Cookie Dough Topped Chocolate Chip Cookies
Remember the aforementioned chocolate chip cookies? They are even better with cookie dough! Either buy or make more cookie dough than you need for the actual number of cookies you plan to bake. Prepare that batch, put them in the oven, and wait. While the cookies bake, portion out a bit of dough for each cookie. After the batch of cookies cools, top each cookie with a good helping of cookie dough, drizzle some chocolate syrup on top, and enjoy a great cookie dough creation that is a treat everyone will love!
Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies
