10 Mini Choc Chip Cookies with Baking Soda & Baking Powder

Hey there, cookie lovers! 🍪 If you’re hunting for the perfect tiny treat, these 10 mini choc chip cookies (using both baking soda & baking powder) are pure magic. They’re crisp on the edges, soft in the center—ideal for snacking or sharing. Let’s dive in!

Classic Mini Choc Chip Cookies

Many consider the mini chocolate chip cookie the perfect bite—crisp edges giving way to a tender, soft center. This recipe uses a dual leavening approach, ensuring each tiny cookie puffs beautifully while remaining delightfully chewy.

Serving: 36 | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (I prefer European-style for richer flavor)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar (organic cane sugar adds a subtle molasses note)
• 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar (dark brown works too, for deeper caramel)
• 1 large egg, at room temperature (essential for even emulsification)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (pure, not imitation—it makes a difference)
• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (spoon and level for accuracy)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda (for spread and tenderness)
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder (adds a gentle lift)
• 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt (my go-to for balanced sweetness)
• 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips (mini chips are ideal, but regular work too)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy, about 1 minute.
3. Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar; beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes, scraping down the bowl as needed.
4. Beat in the room temperature egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated—the mixture should look smooth and glossy.
5. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed just until no streaks of flour remain. Overmixing can toughen the cookies.
7. Fold in the chocolate chips with a rubber spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed without overworking the dough.
8. Using a small cookie scoop (about 1 tablespoon), drop rounded scoops of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. For uniform baking, keep the scoops roughly the same size.
9. Bake one sheet at a time in the center of the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still look slightly underdone—they will set as they cool.
10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. For extra softness, store in an airtight container with a slice of bread.

Meltingly tender with just enough chew, these mini cookies deliver a concentrated burst of chocolate in every bite. Serve them in a vintage tin for gifting, or stack on a cake stand for an effortless dessert spread.

Double Chocolate Mini Cookies

A perfectly balanced bite of rich cocoa and semi-sweet dark chocolate chips, these double chocolate mini cookies deliver an intense chocolate experience in a petite package. With a tender crumb and a fudgy center, they're the ideal treat for when a full-sized cookie feels too indulgent.

Serving: 24 | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

For the Cookies

• 1 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled, not scooped, for tender cookies)
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (I prefer Dutch-process for a deeper color and flavor)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature (if using salted, reduce added salt to a pinch)
• 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar (dark brown adds even more moisture, but light keeps the cocoa forward)
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 large egg, at room temperature (cold egg will seize the batter)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (I use 60% cacao; mini chips distribute more evenly)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until no streaks remain. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl using a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Scrape down the sides as needed.
4. Add the room-temperature egg and vanilla extract, then beat on medium until fully combined, about 1 minute. (Tip: Crack the egg into a small bowl first to avoid shell pieces.)
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed just until the flour disappears. Do not overmix, or the cookies will be tough.
6. Fold in the dark chocolate chips with a rubber spatula until evenly distributed. (Tip: For a more uniform look, set aside a few chips to press onto the tops of the dough balls before baking.)
7. Using a small cookie scoop or two teaspoons, portion the dough into 1-tablespoon balls (about 15g each) and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. (Chilling the dough for 10 minutes before baking helps prevent spreading.)
8. Bake for 9-11 minutes, until the edges are set and the tops look slightly cracked. The centers will appear soft and underbaked—that's perfect for a fudgy texture.
9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. (Tip: If they lose their round shape, use a round cookie cutter to gently scoot the edges while still warm.)

Undeniably, these miniature cookies pack a wallop of chocolate in every bite, with a delicate crunch at the edges giving way to a chewy, almost brownie-like center. Serve them alongside a cold glass of milk or crumbled over vanilla ice cream for an elevated dessert that feels both nostalgic and refined.

Peanut Butter Choc Chip Mini Cookies

Vibrant and utterly irresistible, these Peanut Butter Choc Chip Mini Cookies deliver a perfect balance of nutty creaminess and sweet chocolatey bursts. Crafted for moments when you crave a bite-sized indulgence, they offer a chewy texture that lingers delightfully.

