Cookie Dough Cupcake

September 26, 2015 By Dane McGregor Leave a Comment

If you’re a sucker for anything sweet then you need to give this cupcake a whirl. This cupcake really takes me back to when I was younger, waiting for my mum to bake some cookies so I could sneak some of the dough without her noticing. Who would have thought that later in life you could simply buy frozen cookie dough right from your supermarket freezers to eat, or bake if you’re that way inclined.

However this recipe is for a cookie flavoured cupcake, topped with a deliciously naughty chuck of homemade edible cookie dough. Overload!

  4. For the cupcakes, sift together all the dry ingredients (except the chocolate chips) in to a free-stand mixer.
  5. Add the eggs and butter and beat for 1 minute.
  6. Lower the speed and add the milk, vanilla and chocolate chips before turning mixer back up for 1 more minute, not forgetting to scrape down the sides during.
  7. Fill paper cases about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake between 16-20 minutes or until cake springs back when touched.

  11. Sift icing sugar and add to the butter in two stages, beating for another 3 minutes between additions.
  12. On a slow speed add the milk then turn mixer speed back up for another 5 minutes.
  13. Once the cupcakes are cool pipe a big blob of buttercream on the top.
  14. Finally take the cookie dough out from the freeze and chop it up into chucks (big/small, you decide) and plonk a piece of the cookie dough right into the top of the buttercream. Sweetness overload!

This just in, I made all of these ones myself. Also, If you saw on the telly, @griffinsbiscuits featured on an episode of TVNZ 2’s Snack Masters, where the iconic ToffeePops took centre stage for the food gurus to recreate this kiwi classic. 

Griffins challenged me to try making them from the comfort of my own home too, consider it ‘Snack Masters at Home - Dane Edition’. Obviously I accepted the challenge to recreate their ToffeePops here at home and I’m pretty impressed with how they turned out.

Now if you have a craving for ToffeePops, it’s also good to know their perfectly proportioned bikkies are still kiwi made and smothered in 5 roll refined and Rainforest alliance certified chocolate. Now that’s worth all that toffee goodness!

How much do you love ToffeePops?
