Can't decide between cookies or cake? Have both! I discovered this recipe on a blog ( ) and made a few adjustments to the directions as the original was a little difficult to follow. These cupcakes are absolutely delicious and complete with a raw cookie dough surprise on the inside! Topped with some cookie dough icing and this makes for a fantastic treat for any occasion! (This recipe looks overwhelming, I admit, but it's pretty easy and well worth the effort!) NOTE: If you use any flour other than self-rising cake flour as the recipe calls for, it will cut the number of cupcakes in half!!) Ingredients:
cupcake batter |
1 1/4 cups unsalted butter, melted |
3/4 cup self-rising cake flour |
3 tablespoons white sugar |
5 tablespoons brown sugar |
2 large eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
3 tablespoons milk |
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips |
cookie dough batter (eggless) |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted |
1 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 cup white sugar |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
4 tablespoons milk |
3/4 cup semisweet mini chocolate chips |
cookie dough frosting |
1 cup eggless cookie dough batter |
1/2 cup heavy cream |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Mix together butter, flour, sugar, eggs, vanilla, baking powder and milk until smooth and well-mixed.
3. Fill 12 cupcake liners approximately 3/4 of the way up. If using anything other than self-rising cake flour, fill only 6 cupcake liners to the very top.
4. Bake at 400F for 15-20 minutes.
5. While cupcakes are in the oven, combine flour, salt, butter, sugar, vanilla and milk in a large bowl.
6. Mix well until all the flour has disappeared. Set aside one cup of the batter for the icing.
7. Add in chocolate chips to the remaining batter and set aside.
8. In a small bowl, mix together one cup of cookie dough batter with 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Mix well until consistency is that of icing.
9. When cupcakes are cooled, use a paring knife to cut a hole in the top.
10. Frost cupcakes with cookie-dough icing.
11. Roll cookie dough into little balls and plop them in the centre of the cupcakes.
12. Serve and enjoy!