Serving: 36 | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

For the Dough

• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (I prefer natural, no-stir for consistency)
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened (salted butter works too, just reduce added salt)
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1 large egg, at room temperature (room temp ensures even incorporation)
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

• 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips (I use dark chocolate for sophistication)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, beat peanut butter and softened butter until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.
3. Add both sugars and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. (Tip: whisking aerates the flour for a tender crumb.)
6. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just incorporated. Do not overmix.
7. Fold in mini chocolate chips using a spatula. (Tip: reserve a few chips to press on top for a baker's touch.)
8. Using a 1-teaspoon scoop, portion dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. (Tip: dough balls should be small, about 1/2 inch diameter.)
9. Bake for 8-10 minutes until edges are set and lightly golden, but centers still soft. (Tip: remove from oven when they look slightly underdone; they will continue to set on the sheet.)
10. Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Each tiny cookie packs a punch of peanut butter richness, complemented by melting chocolate chips. Enjoy them with a glass of cold milk or tucked into lunchboxes for a delightful surprise. Elevated yet approachable, they embody the joy of homemade treats.

Serving: 36 | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 8 minutes

Ingredients

For the Cookies

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (I prefer unbleached for a cleaner flavor)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (European-style for extra richness)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1 large egg, at room temperature
• 1 teaspoon peppermint extract (pure, not imitation)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup dark chocolate chips (60-70% cacao, my favorite for depth)
• Optional: a few drops green food coloring (I skip it, but you can add for a minty hue)

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, beat softened butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Tip: Use a stand mixer with paddle attachment for best results.
3. Beat in the egg, then add peppermint extract and vanilla extract; mix until combined. If using food coloring, add a few drops now.
4. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just incorporated. Do not overmix — cookies will be tender.
5. Fold in dark chocolate chips with a spatula. Tip: Reserve a few chips to press onto tops before baking for a prettier finish.
6. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. This prevents spreading and enhances mint flavor.
7. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
8. Using a small cookie scoop (about 1 tablespoon), portion dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on prepared sheets.
9. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until edges are lightly golden but centers are still soft. Tip: Rotate pans halfway through for even baking.
10. Let cookies cool on sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire rack to cool completely.

A crisp exterior gives way to a tender, minty center studded with melted chocolate. Serve these alongside a cold glass of milk or crumble them over vanilla ice cream for an extra-special treat.

Gluten-Free Mini Choc Chip Cookies

Delightfully diminutive, these gluten-free mini chocolate chip cookies prove that big flavor comes in small packages. With almond flour as the star, they boast crisp edges and a soft, tender center that will make you forget they're gluten-free. Perfect for a quick treat or an elegant party platter.

Serving: 24 | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

For the Cookies

• 1 cup almond flour (I prefer super-fine for a delicate texture)
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened (always use room-temp for even creaming)
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar (or coconut sugar for a deeper flavor)
• 1 large egg, at room temperature (this ensures even incorporation)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (pure, not imitation—worth it)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt (a pinch of flaky sea salt on top is optional but divine)
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (I like dark chocolate for a sophisticated edge)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (this prevents sticking and ensures even browning).
2. In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar using a spatula or electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. (Tip: Scrape the sides to ensure no lumps remain.)
3. Add the room-temperature egg and vanilla extract, then mix until fully combined. (Tip: Let the egg come to room temp for 15 minutes if needed—cold eggs can seize the butter.)
4. In a separate small bowl, whisk the almond flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly distributed. (Tip: Almond flour tends to clump; sifting ensures a uniform crumb.)
5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just incorporated. Do not overmix—almond flour can become greasy if overworked.
6. Fold in the mini chocolate chips with a gentle hand, reserving a few for topping (pressing a few into the tops of the dough balls yields bakery-style cookies).
7. Using a teaspoon or small cookie scoop, portion the dough into 1-inch balls (about 1 tablespoon each) and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. (Tip: Chill the dough for 10 minutes if it's too sticky to handle.)
8. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers appear just set but still soft. (Tip: Rotate the pan halfway through for even baking.)
9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. They will continue to set as they cool.

Delicately crisp at the edges and wonderfully tender within, these mini gems are perfect with a cup of tea or as a petite dessert. Dust with a little powdered sugar or drizzle with melted dark chocolate for an extra touch of elegance—they vanish quickly, so make a double batch.

