Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and form each portion into a ball. Just until it comes together.
Next press chocolate chips all over the top and sides of the cookies.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Meanwhile preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Serve!
- The dough will be dry and crumbly but that's ok. You want the dough to have that texture.
- Don't over mix after you add the flour or else the cookies will be tough.
- Cooling the dough is crucial so the cookies don't overspread.
