Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups / 150 g / 5.3 oz all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup / 1 stick / 115 g / 4 oz salted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup / 100 g / 3.5 oz granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup / 100 g / 3.5 oz light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp rose extract

Add-ins

  • 1 cup / 200 g / 7 oz semisweet chocolate chips
  • Rose chocolate chips (optional, for decorating)

Instructions

  1. Prepare for baking: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C, gas mark 4). Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Also line a small baking sheet with parchment; this will be used later for freezing the cookies. Set all aside.
  2. Combine dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder until evenly mixed. Set aside.
  3. Cream butter and sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light, fluffy, and well combined, about 2 minutes.
  4. Incorporate egg and rose extract: Add the egg and rose extract to the creamed butter and sugars. Mix well, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl to fully incorporate.
  5. Add dry ingredients: Gradually mix in the flour mixture until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips: Gently stir in the semisweet chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
  7. Drop cookies: Using a small cookie scoop or spoon (about 2 tablespoons), drop dough balls onto the prepared cookie sheets, spacing them about 2 inches (5 cm) apart to allow for spreading.
  8. Bake: Place the trays in the preheated oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges just start to turn golden brown but the centers remain soft.
  9. Add chocolate roses: While the cookies are still hot and soft on the baking sheet, quickly press a few rose-shaped chocolate chips onto the top of each cookie. Be careful not to burn yourself during this step.
  10. Freeze cookies: Immediately transfer the decorated cookies to the small prepared baking sheet and place them in the freezer for 5 minutes. This helps cool the cookies quickly and sets the chocolate roses, preventing them from melting.
  11. Serve: Once the chocolate roses have set, transfer the cookies to a cooling rack. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container for later.

Notes

  • The freezing step is essential to set the decorative chocolate roses and keep them intact.
  • Do not overmix the dough to ensure soft, tender cookies.
  • You can substitute rose extract with rose water, but use sparingly as it tends to be more potent.
  • If rose chocolate chips are unavailable, regular chocolate chips or other floral chocolates can be used for decoration.
  • Cookies are best eaten within 3-4 days for maximum freshness, or freeze for longer storage.