Vegan Mini Choc Chip Cookies

Made with rich coconut oil and studded with dairy-free chocolate chips, these mini cookies deliver a chewy, buttery bite without any eggs or butter. Their petite size makes them perfect for snacking or sharing, and they come together in a single bowl for effortless baking.

Serving: 30 | Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

• 1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled; I prefer unbleached)
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt

Wet Ingredients

• ½ cup refined coconut oil, melted and slightly cooled (virgin adds a light coconut flavor – your call)
• ¾ cup packed light brown sugar (I use organic for a deeper molasses note)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk (or any plant milk you have)

Mix-ins

• ½ cup dairy-free mini chocolate chips (I love Enjoy Life brand for consistent melting)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Tip: Parchment prevents sticking and ensures even browning.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, combine the melted coconut oil and brown sugar. Whisk vigorously until smooth and slightly thickened, about 1 minute – this helps dissolve the sugar for a chewier texture.
4. Add the vanilla extract and almond milk, and whisk until fully incorporated. The mixture may look a little separated; that’s fine.
5. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir with a spatula until just combined – no streaks of flour remain. Overmixing can lead to dense cookies.
6. Fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed. For best results, save a few chips to press onto the tops of the scooped dough.
7. Using a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop or two spoons, drop rounded teaspoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Tip: For perfectly round cookies, roll each scoop between your palms before placing on the sheet.
8. Bake for 8–10 minutes, rotating the sheets halfway through. The cookies should be golden around the edges and still soft in the center – they will set as they cool.
9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Tip: Do not skip this rest; it firms up the coconut oil and creates that ideal chew.

Just one bite reveals a crisp edge and a tender, melt-in-your-mouth center, thanks to the perfect balance of coconut oil and brown sugar. These mini treats are lovely as is, or you can sandwich them with a dollop of vegan vanilla frosting for an extra-indulgent twist.

Sugar-Free Mini Choc Chip Cookies

Often, the quest for a satisfyingly sweet yet low-carb treat ends in disappointment. These Sugar-Free Mini Choc Chip Cookies, however, deliver a buttery, tender crumb and bursts of rich chocolate in every petite bite—proving that keto-friendly baking can be truly indulgent.

Serving: 24 | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

None

• 1½ cups super-fine almond flour (I prefer Blue Diamond for its consistent texture)
• ⅓ cup powdered erythritol (like Swerve, for zero bitterness)
• ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened (European-style yields a deeper flavor)
• 1 large egg, at room temperature (helps emulsify beautifully)
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (Madagascar bourbon is my go-to)
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt (Maldon flaky salt for finishing, if desired)
• ½ cup sugar-free chocolate chips (Lily's are my favorite; they hold shape well)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, powdered erythritol, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
3. In a separate large bowl, beat softened butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy, about 30 seconds.
4. Add room-temperature egg and vanilla extract; beat until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low until just combined. Tip: Do not overmix—almond flour can become oily if overworked.
6. Fold in sugar-free chocolate chips with a spatula. For even distribution, reserve a few chips to press onto dough balls later.
7. Chill the dough for 15 minutes in the refrigerator. This prevents spreading and ensures a chewy center.
8. Scoop rounded teaspoons of dough (about 1½ teaspoons each) and roll into balls. Place 2 inches apart on prepared sheets; gently press a couple of reserved chips onto the tops for visual appeal.
9. Bake for 8–10 minutes, until edges are golden and centers appear slightly soft. Tip: Ovens vary; at 9 minutes they should be set but still tender. They will firm up as they cool.
10. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Tip: Cooling entirely on the sheet can cause overbaking from residual heat.

Perfectly petite, these cookies boast a satisfyingly crisp edge and a soft, almost shortbread-like interior. Their inherent richness pairs beautifully with a cup of hot tea or a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream for an elegant low-carb dessert.

Oatmeal Choc Chip Mini Cookies

Humble yet indulgent, these oatmeal chocolate chip mini cookies capture the essence of a classic treat in a petite, snackable form. Each bite offers a satisfying chew from rolled oats and a burst of semisweet chocolate, making them both wholesome and decadent.

