Chocolate Chip Shortbread Cookies



 

1 cup butter, softened

2/3 cup powdered sugar

½ tsp. vanilla

2 cups flour

¾ cup mini chocolate chips

8 oz. melting chocolate melting wafers

 

Beat butter and powdered sugar in a bowl until light and fluffy (with either a hand or stand mixer). Add in vanilla and mix. Add flour just until mixed in. Fold in mini chocolate chips. Place dough in a one gallon re-sealable bag. With a rolling pin, roll the dough ¼ inch thick inside the bag. You could also roll between two sheets of parchment paper. Refrigerate on a flat surface for 1-2 hours. Remove the bag (I cut mine off) and cut dough into squares or rectangles with a butter knife or pizza cutter. Transfer pieces to a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes at 325 degrees. When cookies are done, melt the melting wafers in a microwave safe bowl at 30 second increments until melted. Dip 1/3 to ½ of each cookie in the chocolate or drizzle it on top. Let cool and serve.
