Chocolate Chip Cookie-Cakes

It's almost the weekend!

Whoo Hoo!

And, I have a great idea

for all of you weekend bakers!

Who doesn't love Chocolate Chip Cookies?!

Chocolate Chip Cupcakes are even better, in my book!

I've even seen Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

stuffed Cupcakes at Cupcake Project!

But, I am one of those people who 

prefer cooked cookies to dough.

So, I wanted to combine the two

into one sock-it-to-me cupcake!

Have you tried

ONE BOWL CUPCAKE BATTER

FOR TWO?

Okay, well you totally have to!

Here is How Sweet It Is's Recipe:

1 egg white

2 Tbsp. sugar

2 Tbsp. butter, melted

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1/4 cup flour

1/4 tsp. baking powder

Pinch of salt

1 1/2 Tbsp. milk

{I did leave out the milk so the chocolate chips wouldn't fall to the bottom}

3 Tbsp. chopped Ghiridelli 60% Cocoa chips. 

This recipe actually made 3 cupcakes for me since the liners only needed to be filled 1/2 full.

Then, I made the cookie dough. If you don't have a great Chocolate Chip cookie recipe, my best-ever recipe can be found here. Or, you could just use some store bought dough as well.

To assemble, first spoon batter into 3 cupcake liners - only HALF full. Place a flat round of cookie dough on top and cook at 350 degrees for 14-16 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when tested in the center of a cupcake and the cookie on top is browned.

Just look:

It's a cookie...it's a cupcake...

Now, for the frosting: 

I'd say to go with whichever is your favorite...in my house, we like

 Cream Cheese

2 oz. Cream Cheese

1 Tbsp. Butter, room temp 

Splash of Vanilla

Powder Sugar

Beat first 3 ingredients until well incorporated. Add sugar slowly until your preferred consistancy is reached. I also had some left over Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting, so I swirled them together!

{Buttercream or even this Cookie Dough Frosting by Cupcake Project will be great, too!}

These are perfect for all you chocolate chip cookie fanatics {like my hubby and me} out there! Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!! Enjoy and Happy Baking!