Serving: 36 | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened (I prefer European-style butter for its richer flavor)
• 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar (dark brown also works; I love the extra molasses note)
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 large egg, at room temperature (room temp ensures even emulsification)
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (non-negotiable for depth)
• 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (not quick oats; they provide better texture)
• 1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled (to avoid dense cookies)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt (flaky sea salt for sprinkling is optional but lovely)
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (60% cacao chips balance sweetness beautifully)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Parchment ensures even browning and effortless cleanup.
2. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Avoid overmixing; cream just until fluffy to prevent excessive spreading.
3. Add the room-temperature egg and vanilla extract, beating until combined, and scrape down the sides of the bowl.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisking aerates and ensures even distribution of leavening.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix, or the cookies will become tough.
6. Fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula until evenly distributed. Gently fold to avoid crushing the chips.
7. Using a 2-teaspoon cookie scoop or a rounded tablespoon, drop dough balls onto the prepared sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Mini cookies need less room but still require space to spread.
8. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the edges are golden and the centers are still slightly soft. Rotate the pan halfway through for even baking; cookies will continue to set on the sheet.
9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Cooling on the sheet allows the structure to firm up.

Once cooled, these mini cookies boast a perfect balance of hearty oats and rich chocolate, with chewy centers and crisp edges. They are ideal for lunchboxes or pairing with a steaming mug of coffee. For an elegant finish, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on the dough before baking.

Salted Caramel Choc Chip Mini Cookies

The allure of a perfectly balanced cookie—crisp edges, a soft center, pockets of melted chocolate and gooey caramel, finished with a whisper of sea salt—is simply irresistible. These Salted Caramel Choc Chip Mini Cookies deliver that harmony in every bite, making them an elegant treat for any occasion.

Serving: 36 | Prep Time: 20 minutes | Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

For the Cookie Dough

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (I prefer unbleached for a sturdier cookie)
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
• ½ cup unsalted butter, softened (room temperature is essential for even creaming)
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• ½ cup packed light brown sugar (dark brown works too, but light keeps a delicate flavor)
• 1 large egg, at room temperature (this ensures a smooth emulsion)
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips (I opt for 60% cacao for deep richness)
• ½ cup caramel bits (or ½ cup soft caramels, finely chopped)

For Topping

• Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon, for sprinkling

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and fine sea salt. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Tip: Scrape down the bowl once to ensure even mixing.
3. Add the room-temperature egg and vanilla extract, beating until fully incorporated, about 30 seconds.
4. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low just until no streaks remain. Do not overmix; overworking the dough can toughen the cookies.
5. Fold in the chocolate chips and caramel bits with a spatula until evenly distributed. Tip: If your caramel bits are sticky, toss them with a teaspoon of flour before adding to prevent clumping.
6. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Chilling firms the butter, reducing spread and yielding a thicker, chewier cookie.
7. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
8. Using a teaspoon-sized cookie scoop (about 1 heaping teaspoon per cookie), scoop the dough into small balls and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared sheets.
9. Sprinkle a few flakes of sea salt over each dough ball. Tip: Go easy—flaky salt is potent; 2–3 crystals per cookie suffice.
10. Bake one sheet at a time for 9 to 11 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through, until the edges are golden but the centers still appear soft and slightly puffed. For even baking, avoid overcrowding the oven.
11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes—this allows them to set without becoming too crisp—then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Just out of the oven, these miniature confections boast a beautifully crisped exterior that gives way to a tender, buttery crumb. Serve them alongside a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream for an indulgent dessert, or pack them in a tin for a thoughtful homemade gift—their petite size makes them perfect for nibbling.

3. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
4. Add the room-temperature egg and vanilla extract, beating until fully incorporated, scraping down the bowl as needed.
5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed just until combined—do not overmix.
6. Fold in the white chocolate chips and toasted macadamia nuts with a rubber spatula until evenly distributed. (Tip: If the dough feels too sticky, chill it for 30 minutes for easier handling.)
7. Scoop rounded teaspoons of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
8. Bake for 9–11 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through, until the edges are lightly golden and the centers still look slightly soft. (Tip: The cookies will continue to set on the hot pan.)
9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. (Tip: For perfectly even cookies, use a small cookie scoop.)
