A gussied-up version of a traditional chocolate chip cookie, these cookies include rich, tender shortbread combined with semi-sweet chocolate chips and topped with a dusting of powdered sugar.
I have eaten a lot of cookies in my years, but these Chocolate Chips Shortbreads are still my top choice when I have a cookie craving (which is often) or want to make a special treat for friends and loved ones. They have the most scrumptious, shortbread texture, the perfect amount of sweetness and, yesssssssss, chocolate!
I love these cookies so much I entered them in the 2022 Minnesota State Fair’s Blue Ribbon Baking Contest this year and they got a third place ribbon! The judges’ comments read, “great taste, they melt in your mouth.” I couldn’t agree more!
Why You’ll Love these Chocolate Chip Shortbread Cookies
- Besides their irresistible taste and texture, these award-winning cookies are so easy to make with a short ingredient list and a few simple steps.
- A gussied up version of regular chocolate chip cookies, these pretty cookies make for a perfect addition to adorn treat trays or a dessert table at a potluck or shower. They are also a very “giftable” cookie!
- They freeze well! I should know as my mom often has a batch of these cookies in the freezer for me when I go home to visit.
