Fudge Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipes

STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and toast for about 5 minutes until it turns brown and smells nutty. Pour the brown butter into a large bowl. Let sit for 30 minutes to cool before starting to make the dough.
• To the bowl with the cooled butter, add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, and yogurt. Using an electric hand mixer or stand mixer, beat for 2-3 minutes until fluffy.
• Add the egg and egg yolk and beat again until fluffy and well-combined.
• In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Sift ⅓ of the dry ingredients at a time into the wet ingredients. Beat just until incorporated, then scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula between each addition. Make sure not to overmix.
• Add the chocolate chips and mini chocolate chips to the dough and gently fold just to incorporate. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours. You can also store the stuffings in the fridge so they're easier to work with later.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Line a baking sheet (or 2) with parchment paper.
• Using an ice cream scooper, scoop out 3 tablespoons of chilled dough and flatten out into a ¼-inch (6 mm) thick circle.
• Add 1 tablespoon of your stuffing of choice, such as caramel, cookie butter, chocolate hazelnut spread, or peanut butter, to the center of the dough round, and fold the edges of the dough around the stuffing. Seal tightly and roll into a ball. Repeat with the rest of the dough and stuffings.
• To the outside of the cookie dough balls, add your choice of toppings, such as mini marshmallows, chopped candy bar, chocolate chips, crushed chocolate sandwich cookies, white chocolate chips, rainbow sprinkles, pretzel pieces, or crushed potato chips. Press the toppings firmly into the dough, so they don't fall off. Repeat with the remaining stuffed cookie dough balls.
• Place the stuffed and decorated cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet approximately 3 inches (7 cm) apart, so the cookies don't spread into one another. You may need to use 2 baking sheets.
• Bake for 11-14 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown and evenly spread.
• Cool on a cooling rack for 10 minutes before devouring!
• Enjoy!

FUDGE STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and creamy. Add eggs, vanilla, and salt and mix well. Add baking soda and flour and mix until combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
• Press 2/3 of the dough into a foil lined, greased 9x13" pan. Se aside.
• In a glass bowl, melt the condensed milk and chocolate in the microwave, 30 seconds at a time, stirring each time, until melted and smooth. Pour evenly over cookie dough.
• Take remaining 1/3 cookie dough, and flatten between your hands, a little at a time, and lay over the fudge layer as evenly as possible. (Because the dough is sticky, it works best to spray your clean hands with cooking spray to make the dough easier to handle).
• Bake 22-25 minutes or until golden and the edges start to slightly pull away from the sides of the pan. Cool on the counter, then chill for 2 or more hours before cutting. Store tightly covered.

FUDGE-STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Line a small, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a 1/4-ounce (1/2 tablespoon) cookie scoop, portion hot fudge into 18 balls; place on prepared baking sheet. Freeze, uncovered, until firm, at least 30 minutes, up to 12 hours.
• Meanwhile, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl.
• Beat together butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. With mixer on low, add eggs, one at a time, beating until just combined after each addition. Beat in vanilla until just combined. With mixer on low, gradually add flour mixture, beating until just combined. Gently fold in chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
• Cover cookie dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes or up to 12 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 3 large, rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Using a 1-ounce (2 tablespoon) cookie scoop, portion 1 scoop of chilled cookie dough, and place in the palm of a floured hand. Using a floured thumb, gently create a cavity in the center of the cookie dough. Place 1 frozen fudge ball in center cavity; scoop an additional cookie dough portion, and place on top of fudge ball, wrapping excess dough around fudge ball and rolling in hands to seal.
• Place on a prepared baking sheet; repeat process with remaining dough and fudge balls, placing 4 inches apart on prepared baking sheets (6 per sheet).
• Refrigerate, uncovered, until firm, at least 30 minutes, up to 12 hours.
• Bake one baking sheet at a time in the preheated oven, until golden brown, 14 to 16 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Serve warm or transfer cookies to a wire rack and let cool completely, about 30 minutes more. Repeat with remaining stuffed cookie dough balls.
