Inside Out Chocolate Chip Cookies


Sallysbakingaddiction.com you've done it again - another great cookie recipe with the cutest name ever.  How in the world do you come up with the idea to create an inside out chocolate chip cookie?  Pure genius - you are.

I may never be creative enough to be able to develop fabulous cookie recipes like this one on my own but I will continue to bake Sally's recipes and give all the credit back to her.  Kudos Sally - my hat is off to you.

Inside Out Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature*
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) dark brown sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons (79g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 Tablespoons (30ml) milk
  • 1 and 1/4 cups (225g) white chocolate chips, plus a few more to sprinkle on top
Using a handheld or stand mixer, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed for about 20 seconds.

 
Beat in the egg and vanilla. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

 






In a separate medium size bowl, toss the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together.






Slowly add to the wet ingredients with the mixer running on low. The dough will be very thick.








By hand, stir in the milk.




Fold in the white chocolate chips. The dough will be thick and very sticky. Chill for at least 2 hours and up to 36 hours, covered. Chilling is *mandatory.*


Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
Take 2 Tablespoons of chilled dough and roll into a ball. Place on cookie sheet and press a few more white chocolate chips on the tops, if desired.

 
Bake for 12 minutes. Cookies will appear undone and very soft. Press down (gently) if cookies are too puffy. Allow to cool on the cookie sheet for at least 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.


I am not a huge white chocolate fan, in fact, I typically avoid baking with it altogether if at all possible.  For some reason, the white chocolate in these cookies I found to be quite delightful though.   There isn't too much of the white chocolate and it really adds a nice compliment to the dark chocolate cookie.

I hope that you will try these cookies and if you looking for other fabulous cookie recipes, check out one of my favorite blogs, sallysbakingaddiction.com. 

Ciao!
