Description
A recipe for the viral hybrid dessert combining flaky croissant dough with gooey chocolate chip cookie dough.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet store-bought puff pastry, thawed
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1½ cups chocolate chips
- 1 large egg, for egg wash
- 1 tablespoon water or milk, for egg wash
- Optional: extra chocolate chips or flaky sea salt for topping
Instructions
- Prepare the cookie dough: Cream softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract. Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Chill cookie dough: Divide dough into 12-16 portions, roll into balls, and flatten into discs. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or freeze for 15 minutes until firm.
- Preheat oven and prep pastry: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 6-8 triangles.
- Assemble croissants: Place one chilled cookie dough disc at the wide end of each puff pastry triangle. Roll up each triangle towards the pointed end, enclosing the dough. Curve ends inwards to form a crescent shape.
- Egg wash and bake: Whisk the remaining egg with water or milk. Brush tops and sides of cookie croissants with egg wash. Sprinkle with extra chocolate chips or flaky sea salt if desired.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown and puffed, and the cookie dough is molten.
- Cool and serve: Let cookie croissants cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm.
Notes
- For best results, serve warm.
- You can adjust the size of the cookie dough portions based on your preference for filling.
