Ummm... not to make things complicated... and maybe people do, but, wouldn't chocolate chips kinda get in the way??
I just add mini-chocolate chips to my usual recipe. They're small enough they don't interefere with cutting out the cookie. I know that Karenscookies.net has a very good recipe for a chocolate chip roll-out cookie.
Hi nickdrewnjaysmom - Here's the one I use .. its yummy and holds its shape very well .. I believe it came from Karens Cookies
**Chocolate Chip Cut Out Cookies**
1 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup granulated sugar
½ cup packed light-brown sugar
2 tsp. vanilla extract
½ tsp. salt
1 large egg yolk
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 C semisweet chocolate mini chips
In a large bowl cream the butter, sugars and salt until creamy (about 3 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed). Add vanilla and egg yolk and beat well. Gradually add the flour and beat just until combined. Stir in the chips. Divide dough in halves or thirds and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly flour the work surface and rolling pin and roll dough to 1/4" thickness. Cut into desired shapes and place on parchment parchment or silicone-lined baking sheets. Bake 10-12 min. or till golden brown. Cool on sheet for 5 min. and then transfer to wire rack. The cookies will harden and become firm enough to decorate as soon as the warm chocolate has cooled and hardened; about 30 min.
