STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and toast for about 5 minutes until it turns brown and smells nutty. Pour the brown butter into a large bowl. Let sit for 30 minutes to cool before starting to make the dough.
• To the bowl with the cooled butter, add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, and yogurt. Using an electric hand mixer or stand mixer, beat for 2-3 minutes until fluffy.
• Add the egg and egg yolk and beat again until fluffy and well-combined.
• In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Sift ⅓ of the dry ingredients at a time into the wet ingredients. Beat just until incorporated, then scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula between each addition. Make sure not to overmix.
• Add the chocolate chips and mini chocolate chips to the dough and gently fold just to incorporate. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours. You can also store the stuffings in the fridge so they're easier to work with later.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Line a baking sheet (or 2) with parchment paper.
• Using an ice cream scooper, scoop out 3 tablespoons of chilled dough and flatten out into a ¼-inch (6 mm) thick circle.
• Add 1 tablespoon of your stuffing of choice, such as caramel, cookie butter, chocolate hazelnut spread, or peanut butter, to the center of the dough round, and fold the edges of the dough around the stuffing. Seal tightly and roll into a ball. Repeat with the rest of the dough and stuffings.
• To the outside of the cookie dough balls, add your choice of toppings, such as mini marshmallows, chopped candy bar, chocolate chips, crushed chocolate sandwich cookies, white chocolate chips, rainbow sprinkles, pretzel pieces, or crushed potato chips. Press the toppings firmly into the dough, so they don't fall off. Repeat with the remaining stuffed cookie dough balls.
• Place the stuffed and decorated cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet approximately 3 inches (7 cm) apart, so the cookies don't spread into one another. You may need to use 2 baking sheets.
• Bake for 11-14 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown and evenly spread.
• Cool on a cooling rack for 10 minutes before devouring!
• Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE-STUFFED TOFFEE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• For the cookie dough: Whisk together the flour, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl.
• Beat the granulated sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg until combined. Beat in the peanut butter and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Add the flour mixture and mix on low until well combined.
• For the add-ins: Stir in the toffee bits with a wooden spoon until just combined.
• For the filling: Scoop 2 level tablespoons cookie dough into the palm of your hand and flatten into a 2-inch round. Stack 3 chocolate rectangles in the center of the round, then top with 1 additional level tablespoon cookie dough. Press and mold the cookie dough so that it completely covers the chocolate. Flatten the cookie slightly so it is about 1 inch tall. Repeat with the remaining cookie dough and chocolate rectangles to make about 14 cookies total (you will have leftover chocolate pieces). Divide the cookies between the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake, rotating the baking sheets top to bottom and front to back halfway through cooking, until the tops are puffed and the undersides are lightly browned, about 14 minutes. Cool the cookies on the baking sheets set over cooling racks for 5 minutes. Lightly dust the tops of the cookies with confectioners' sugar, then serve while still warm.

CHEESECAKE-STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Beat cream cheese and powdered sugar together in a small bowl using an electric mixer on medium-high speed until thoroughly combined. Chill filling until ready to use.
• Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium speed until creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla extract, beating until blended, about 30 seconds.
• Stir 2 1/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour, baking soda, and salt together in a small bowl; gradually add to butter mixture, beating on low speed, until just blended. Beat in chocolate chips until just combined. Refrigerate dough until chilled, about 30 minutes.
• Use a medium, or 2-tablespoon, cookie scoop to place 8 scoops of the cookie dough on one of the prepared baking sheets, spaced 3 inches apart. Gently flatten each scoop to about 3 inches in diameter. Drop 2 teaspoonfuls of the cream cheese filling in the center of each cookie. Gently wrap the dough around the cream cheese and shape into a ball; press the cookies down slightly. Keep remaining dough and filling chilled.
• Bake the first batch in the preheated oven until golden and set around the edges, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Transfer cookies to wire racks; let cool completely, about 15 minutes. Repeat with remaining dough and cream cheese mixture.

OREO®-STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with aluminum foil.

