Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate large bowl, cream together softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined, creating a smooth mixture.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden.
  7. Once cooled, create a small indentation in each cookie and spoon in the vanilla custard.
  8. Melt chocolate chips with vegetable oil in a microwave, stirring until smooth, then drizzle over the filled cookies.
