How To Make Starbucks Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cake Pops

Look! I made you copycat Starbucks chocolate chunk cookies!And they are spot on taste wise. Plus, these Starbucks cookies are super simple to make at home. Let me show you how to make these copycat Starbucks chocolate chip cookies.

To be completely honest I made them for me. And I made them in no-spend January because all I wanted last month was Starbucks cookies. Like I

-

These cookies! No, I’m not pregnant and was having cravings. I just really love these cookies and when you can’t have something you want – you want it even more, right? Right. So I wanted these cookies pretty much daily. I thought about them, I wondered if breaking my no-spend was worth it, I might have even dreamed about them.

The Best Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies

Only the best cookie in the world. Ok, maybe that’s being a bit dramatic. But if you love the chocolate chip cookies you can get from Starbies, than these are the best thing ever. They are almost a classic chocolate chip cookie but have a few extra ingredients that make them even more delicious. The chocolate chunks add a great depth of flavor to these cookies and the wheat flavor is a nice change in texture.

You don’t need a bunch of fancy ingredients to make these cookies. In fact, you probably already have everything you need at home! I made sure to pick up the extra ingredients when I went shopping next. Which really wasn’t much – some whole wheat flour and dark chocolate chunks. To make your own Starbucks chunk cookies you will need:

Butter – You will want to use unsalted butter for these cookies. Also make sure that it is softened before you get started. Leave it on the counter for 30 minutes to an hour prior to make these double chocolate chip cookies.

Vanilla extract – You know I love using my homemade vanilla extract when I’m baking. It’s nice to have a big homemade jar on hand. Store bought vanilla works just fine.

Wheat flour – This is one of the ingredients that makes these cookies so good. It adds a great texture to these soft and chewy cookies.

Chocolate chunks – These cookies wouldn’t be chocolate chunk cookies without the added chunks! I use dark chocolate because it goes well with the milk chocolate chips, but feel free to use whatever chocolate chunks you’d like.

White Chocolate Chip Cookies

With my assistant by my side, we started taste testing cookies one night. I tried different amounts of baking soda and baking powder to see if they fluffed up enough. I tried chilling the dough to see if that made a difference. I tried eating the dough straight from the bowl just to see if that helped. (It did.) Together, we came up with these easy directions on how to make the best chocolate chunk cookies.

Place your softened butter and the sugars together in a large mixing bowl. Using a hand held mixer or a stand mixer, cream the butter and the sugar together until light and fluffy. Your butter will be pale yellow when it’s readys.

In the same bowl, add in the vanilla extract and the eggs. You will want to add the eggs one at a time to make sure they are fully incorporated into the batter. Mix together until smooth.

In a separate bowl, mix together your regular flour, wheat flour, baking soda and baking powder. You can use a whisk to mix everything together. If you have a sifter in your kitchen, you can use that as well.

Add your dry ingredients to your wet ingredients and stir well. You may want to add the flour mixture in batches so that you get everything evenly mixed.

Copycat

Now for the best part! Add both of your chocolate chips to the cookie dough. Use a silicone spatula to fold in the chocolate chips. I have found that a silicone spatula works the best for folding in the chocolate chips.

Scoop 1/3 cup of the batter on your prepared baking sheet. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes. The edges will be slightly brown when they are ready.

Although these are not as thick as the Starbucks version, they do have the same consistency. They are slightly crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. And they are a spot on copycat taste wise.The wheat flour really helps with the texture and flavor of these copycat Starbucks cookies.

Yup! It sure does! I actually checked the Starbucks website for the ingredients before making these cookies. I had to figure out the amounts on my own, but using the same ingredients they use in the store really helps.

Place any leftover cookies in an airtight container, such as a Tupperware of Ziplock bag. You can leave these cookies on the counter, but I like to keep them in the fridge. Both will work and these cookies will stay fresh for 3-4 days.

Yes! You can. You can freeze the cookies after you bake them or you can freeze the dough before baking the cookies. Place the baked cookies in a Ziplock bag and remove all the air. Stick them in the freezer for up to 3 months

. If you want to freeze the dough, scoop out 1/3 cup of the batter onto the cookie sheet and place it in the freezer. Allow the dough to flash freeze for an hour and then transfer the frozen dough to a Ziplock bag to go back in the freezer. Thaw the dough in the fridge and bake as directed.

How Many Calories Are In A Starbucks Chocolate Chip Cookie?

The recipe below should make 12 large cookies. Feel free to use less dough per cookie and make smaller ones. Or make larger ones! It’s your call but using 1/3 cup of dough will give you 12.

Yup! You can! I would suggest using a silicone baking sheet or a little baking spray. There is nothing worse then a cookie that sticks to the cookie sheet!

These cookies are great on their own, but why not pair them with a great copycat Starbucks drink too? Some of my favorites are:

To recap – I spent a month trying not to spend money. That included trips to the motherlands; Target and Starbucks. To cope with said restrictions I holed up in my house in my pajamas and made a copycat version of the cookie I may or may not have dreamed about. This is that cookie. This should be made as soon as possible and drink it with a huge glass of milk or a dirty iced chai latte. That last part is your call.

Small Batch Olive Oil Chocolate Chip Cookies

These Copycat Starbucks Chocolate Chip Cookies became my to-go-to comfort food 2 years ago while we were in the process of selling the home most of our babies were born in and building a new home to create even more amazing memories.

If someone ever tells you that getting a home ready to list and sell with 5 little kids under the age of 11 is easy, well then they are crazy. It is insanely hard to keep everything clean and organized. We were lucky in the fact that our home sold very quickly, almost too quick to where our new home wasn’t ready.

My parents were very accommodating and let us move in with them. All 5 kids, Jake and I, our dog, Bruiser, a turtle, and a guinea pig.  Eventually, the guinea pig was rehomed due to the smell and size of the room the girls were in. I thought Jojo would have a hard time with it, but our guinea pig wasn’t the most loving, so it was easier for her than I thought it would be.
