Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake
Rating
This cookie cake is a showstopper.
Ingredients
- 3 16.5-oz. logs chocolate chip cookie dough
- 2 c. butter, room temperature
- 6 c. powdered sugar
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- ¼ c. milk
- Pinch kosher salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Line 3 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Divide each log of cookie dough into 2 balls. On each baking sheet, place two cookie dough balls and flatten them into big discs.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden and cooked through. (Now is not the time for an under-baked gooey center!) Let cool for about 15 minutes on baking sheet then transfer on a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, make frosting: In a large bowl, combine butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt. Beat until light and fluffy. Gradually add milk until you reach your desired consistency.
- Assemble cake: On a cake stand, or large serving dish, apply a very thin layer of frosting then place the first cookie layer on top. Apply a thin layer of frosting on top of the cookie and top with another cookie layer. Repeat with remaining cookies and frosting.
