MARRY ME COOKIES
These ‘Marry Me Cookies’ are irresistibly soft, chewy, and filled with gooey chocolate chips and creamy white chocolate. They're sweet, rich, and so good—one bite might just spark a proposal!
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg + 1 egg yolk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips
- ¾ cup white chocolate chips
- ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts optional
Instructions
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Make the Dough:
- In a large bowl, combine melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until smooth. Add the egg, extra yolk, and vanilla extract. Stir in dry ingredients until just combined.
Add Mix-ins:
- Fold in chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and nuts if using.
Shape the Cookies:
- Scoop dough into 1½-inch balls and place on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
Bake:
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden and centers are set but still soft. Let cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Notes
Make Ahead:
Dough can be chilled for up to 48 hours or frozen for up to 1 month. Bake from chilled for thicker cookies. Customizing the Flavor:
Add a pinch of cinnamon for a warm twist or swap white chocolate for butterscotch chips. Serving Suggestions:
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a glass of cold milk. Allergy-Friendly Options:
Use dairy-free butter and chocolate chips for a vegan version; skip nuts for nut-free. Storage Tips:
Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
