Ingredients
- For the Cookie Dough:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup white chocolate chips (optional for sweetness)
- For the Filling:
- ½ cup Biscoff cookie butter (slightly chilled)
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling:
Scoop teaspoons of chilled cookie butter onto a parchment-lined tray. Freeze for at least 30 minutes until firm—this ensures the filling stays gooey while baking. - Make the Dough:
Cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet. Fold in white chocolate chips if using. - Assemble the Cookies:
Scoop a heaping tablespoon of dough, flatten it slightly, and place a frozen cookie butter ball in the center. Wrap dough around the filling and seal completely. - Bake:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Arrange cookies on a parchment-lined sheet, spacing them apart. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden but centers are soft. - Serve:
Let cookies cool for 5 minutes before serving. For the ultimate treat, enjoy warm so the lava filling flows beautifully.
Notes
For smaller portions, make mini versions using teaspoon-sized dough scoops. They’ll bake faster but still have that molten cookie butter surprise.
