GOOEY MARSHMALLOW-FILLED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Gooey Marshmallow-Filled Chocolate Chip Cookies image

A perfectly designed chocolate chip cookie to me means a gooey center and lightly crisp edges. This cookie takes the "gooey center" part literally by having a vegan marshmallow tucked inside the center of each one. Since vegan marshmallows aren't made with gelatin, they stay fluffy throughout baking.

Time 45m

Yield 18 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/4 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (about 12 ounces)
18 vegan marshmallows

Steps:

  • Position the racks in the upper and lower third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment. (If you only have one baking sheet, let it cool completely between batches.)
  • Place the butter in a small microwave-safe bowl, cover and microwave on medium power until melted, 1 to 2 minutes. (Alternatively melt in a small saucepan.) Cool slightly.
  • Whisk the dark brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, melted butter and vanilla in a large bowl until smooth.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients with a wooden spoon, taking care not to overmix. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Use an ice cream scoop or measuring spoon to scoop out portions of dough (each about 3 tablespoons or 2.2 ounces). Flatten each portion in the palm of your hand until it's about 1/4-inch thick. Place 1 marshmallow in the center of the flattened dough and form the dough around the marshmallow until it is completely covered. Roll into a uniform ball and place about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until the edges and top are just turning golden, but the center is still soft, 17 to 18 minutes.
  • Let the cookies cool slightly on the baking sheets, about 5 minutes. Serve warm.

CHOCOLATE GOOEY BUTTER COOKIES - PAULA DEEN



Chocolate Gooey Butter Cookies - Paula Deen image

This recipe was on Paula's Food TV show. They are to die for! I made these because my partner will not eat anything with cream cheese in it. I thought I would actually have cookies to eat the next day. I was so wrong. I made a double batch and only had 3 cookies in all. I did not find these to be Gooey. More delicate and cake like. Be sure not to over bake. *Prep time includes 2 hour chilling time. *NOTE - On her show she did add oil...I don't know the amt. I added no oil the 4 times I have made these and I don't feel its needed...My hips agree :) UPDATE: I have also used FF Cream Cheese with good results. Any flavor cake mix works well! Please also note that the directions do state that dough will be very stiff. I use my stand mixer with no problems. Please use caution if using a hand mixer.

GOOEY CHOCOLATE CRACKLE COOKIES



Gooey Chocolate Crackle Cookies image

This is the absolute favorite cookie in my house. I've been using this exact recipe for the past 6-8 years which originally came from a high school cafeteria cookbook. It was tough trying to get this recipe, then after I got it, it was for 350 servings ! It's now scaled down to 4 dozen, but they don't last long...maybe 350 cookies IS the way to go ! ETA: Reviewers have added an extra cup of flour to the mix with success. I still make them as originally posted.

THICK-AND-GOOEY CHOCOLATE-CHIP COOKIES



Thick-and-Gooey Chocolate-Chip Cookies image

These hefty and extremely satisfying treats should be devoured with a cool glass of milk on hand. In the search for the perfect iteration of chocolate-chip cookies, three subsets of cookie rose to the top (check out the crisp and chewy versions to compare). Each recipe was tested more than a half-dozen times, so please grant us some generosity. Note that this version uses baking powder and the balls of dough are considerably larger.
