Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

2 ½ cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups white sugar
⅔ cup butter-flavored shortening
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 (12 ounce) package miniature semisweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons milk

Steps:

Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
Beat sugar and shortening together using an electric mixer in a mixing bowl. Add eggs 1 at a time while continuing to beat until combined. Beat in vanilla extract followed by cocoa; beat in chocolate chips. Beat in flour mixture and milk, alternating, until combined. Chill dough in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Roll cookie dough as thin as chocolate chips will allow. Cut out cookies using a biscuit cutter and place on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until edges are set, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, 15 to 20 minutes. Store in an airtight container in the freezer.
