how to make Delicious Crumbl Blue Monster Cookie Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted sweet cream butter (softened)
- 1â…“ cup light brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups flour
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1 cup chocolate chip cookies (crushed)
- 1 cup unsalted sweet cream butter (softened)
- 2½ cups powdered sugar
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 4 tbsp heavy whipping cream
- sky blue gel food color
- 18 mini chocolate chip cookies
- 1 cup cookies (crushed)
Directions:
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and preparing your baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
- In a stand mixer, combine the brown sugar, softened butter, eggs, and vanilla. Mix until you achieve a smooth, fluffy consistency.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Gradually incorporate this mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing until a cohesive dough forms.
- Gently fold the mini chocolate chips and crushed cookies into the dough.
- Using a medium ice cream scoop, portion out the dough and roll each portion into a ball. For consistency, aim for each ball to weigh about 2.5 oz.
- Place the dough balls on your prepared baking sheets and bake for 13-16 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet.
- For the frosting, use your stand mixer to beat together the butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and heavy whipping cream until smooth and able to hold its shape.
- Incorporate a few drops of sky blue gel food coloring into the frosting, mixing until you achieve your desired shade of blue.
- Transfer the frosting to piping bags for easy application. Decorate the cookies by starting at the center of each cooled cookie and pipe a thick ring of frosting to the edge. Sprinkle crushed cookies over the frosting, and finish by placing a mini cookie in the center.