• Scrape down the sides of the bowl again. Mix in 1 cup of flour and baking powder until incorporated. Fold in 1 cup of flour. Fold in remaining 1 cup flour with chocolate chips until nicely incorporated.
• To form cookies, press 1 tablespoon batter between your hands and flatten slightly. Put an Oreo® on top and add another tablespoon dough on top of the Oreo®. Shape dough softly around the cookie to sandwich it. Place on a prepared baking sheet. Repeat to form remaining cookies, spacing them 1 inch apart on the sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 15 minutes. Cool on the baking sheets briefly before removing to a wire rack to cool completely, 20 to 30 minutes.

CARAMEL-STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with racks in top and middle. In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together flour, both sugars, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add butter; beat on medium speed until combined but some pea-size butter chunks remain. Add chocolate chips and beat until combined, then beat in eggs, one at a time, and vanilla.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment. Scoop dough into 4-ounce balls (each about 1/3 cup); make a deep, wide hollow in each center. Enclose 3 pieces of caramel in each; roll back into a ball. Place 6 balls on each sheet. Freeze 15 minutes.
• Bake, with one sheet on each rack, 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees, swap sheet positions, and bake until centers are almost but not completely set (press gently on tops with your fingers to check), 7 to 10 minutes more. Remove from oven. Bang sheets on a counter a few times to create cracks in tops of cookies. Place sheets on a wire rack; let cool completely. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon. Remove 2 tablespoons of mixture to second small bowl; reserve.
• In large bowl, stir cookie mix, flour, softened butter and egg with spoon until soft dough forms. Shape dough into 20 (1 1/2-inch) balls. Flatten each ball to 2 1/2-inch circle. Press 1 chocolate into center of each cookie, making sure to form dough around chocolate to enclose; reshape into balls. Roll in remaining sugar-cinnamon mixture. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased large cookie sheets. Discard sugar-cinnamon mixture after rolling balls.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are set and light golden brown. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Sprinkle reserved 2 tablespoons sugar-cinnamon mixture on tops of warm cookies. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. Store covered in airtight container.

CHOCOLATE-STUFFED OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Prepare the cookie dough: In the bowl of a food processor, combine the butter and both sugars and process until combined. Add the egg and vanilla and pulse to combine, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
• Add the oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt, and process until combined and the oats have broken down a bit, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally.
• Transfer the dough to a large piece of plastic wrap and use the sides of the plastic to shape it into a flat, 8-inch square that is about 1/2-inch thick. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Prepare the filling: Heat the cream in a small saucepan or in a bowl in the microwave until hot. (Be careful: Cream loves to boil over.) Add the chocolate, vanilla and salt to the hot cream and let stand 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and uniform. (If not fully smooth, carefully heat a bit longer on the stovetop, stirring until smooth, or heat in the microwave in 5-second spurts, stirring after each blast, until smooth.) Transfer the filling to a large piece of plastic wrap and use the sides of the plastic to shape it into a 4- to 6-inch square. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Cut the cookie dough into 24 equal pieces. Cut the chocolate filling into 12 equal pieces. (It's OK if the chocolate breaks a bit; just make sure you have 12 equal piles.) Flatten one piece of cookie dough slightly. Set a piece of chocolate filling into the center. Flatten another piece of cookie dough and set it on top of the chocolate filling. Use your hands to shape the cookie dough around the filling and then roll it into a neat ball. Repeat with the rest of the dough and filling.
• Set 6 dough balls onto one of the prepared sheets. Bake until set and relatively flat, with just-golden edges, 14 to 16 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining cookies on the other baking sheet. Serve cookies warm or at room temperature.

CHOCOLATE-STUFFED CHRISTMAS SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• In large bowl, beat sugar, butter, shortening and egg with electric mixer on medium speed, or mix with spoon. Stir in flour, baking powder and salt. Cover and refrigerate about 1 hour or until firm.
• Heat oven to 400° F. Roll half of dough into 13x9-inch rectangle on lightly floured surface. Place mints on dough, forming 6 uniform rows of 6. Roll remaining dough into 13x9-inch rectangle on floured waxed paper. Place over mint-covered dough. Cut dough between mints with pastry wheel or knife; press edges of each "package" with fingers or fork to seal. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until light brown. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely. Decorate tops of each package with icings to form ribbon and bow.
