Description
Indulge in the Cookie Croissant Delight, a fusion of flaky croissant layers and gooey chocolate chip cookie dough baked to perfection! This viral dessert is a must-try for lovers of both buttery pastries and chewy cookies, making for an irresistible treat.
Ingredients
- Croissants (fresh or store-bought for a buttery, flaky base)
- Chocolate chip cookie dough (homemade or pre-made for convenience)
- Egg wash (1 egg + 1 tablespoon water, for a golden, crisp exterior)
- Chocolate chips or chunks (optional, for extra gooeyness)
- Coarse sugar (optional, adds a caramelized crunch)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional, for a sweet finishing touch)
Instructions
- Preheat & Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Assemble: Slice the croissants in half to create a pocket for the filling. Stuff each croissant with chocolate chip cookie dough, pressing it in evenly. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips inside for extra indulgence.
- Seal & Flavor: Lightly press the croissant halves together to ensure the filling stays intact. Brush the tops with egg wash and sprinkle coarse sugar over the top.
- Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the croissant is golden brown and the cookie dough is gooey inside.
- Finishing Touch: Let the croissants cool for a few minutes before dusting with powdered sugar. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Make it Extra Gooey: Add extra chocolate chips inside for an ultra-rich bite.
- Pairing Idea: Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent dessert.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 days.
- Reheating: Warm in the oven at 300°F for 5 minutes to restore crispness.
