Tips
- Adding melted butter instead of solid butter helps the sugars to dissolve.
- Gently bring the cookie balls together so that it stays light and airy.
- Do not smooth the edges of the cookie balls.
- The edges provide extra surface area so that the cookies can get crispy while baking.
- Cover and chill for at least 4 hours so that the flavors can come together.
- If you don like dark chocolate chips, you can raise the milk chocolate ratio or just use semi-sweet entirely.
- Bake these fresh at your friend's birthday party and they were a smash hit!
