Mini Chocolate Chip Shortbread Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 cup butter, softened
    1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1 (12 ounce) package miniature chocolate chips, divided
    1 tablespoon vegetable shortening
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
    Mix flour, butter, sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl until dough is smooth. Reserve 1/4 the chocolate chips; stir remaining chips into dough until evenly distributed. Roll dough into 24 small logs and place a baking sheet.
    Bake in preheated oven until slightly golden around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool in baking sheet for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
    Melt shortening in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; stir in reserved chocolate chips until melted, about 5 minutes. Dip cookies into chocolate and return to baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm.
