Chocolate Chip Shortbread Cookies

In memory of a great lady, a twist off her wonderful recipe.



Ingredients:
1 stick melted butter
1/4 sugar
1/5 cup powder sugar; if you don't have a 1/5 cup, just use slightly less than a 1/4 cup ;)
1 Tbsp. Vanilla
1 cup + 2 Tbsp. flour
3/4 cup chocolate chips (milk, semi-sweet or dark chocolate depending on your preference)

Directions:  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Mix melted butter, sugars and vanilla until combined.  Add flour and mix until mixture sticks together and is the consistency of play dough.  Add chocolate chips and mix until just incorporated.   Mixture will be crumbly, press together to form cookies into 1 inch balls.  Place on cookie sheet spread about 1 inch apart.  Bake for about ten minutes or until done.  Cookies will not get light brown.  Let cool on wire rack.  Store in airtight container once cool.  Makes about 30 small cookies.  Enjoy!
