Ingredients
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 3
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Divide the dough into two equal parts. Wrap one half in plastic wrap and keep aside.
Step 7
To the remaining half of the dough, add the dark chocolate chips and fold them in until evenly distributed.
Step 8
Using a rolling pin, roll out the chocolate chip dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/4-inch thick and shape it into a rectangle.
Step 9
Roll out the plain dough similarly and place it on top of the chocolate chip dough. Roll the two together gently to ensure they adhere.
Step 10
Using a sharp knife, trim the edges and cut the dough into small rectangles or strips, depending on preference.
Step 11
Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 1 inch apart.
Step 12
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Step 13
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 14
Enjoy your delightful low sodium chocolate striped cookies with a favorite beverage.
