Directions

1. Preheat oven at 350 degrees. Cover a rectangular baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the butter, brown and white sugars and vanilla until creamy.
4. Add the egg and keep beating.
5. Now, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients slowly. Do not over beat.
6. When nice and creamy, stop using the mixer and get a spatula or wooded spoon from this point forward.
7. Add the chocolate chips and incorporate in the batter.
8. You can use now either a spoon or a small ice cream scoop to make small balls and place them in your parchment covered baking mold with over 1-inch separation because they will expand as they bake.
9. Depending on your oven calibration, bake them at 350 degrees for about 10 to 15 minutes. They cook fast because they are small.
10. This batter will render approximately 27 small cookies.
11. Enjoy!
