Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Springform pan
  • Electric Mixer
  • Piping Bags

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup Unsalted Butter Softened (1 + 1/2 sticks)
  • 3/4 cup Light Brown Sugar 150 grams
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar 50 grams
  • 1 large Egg
  • 2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups Unbleached All-Purpose Flour 240 grams
  • 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 3/4 cup Bittersweet or Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 3 cups Powdered Sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract For frosting
  • 3 tablespoons Milk For frosting
  • Holiday Sprinkles For decorating

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a springform pan with parchment paper.
  • Cream together the softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
  • Add the egg and vanilla extract; mix until fully incorporated.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips gently with a spatula.
  • Press the cookie dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan.
  • Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, until soft in the center. Switch to broil for 1 minute to brown the top slightly, but watch carefully!
  • Allow the cookie cake to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
  • For the frosting, beat the softened butter until creamy, then gradually add powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until fluffy.
  • Divide frosting into bowls and add gel food coloring for decoration. Use piping bags to create a wreath design on the cooled cookie cake.
  • Finish with holiday sprinkles for a festive touch!
