Cookie-in-a-Cupcake

Cookie-in-a-Cupcake

This week I had a bake sale and couldn't decide whether I should make cupcakes or cookies.... so naturally I just made both. Everyone at the bake sale loved them and both batches completely sold out!

I started by making vanilla cupcake batter. 

Vanilla Cupcake Recipe

Ingredients:                                                                                                               Yield: 12 Cupcakes

2/3 cup unsalted butter, softened          

3/4 cup sugar                                        

1 1/2 cup self rising flour                     

3 eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F 

2- In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy using an electric mixer

3- Add eggs one at a time, blending well after each

4- Add vanilla and flour. Mix just until fully incorporated

The next step was to make the batter for my chocolate chip cookies.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Ingredients:                                                                                                                      Yield: 4 dozen 

1 cup unsalted softened butter

3/4 cup sugar

3/4 packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 eggs

2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

1- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F

2- In a large bowl, beat butter, sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy

3- Beat in eggs

4- Add flour, salt, and baking soda and beat until fully blended

5- Stir in chocolate chips

Once both batters are complete, fill your cupcake tins with a thin layer of cupcake batter.

Once that is in, place a dollop of cookie batter in the middle. 

Then fill the rest of the cupcake wrapper with cupcake batter, completely covering the cookie dough.

You can take the rest of the cookie dough and bake them on a baking tray in the oven for 15 minutes to be used for decoration.

Place the cupcake tray in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until the cupcakes look golden brown.

Once the cupcakes are out, allow them to cool before you decorate them. 

Pipe a swirl of creamy white icing onto the cupcake. Then you can place a finished cookie and place it on the top on an angle for decoration. Your cookie-in-a-cupcake cupcakes are now done!

They will look delicious and taste evcen better! I hope you enjoy making and eating these cupcakes!

Happy baking and

don't forget to put a burry on it!
