Ingredients
- 1 cup cold butter
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar, tightly packed
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 ¼ cups flour, gluten free 1 to 1 or all purpose
- 1 tsp baking soda
- pinch sea salt, optional
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 18 chocolates, such as Dove
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add cold butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Beat for 2 to 3 minutes or until no clumps of butter remain.
- Then, add in both eggs and vanilla. Stir to combine.
- Add in flour, baking soda and sea salt. Stir until a thick dough is formed.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Use a large spoon to scoop out balls of dough. Flatten each ball of dough. Place on lined pan.
- Place an unwrapped chocolate in the middle of each flatten ball.
- Then, place a smaller flattened ball of dough on top of the chocolate. Use hands to wrap cookie dough around each chocolate, until fully enclosed.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until edges are very slightly golden and the middles are barely set.
- Finally, remove cookies from oven. Allow cookies to cool for 10 minutes on pan before carefully transferring to a cooling rack.
Notes
- Use cold butter straight from the fridge.
- If using unsalted butter, add a pinch of sea salt if desired.
- Beat butter and sugars until no clumps of butter remain.
- Both all purpose flour and gluten free 1 to 1 flour work well.
- Cookie dough will be thick.
- Any type of chocolates work: Dove chocolates, Hershey kisses, even peanut butter cups.
- Be sure cookie dough fully encloses the chocolate.
- Bake until cookies look barely set in the middle. They are meant to be gooey!
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
- These cookies freeze well.
