Ingredients – What you need for the Copycat Crumbl Cookie Dough Cookies

Cookies

Flour

When it comes to dry ingredients this is one of the staples you will find in most cookie recipes. Flour provides the base and structure for the cookie dough. We like to use all-purpose flour and you will need 1 1/2 cups. When measuring the flour use a spoon and sift it before adding it to your cookie mixture.

Baking Soda

Baking soda is such an important element to add to the flour mixture. It helps with the rising and the overall shape of the cookie. You only need 1/2 a tsp for this recipe.

Butter

For this recipe, you need 1/2 cup of butter that is softened at room temperature. Unsalted butter is best for this recipe so you can control the flavor.

Salt

Because you are using unsalted butter this is where you can control the flavor. You will only need 1/4 teaspoon.

Brown Sugar

Brown sugar will help to give that chewy texture we know and love when it comes to cookies. You only need 2/3 cup of it and it will produce incredible chewy cookies.

Egg

One large egg is the perfect addition to get the dough’s texture just right. The egg yolk also helps with that chewy texture and golden color of the cookies.

Vanilla extract

You can’t go wrong with the vanilla flavor when it comes to these delicious cookies. You will need 1/2 tsp of vanilla for this cookie recipe.

Edible cookie dough

Heavy cream

The heavy cream adds a level of creaminess to the cookie dough and also helps to combine so that you can use a cookie scoop to create the perfect amount. You will need 2 teaspoons of heavy cream. A little goes a long way.

Mini Chocolate chips

What is edible cookie dough without chocolate chips? For this part of the recipe, you will need 1 tablespoon of them.

The other ingredients you will need for this part of the recipe are:

How to make the Copycat Crumbl Cookie Dough Cookies

First of all, let’s start by making the cookie dough balls. You will want to cream the butter and brown sugar together. For the best results use a fork. Then add the vanilla extract and the cream and make sure everything is combined thoroughly.

Now add the flour and mix it all together until you can see a visible dough forming. Then you can stir in your chocolate chips. Roll into half-inch balls or use a cookie scoop or spoon to help. Add them to a container lined with parchment paper and store them in the refrigerator until you are ready to use.

Next up it is time to make the brown sugar cookie. First of all pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. Get a medium bowl and combine the flour, baking soda, and salt together and set it aside.

Now it is time for the wet ingredients. In a separate mixing bowl, you can beat the butter and brown sugar together until a light mixture occurs. You could use an electric mixer for this at a medium speed to help speed up the process. Then beat in the egg and the vanilla.

Add the flour mixture and mix together until everything has fully combined and a dough has formed. Now roll the cookie dough into large walnut-sized balls. You could use a cookie scoop for this. Then flatten into large cookies that are about 1/2 inch thick.

Place these cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in the center of your preheated oven for around 10 minutes. Or until the edges have started to set.

Remove these cookies from the oven and add them to a cooling rack and let them cool. While these cookies are cooling you can make your icing. Simply beat all of the icing ingredients together until you have a smooth cream.

When the baked cookies have cooled, you can top each one of them with a tablespoon of icing, and a cookie dough ball, and then sprinkle them with chocolate chips. The perfect cookie combination. Delicious!

Flavoring the icing with something a little different will give these cookies an edge. Maybe try almond or lemon extract for a different flavor.
