Melted Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Melted Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Originally, I made these in 2014 with chocolate chunks. I just remade them now (2022) with chocolate chips and they were fabulous again! They don’t need a long chill time but definitely need to be cold to bake up perfectly. These are made with melted butter and cornstarch both which contribute to the wonderful texture.

• Stir in the chocolate chips (they are tricky to stick) and chill till cold.

• Use a biscuit ring to swing them around when done for a perfectly round shape.

These are also fabulous stuffed with a homemade rainbow cookie. I only chilled the dough about an hour so it would be manageable for stuffing!
