Whether you choose the chocolate cookie dough with white chocolate chips or the classic dough with dark chips, these bite-sized cookies are ideal for lunchboxes, after-school snacks, or even as a sweet side to your morning coffee ☕.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe 💛

  • Two dough variations: chocolatey with white chips or buttery classic with dark chips.
  • Perfect mini size—great for kids and for sharing.
  • Ready in just about 30 minutes ⏱️.
  • No special equipment required, just a bowl and whisk.

Ingredients at a Glance 📝

You’ll make two types of dough:

  • Chocolate dough: rich cocoa flavor with melty white chocolate chunks.
  • Classic dough: buttery cookie base with dark chocolate bites.

Both use simple pantry staples like flour, butter, sugar, and eggs.

Step-by-Step Instructions 👩‍🍳

  1. Cream the butter and sugar until fluffy.
  2. Add dry ingredients (flour, cocoa if using, salt, baking powder).
  3. Mix in the egg and chocolate chunks.
  4. Chill the dough briefly to make it easier to roll.
  5. Shape into small balls and place on a lined baking tray.
  6. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 10–12 minutes until just set or golden on the edges.

That’s it! Tiny, delicious cookies in no time.

Tips for Perfect Mini Cookies ✨

  • Chill dough for 20–30 minutes before shaping to avoid stickiness.
  • For soft centers, bake just until set. For crunchier cookies, bake a little longer.
  • Freeze dough balls to always have fresh cookies on hand.

Serving Ideas 🎉

  • Pack them in kids’ snack boxes 🍱.
  • Serve with hot chocolate or coffee.
  • Stack them in a jar for a homemade gift 🎁.

FAQ ❓

How do I stop the dough from being too sticky?
Chill it in the fridge for 20–30 minutes before rolling.

Can I freeze these mini cookies?
Yes! Freeze either the dough balls or the baked cookies. Bake dough straight from frozen, just add 1–2 extra minutes.


These mini chocolate chip cookies are proof that good things come in small packages. Bake a batch today and enjoy bite-sized happiness with every cookie! 🍫🍪
