How to Make Russian Tea Cakes With Chocolate

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add 2 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  6. Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place them on ungreased baking sheets, leaving some space between each ball.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Melt the remaining ½ cup of chocolate chips and drizzle over the cooled cookies.
