  4. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
  5. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in mini dark chocolate chips and dark chocolate chips.
  6. Chill the Dough: Cover the dough with cling wrap and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
