Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake
Description
This cookie cake begins by combining melted butter with brown and granulated sugars, then whisking in egg and vanilla before stirring in all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. The dough incorporates semi-sweet chocolate chips for bursts of chocolate throughout.
The batter is spread evenly in a greased springform pan and baked at 375°F until the edges are golden and set while the center remains soft, typically 15-25 minutes. After cooling in the pan, the sides are loosened and removed to reveal a large cookie cake that’s easy to slice.
This recipe allows flexibility in ingredients; salted or unsalted butter, light or dark brown sugar, and various types of chocolate chips can be used depending on preference. If unavailable, a standard 9-inch cake pan and careful removal after baking can substitute for the springform pan.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg large
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions

- Whisk in egg and vanilla into the butter mixture until well-combined.
- Add flour, baking soda, and salt to the wet ingredients.
- Stir in just until combined.
- Stir in chocolate chips.
- Pour the chocolate chip cookie dough into prepared pan and spread until even.
- Bake for 15-25 minutes. The edges should be set and golden brown.
