4.  Slowly mix in the dry mixture into the other bowl with the creamed ingredients. Once it is all mixed, fold in the chocolate chips.

5. Once everything is incorporated, cover to bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough chill. If you prefer the refrigerator,  let the dough chill for at least an hour. For a quick chill, put it in the freezer for about 30 minutes.

6. While the dough is chilling, preheat oven at 350 degrees fahrenheit and line the bottom of the springform pan with parchment paper.

7. Once dough is chilled, remove the dough out of the pan and press the dough into the pan.

8. Then bake for 20-25 minutes, and then raise the oven temperature to broil to cook the top of the cookie for about 2-3 minutes or until the top is browned.

9. Let cookie completely cool then you can ice the cookie with a border and decorations.
