# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Let that flour chill until it’s totally cold before tossing it in with anything else. Put flour out on a baking sheet, and bake at 175°C or 350°F for about 5 minutes. Give it a stir every so often. Make sure your kitchen thermometer says at least 74°C or 165°F. After it’s baked, wait until it isn’t warm.
02 -
Grab a big bowl and toss in the butter (nice and soft), brown sugar, plus the white sugar. Mix them all up with energy until you’ve got a fluffy, smooth combo.
03 -
Splash the milk in, add in the vanilla, then pour in the food coloring. Give it a big stir so it’s super even.
04 -
Sift in the salt, cocoa powder, and flour you’ve already cooled down. Stir until you don’t see any powdery bits hanging out.
05 -
Drop the mini chips into your dough. Gently mix so they’re all over, not just in one spot.
06 -
Scoop the dough out into bowls to snack on, or pile some onto your favorite dessert if that’s your thing.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
If the flour’s even a little warm when you add it, your butter will melt and turn everything greasy, so let it cool all the way down first.
