- ½ cup (65 g) all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup (45 g) mini chocolate chips
- ¼ cup (50 g) brown sugar, packed
- 2 tbsps granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp milk or cream
Instructions
- Flour Preparation: Spread flour evenly on a baking sheet and roast at 350F (175C) for 5 minutes to eliminate potential bacteria, then allow to cool completely to room temperature.
- Mixing Base: Cream softened butter and sugars in a mixing bowl until light, fluffy, and pale, then incorporate vanilla extract thoroughly to enhance flavor profile.
- Dough Assembly: Gently fold heat-treated flour into the creamed mixture, maintaining a smooth texture, and delicately mix in chocolate chips to ensure even distribution.
- Molding Process: Line a muffin tin with paper or silicone liners, then carefully spoon the prepared dough into each cavity, pressing gently to create compact layers.
- Finishing Touches: Drizzle melted chocolate over the filled cups, creating an elegant and decadent appearance.
- Chilling and Serving: Refrigerate the cookie dough cups for at least 1 hour to set and develop a firm consistency, then remove from the muffin tin and serve chilled for optimal texture and flavor.
Notes
- Safely Handle Raw Flour: Always heat-treat flour to eliminate harmful bacteria, preventing potential foodborne illnesses and ensuring a safe eating experience.
- Master Mixing Technique: Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, creating a smooth base that guarantees a creamy, melt-in-your-mouth texture in your cookie dough cups.
- Prevent Overmixing: Fold ingredients gently and minimally to maintain a tender, soft consistency without developing tough or dense cookie dough.
- Chill for Perfect Texture: Refrigerate the cups for at least an hour to allow flavors to meld and create a firm, sliceable treat that holds its shape beautifully.
