Make Cookies
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cream butter and sugar in a bowl until fluffy, scraping the sides of the bowl halfway through.
Beat in egg, scraping as necessary, to emulsify with butter and sugar mixture.
In a separate bowl, whisk together dry ingredients (masa, flour, baking soda, baking powder, mission spice, and salt).
Add dry ingredients to wet mixture and stir until no dry spots remain.
Add chocolate chips and mix just until dough comes together.
Using a scoop or spoon, create egg yolk-sized balls and flatten slightly.
Place on a parchment lined baking sheet, 1 inch apart.
Bake for 10 minutes, rotating halfway through.
