Ingredients




cup Cookies: 2 ¼  AP flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
2 large egg yolks, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups chocolate chips (I used mini)
cup Cupcakes: ¾  (1 ½ sticks) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup light brown sugar
2 eggs
 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla

Preparation

1 For Cookies: Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt. 2 In separate bowl, mix sugars, butter, yolks and vanilla. 3 Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix until combined. 4 Add chocolate chip and mix until incorporated/distributed. 5 Using a teaspoon, scoop cookie dough into small balls. 6 Place in a zip-lock bag or airtight container that can go in the freezer. Freeze until solid. 7 Bake the left over dough in the form of mini cookies for a little cupcake accessory. 8 Preheat oven to 375 and bake for 15 minutes. 9 Let cookies cool for 2 minutes and then transfer to cooling rack to continue cooling. 10 For cupcakes: 11 Preheat oven to 350. 12 Whisk flour, baking powder and salt. 13 Beat butter until smooth and add sugar beating until light and fluffy. 14 Add eggs one at a time, beating until combined each time. 15 Mix in flour mixture, alternating with milk and vanilla, beginning and ending with flour. 16 Using an ice cream scoop, scoop batter into prepared cupcake pan. 17 Get cookie dough balls out of the fridge and place in cupcake, pushing down into center of batter. 18 Bake for 20 minutes. 19 When checking to see if done, make sure not to put your toothpick in the middle or you'll get cookie dough. 20 Transfer to cooling rack. 21 Frost with chocolate buttercream, chocolate swiss meringue or chocolate ganache.
