Photo: Giant Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups bittersweet chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts
- 1/2 cup chopped toasted walnuts
- Confectioners' sugar, for garnish
- Sweetened cocoa, for garnish
- Sweetened whipped cream, accompaniment
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a 14-inch, light colored, round pizza pan with parchment paper and grease the parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars. Add the eggs, beating well after the addition of each.
In a bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt and mix with a whisk. Add to the butter mixture, mixing to incorporate, and add the vanilla extract. Fold in the dark and white chips and the nuts. Spread across the bottom of the prepared pan and bake until the edges are golden and the cookie is set but the center is still slightly soft, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
To serve, sift confectioners' sugar and sweetened cocoa over the top, and cut into wedges. Serve sweetened whipped cream on the side.

First time making this huge cookie came out amazing! I was so happy that it came out perfectly because it is for a friend's birthday! A few tips that may be helpful to others: I used a 16in pizza pan and left about 2-3" of space around the edges which the cookie filled as it baked, I used my light metal pizza pan but baked it at 350 just to be cautious since this was for someone else, put it on for 15 minutes and then 3-5 minutes a few more times until the edges were a nice brown and middle was slightly mooshy still, and I only used 2 cups milk chocolate chips and no nuts.. The edges weren't perfectly round for me so I measured and cut the edges off so that the large cookie would fit on a disposable pizza pan I can just give to my friend and it looks neater, too, after cutting it! This recipe was perfect and I will definitely be making it again for other occasions and try to get different shapes out of it! Thank you so much! Perfect recipe!
