Step 1

Preheat oven to 350. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

In a mixing bowl, mix at medium-low speed, the margarine with the sugar and brown sugar. Raise speed to medium-high and cream until light and fluffy. Turn down the speed a little. Add vanilla and eggs. Mix to incorporate Add half the flour mixture. Mix. Add remaining flour mixture and mix until just combined. Add chips.

Spray muffin tins with nonstick cooking spray. Fill each muffin cup a quarter of the way with a large ping pong sized ball of cookie dough. Flatten slightly to cover the bottom. Stack 2 chocolate squares in the center. Cover with a second walnut-sized ball of cookie dough, flattening it to cover the chocolate completely.

Place muffin tin onto a cookie sheet and bake until the tops are golden brown (not wet looking) about 20-25 minutes, depending on size of tin.
