Easiest chocolate chip cookie cake! This simple cookie cake is made in just 30 minutes and doesn’t require a mixer or chilling to make. Top with your favorite frostings or ice cream for the total cookie cake experience!
Do you remember the cookie stands in the mall? As a kid, I was always in awe of the giant chocolate chip cookie cakes that they sold there.
This chocolate chip cookie cake recipe is the easy way to make one of those cakes at home! This recipe makes an easy, single layer cookie cake in about 30 minutes.
The cake makes a quick weeknight dessert, but it can also be dressed up with ice cream or sprinkles for a fun birthday cake.
How to make chocolate chip cookie chip
In a large bowl, whisk melted butter and sugars together until well-combined. Whisk in egg and vanilla until well-combined.
Add flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir in just until combined.
Stir in chocolate chips.
Pour cookie dough into prepared pan and spread until even. Bake for 15-25 minutes. The edges should be set and golden brown.
Cut into wedges to serve.
Tips
Tips- Butter: I use salted butter. You can use unsalted butter if you prefer.
- Brown sugar: I use light brown sugar, but you can also use dark brown sugar in this cookie cake.
- Chocolate chips: Feel free to use milk, bittersweet, or even white chocolate chips.
- Springform pan: If you don’t have a springform pan, you can use a 9-inch round cake pan. Simply run a knife around the edge and invert to remove the cookie cake from the pan.
- To serve: Feel free to frost the cookie cake (I like to use this chocolate buttercream), add sprinkles, top with ice cream or whipped cream, or serve with any other toppings that you like.
