Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Combine flour, butter, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth. Reserve ¼ chocolate chips; stir remaining ¾ chips into dough until evenly distributed. Roll dough into 24 small logs; place on a baking sheet.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until slightly golden around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 4
Melt shortening in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; stir in reserved ¼ chocolate chips until melted, about 5 minutes. Dip cookies into melted chocolate; return to the baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm.
