Description
A chewy gooey chocolate chip cookie in cupcake form. An old family favorite.
Ingredients
- FOR THE CUPCAKES:
- ½ cups Butter, Softened
- 6 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
- 6 Tablespoons White Sugar
- ½ teaspoons Vanilla
- 1 whole Egg
- 1 cup + 2 Tablespoons Of Flour
- ½ teaspoons Baking Soda
- ½ teaspoons Salt
- _____
- FOR THE TOPPING:
- ½ cups Brown Sugar
- 1 whole Egg
- ⅛ teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Chocolate Chips
- ½ cups Chopped Nuts
- ½ teaspoons Vanilla
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
Combine butter, 6 Tablespoons brown sugar (measuring out 1/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons makes it easier), 6 Tablespoons white sugar and 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla; beat until creamy. Beat in one egg.
Sift together and add to the creamed mixture: flour, baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Mix thoroughly.
Spoon into a 12-cup cupcake tin lined with papers. Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes, until light golden in color.
Meanwhile mix up topping (remaining ingredients)*.
* Regarding the chopped nuts selection: if you live in Michigan you probably use walnuts (I did, growing up) but now I live in Texas so I use pecans. You could use either.
Remove cupcakes from oven, lower oven temperature to 350F. Spoon 1 tablespoon topping on each cupcake, return to oven to bake for 15 minutes.
“China Check” – that’s my Lassie melamine plate that I’ve had since childhood.
