Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter until creamy and smooth (about 2-3 minutes).
  3. Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt to the creamed butter, then mix until well combined (1-2 minutes).
  4. Gradually add all-purpose flour, mixing on low speed until fully blended; scrape down the sides to incorporate all ingredients.
  5. Gently fold in mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  6. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough, roll into a ball, and place on the lined baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden but centers appear soft.
  8. Sprinkle powdered sugar over cookies while warm to create a snowy effect.
  9. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
