    ½ cup Chocolate chips
  • Preheat the oven to 350F, and line the baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Scoop the dough onto the baking sheet as the size of a small tangerine. Leave a 2-inch space between the cookie dough balls, Sprinkle their top with a few mini chocolate chips.
    ¼ cup Mini chocolate chips
  • Bake them for 8-10 minutes.
  • Turn the baking sheet halfway through the baking. Cookies are ready when their edges are set, but the center is still soft and underbaked looking. Cookies keep baking after they are out of the oven. Do not overbake them.
  • Immediately after bringing them out of the oven, using a large round cookie cutter, go around the edges and round up the uneven edges. Let them cool down on the tray, then transfer them to the cooling rack.
