Chocolate Chip Cookie Cupcakes image

The cupcake is reminiscent of a Toll House Cookie bar, but, you know, in cupcake form. Ooey, chewy, gooey, chocolate chippy goodness. And the buttercream ... oh my. Lots of brown sugar, a hit of vanilla, a pinch of salt to take it over the top.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 18

Cookie Cupcakes
1/2 pound 2 sticks or one cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 eggs (at room temperature)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (I prefer Ghiradelli's, plus a handful more for topping the cupcake)
Brown Sugar Buttercream
1/4 pound 1 stick or 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup shortening
1/2 cup dark brown sugar (packed)
3 cups powdered sugar
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 tablespoons half-and-half

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Add cupcake liners to 15 standard-size baking cups.
  • In a large bowl, using an electric mixer with paddle attachment or a hand mixer, cream the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar on medium-high speed for about three minutes, until pale yellow, light and fluffy.
  • Turn the mixer to low and add the eggs one at a time. Mix well.
  • Sift in the flour, baking soda and salt, then mix just until blended. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Divide the batter between the 15 cups. The batter will be very thick.
  • Pat the batter gently to create a somewhat level top.
  • Bake for 25 minutes or until golden and well-set.
  • Move to a wire rack and let cool completely.
  • Now make the frosting! In a stand mixer with the whisk attachment or using a hand blender (with whisk attachment if you have it), mix the butter and shortening on medium speed for about three minutes.
  • Add the brown sugar and mix for about another three minutes.
  • Turn the mixer to low, and slowly add the confectioner's sugar. Blend well.
  • Continue mixing on low and add the vanilla and the pinch of salt, then slowly add the half-and-half until the frosting reaches desired spreading consistency.
  • Spread or pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes, then press a few additional chocolate chips into the top.

These cupcakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I would recommend adding more milk to the batter. Otherwise, they were very good.

These were so easy to make and turned out great! I used a muffin tin lined with cupcake liners and they came out perfect. I also added some chopped walnuts to the batter for some extra crunch. Thanks for the recipe!
