Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 20 mins
Total Time: 35 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup frosting (for filling)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, add the vanilla extract and continue to mix until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the cookies are completely cooled, take one cookie and spread a generous amount of frosting on the bottom side. Top it with another cookie, bottom side down, to create a sandwich. Repeat this process with the remaining cookies and frosting.
- Serve the freshly baked double doozies immediately, or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Enjoy your delicious homemade treats!
Tips
- Use Room Temperature Ingredients: Make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature for a smoother dough and better texture in your cookies.
- Don’t Overmix: When combining your wet and dry ingredients, mix just until incorporated. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies.
- Chill the Dough: For even thicker cookies, consider chilling the dough for about 30 minutes before baking. This helps prevent spreading and enhances the flavor.
- Watch the Baking Time: Keep an eye on your cookies while they bake. They should be lightly golden on the edges but still soft in the center for that perfect chewy texture.
- Customize Your Filling: Feel free to get creative with your frosting! Try using different flavors or even adding sprinkles for a fun twist.
- Storage Tips: Store your double doozies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, but they’re so delicious, they might not last that long!
- Serving Suggestion: Serve your double doozies with a glass of cold milk for the ultimate treat experience!
