Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Gather 1 ½ cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in microwave until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Spoon the melted chocolate into lined muffin cups, ensuring a generous coating. Place the tray in the freezer for approximately 10 minutes.
  3. Cream together ½ cup of softened butter, ¼ cup of granulated sugar, and ¼ cup of brown sugar in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Blend in 1 teaspoon of vanilla, 1 tablespoon of milk, and a pinch of salt. Gradually mix in 1 cup of heat-treated flour until smooth, then fold in ½ cup of mini chocolate chips.
  4. Fill each chocolate cup with the prepared cookie dough, pressing down gently. Leave space at the top.
  5. Melt the remaining chocolate mixture gently, adding 1 teaspoon of coconut oil for a glossy finish. Spoon over the filled dough, covering completely. Add extra mini chocolate chips on top if desired.
  6. Place the tray back into the freezer for 10–15 minutes to set completely. Once hardened, transfer to an airtight container for storage.
