Ingredients:
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
For the Milk Chocolate Coating:
2 cups milk chocolate chips
Sprinkles for decoration
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
2. Cream the butter and sugars: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and creamy.
3. Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
5. Mix wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
6. Add chocolate chips: Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
7. Form cookie dough balls: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
8. Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may still look slightly undercooked.
9. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
10. Prepare the chocolate coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the milk chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and melted.
11. Dip cookies: Dip half of each cooled cookie into the melted chocolate, then place them back on the wire racks. Immediately sprinkle the dipped portion with sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
12. Set: Allow the chocolate to set completely before serving or storing the cookies.
13. Enjoy: Serve these beautiful and delicious cookies to your nieces and watch their faces light up with delight!
