Tips

  • Do not put all the flour at once; add it gradually until the dough comes off the walls.
  • Mix chocolate chips for only a few seconds to prevent them from melting.
  • The dough should be clingy but not too clingy.
  • For shaping, you can form a small smooth ball and roll it into a stick.
  • Bake until golden at the bottom for maximum softness.
