Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1 cup chocolate melts or chocolate chips for topping

Instructions
- Heat-Treat the flour: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the flour evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 5-7 minutes. Let it cool completely before using.
- Cream the butters and sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Mix in vanilla and salt: Add the vanilla extract and salt, mixing until fully incorporated.
- Incorporate the flour: Gradually stir in the heat-treated flour, ensuring the dough remains smooth and creamy.
- Fold in the chocolate chips: Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips.
- Spoon into cupcake liners: Line a muffin or cupcake tray with cupcake liners and scoop the cookie dough mixture into each liner.
- Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate melts or chips in 30-second intervals until smooth.
- Cover the cookie dough cups: Pour the melted chocolate over the filled liners, smoothing it if necessary.
- Chill and top: Refrigerate for about 30 minutes until the chocolate hardens, then top each cup with M&Ms.
