Products Used

Light Brown Sugar Poly Bag

Extra Fine Granulated Pure Cane Sugar Bag

Ingredients

Chocolate Chip Cookie

12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 cup packed Dixie Crystals Light Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
1 large egg
1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 1/8 cup all-purpose flour*
2 teaspoons corn starch
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Decoration

1 cup Vanilla Marshmallow Frosting
1/2 cup Chocolate Marshmallow Frosting

*Spoon & Sweep method: Use a spoon to fill measuring cup with flour until required amount is obtained. Scooping measuring cup directly into flour bag will firmly pack flour resulting in too much flour required for recipe.

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Spray a 14-inch, deep dish, aluminum pizza pan, or cake pan with non-stick baking spray.
Wipe out any excess spray leaving just a thin layer of the spray in the pan.

Press cookie dough into prepared pan.
Top with remaining 1/4 cup of chocolate chips.
Bake for 24-28 minutes until golden brown.
Remove pan from oven and set on a cooling rack.
Run a thin knife around edge of cookie, releasing it from edge of pan.
Allow cookie to cool completely in pan.
While cookie cools, prepare chocolate and vanilla marshmallow frosting.
Once cooled, lift up on parchment paper strips, releasing cookie from pan.
Slide cookie off parchment paper onto a serving platter or 14-inch cardboard cake round.
Spoon vanilla frosting into a pastry bag fitted with a large open star tip.
Spoon chocolate frosting into a pastry bag fitted with a large open star tip.
