  • 1/3 cup confectioner’s sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips

  2. Add flour and salt. Mix until combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
  3. Place dough on wax paper and shape into a log about 12 inches long. Twist ends of waxed paper to close. Refrigerate dough for at least 2 hours.
  4. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  5. Cut into slices about 1/3 inch thick with a knife. Place on greased baking sheets. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes. Bottoms should not be brown. Let cookies sit on sheets for about 10 minutes before removing to a rack to cool. They can break apart if you try to move them right away.
