Frosted chocolate chip cookies (with chips ahoy mixed in)

Uncategorized Leave a comment

I have seen suggestions to add finely ground cookies or pop tarts to homemade cookies for a neat twist so I have done that with these chocolate chip cookies, adding 2 cups of finely ground chips ahoy.

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount.  Also chill the individual doughs for a few hours to keep them puffy.  And, preheat your oven before baking.

  • Cookies ingredients list
  • 1 1/2 cups butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 3 3/4 cups flour
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cups finely ground chips ahoy cookies (save a few tbs to sprinkle on top of frosting)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Directions – in a bowl, cream butter, brown sugar and sugar.  Add eggs and vanilla.  Blend in finely ground chips ahoy cookies.  Mix in dry ingredients.  Stir in chocolate chips.  Scoop out 1/4 cups of dough.  Chill a few hours.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.  Stagger cookies on sheet.  Bake 10 to 12 minutes, no longer.  Cool completely.

  • Frosting ingredients
  • 6 tbs butter, softened
  • 1 tbs vanilla
  • 2 1/4 cups powdered sugar (scooped from your bag into measuring cup)
  • 3 tbs heavy cream

In a bowl, cream butter and vanilla.  Blend in powdered sugar.  Add enough cream to get the consistency you want. Frost cookies.  Sprinkle extra crushed chips ahoy on top.  Store in covered container.

What better way to kick off the week than with extra large chocolate chip cookies with extra chocolate chips? These include finely ground chips ahoy cookies.  A neat addition.  

These are 1/4 cup of chocolate chip cookies dough with extra chips pressed into the top before baking. I didn’t opt to chill the dough before baking so they spread a bit more than I prefer, so maybe next time I chill them a but before baking.

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount.  And preheat the oven before baking.

  • Ingredients list
  • 1 1/2 cups butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar (packed into your measuring cup)
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tbs water
  • 2 cups chips ahoy cookies, finely crushed in a food processor
  • 3 3/4 cups flour (scooped from your flour bag into your measuring cup)
  • 2 top baking soda
  • 1 top baking powder
  • 1 top salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Directions – in a bowl, cream butter, brown sugar and sugar.  Add eggs, water and vanilla.  Blend in half of flour with baking soda, baking powder, salt and crushed chips ahoy.  Mix in rest of flour.  Fold in chips.  Scoop out 1/4 cups of dough.  Gently press extra chips in tops of cookie dough.  Chill individual doughs.   When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or nonstick baking liners.  Bake 12 to 14 minutes, no longer. 

Cool completely.   Store in covered container.

NFL Draft Day 2024 cookies

Uncategorized Leave a comment

To celebrate the start of the NFL draft tomorrow, I made chocolate chip cookies with some ground up chips ahoy mixed in and frosting some of them.  All of them are not frosted because I either make too much or too little frosting.   And tonight, I made too little.  I think the unfrosted ones will still be well-received.

 

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount.  I also chilled the individual dough overnight to try and keep the cookies from spreading too thin.  

  • Ingredients list
  • 1 1/2 cups butter
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 4 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tbs cornstarch
  • 2 cups crushed chips ahoy
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips

Directions – in a bowl, cream butter, brown sugar and sugar.  Add eggs and vanilla.  Blend in dry ingredients.  Fold in ground chips ahoy.  Mix in chips.  scoop out 1/4 cups dough.   Chill, in covered container, overnight.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.  Stagger on cookie sheet.  Leave some room.  These do spread.  Bake 10 to 11 minutes (no longer).  Cool completely. 

  • Frosting ingredients
  • 6 tbs butter, melted
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • Heavy cream or milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Directions – in a bowl, combine butter and powdered sugar.  Add cream or milk, 1 tbs at a time, to get the consistency you want.  Stir in vanilla.  Frost cookies.  Store in covered container.
