while they are still hot. Cool the cookies to room temperature before serving.

CHOCOLATE DIPPED CHOCOLATE CHIP SHORTBREAD FINGERS RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Chocolate Dipped Chocolate Chip Shortbread Fingers Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by DDownes

Number Of Ingredients 7

Chocolate Chip Shortbread Fingers
1 C. butter, at room temp
2 C. flour
1 C. semi sweet mini chocolate chips, divided (or 1/2 C. semi sweet and 1/2 C. milk chocolate)
1/2 C. powdered sugar
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper (or aluminum foil). Beat butter, salt, pwd sugar and vanilla until smooth and fluffy. Add in flour 1 cup at a time until dough forms. Fold in ½ C. mini chocolate chips. Preheat oven to 350. Cover and refrigerate dough for at least 20 minutes. Form dough into "fingers" using your hands-1/2 inch thick, length-2-3 inches works well. If dough gets too soft, just put in frig to chill again. Place cookies on sheet ¼ inch apart. Bake 8-10 minutes (mine were closer to 10-12) or until bottoms become golden brown (mine never did get very brown). Remove to wire rack to cool. While they are cooling, melt ½ C. chips (semi sweet or milk chocolate-your preference. I made some of each kind) in a small, heavy pot. Immediately dip one end of the cookie into the chocolate. Let the cookies set, about 20 minutes. Store in an airtight container.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips. This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of the cookies.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies to keep their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them to keep their shape and prevent them from becoming too soft.

Conclusion:

Chocolate chip cookies are a classic for a reason. They are delicious, easy to make, and loved by people of all ages. With so many different recipes to choose from, there is sure to be a chocolate chip cookie recipe that everyone will enjoy.
