Description
A deliciously soft and chewy cookie cake topped with creamy frosting.
Ingredients
Scale
- For the Cookie Cake
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups chocolate chips (or your favorite mix-ins)
- For the Frosting
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2–3 tablespoons heavy cream (or milk)
- Sprinkles (optional, for decoration)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Spread the cookie dough evenly into the prepared cake pan.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set. A toothpick inserted should come out with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookie cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix until combined. Add the vanilla extract and enough heavy cream to reach your desired consistency.
- Beat until the frosting is light and fluffy.
- Once the cookie cake is completely cool, spread the frosting evenly on top.
- Decorate with sprinkles if desired.
- Cut into wedges and serve.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container.
- Substitute chocolate chips with nuts or dried fruits if preferred.
