How to Make Chinese Marble Cookies
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of shortening and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips using a knife, cutting through the dough to create a marble effect. Do not stir.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on an ungreased baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Flatten each ball slightly using the bottom of a glass coated with granulated sugar.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Do not overbake.
- Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before serving. Enjoy!
