Long before I actually baked up these boxes full of Chocolate Chip Cookie Stars to donate to our preschool silent auction, I had to order the labels! The ingredients were set in print so I had to stick to them. I tweaked the recipe here and there, and consulted an expert cut-out cookie baking friend on her chilling/cutting timing. I went through a couple of batches that weren’t perfect enough for me shape-wise, and those became much enjoyed snacks at Tot Shabbat services and dinners with family friends! Once I had it all down, I packed five star cookies per box, with the sticker label of course!
Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg yolk
1 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preparation:
Cream the butter and sugars. Add the the egg yolk and vanilla. Add the flour and salt. Mix in the mini chocolate chips. Roll out the dough to 1/4″. Cut with Star of David cookie cutter, pushing it through the chocolate chips. Place the cookies on an ungreased baking sheet, and chill in the freezer for 5 minutes. Bake at 350 for 12 minutes. They are great frozen too!
