These cupcakes taste very similar to fluffy chocolate chip cookies and were the signature dish of my husband's Aunt Lois when I first married into the family. His mother began making them also and they are her most-requested dish. Even when making traditional desserts for holidays, she adds these cupcakes. She even gives them as gifts.—Sue Smith, Joaquin, Texas

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 6 tablespoons sugar
  • 6 tablespoons packed brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Directions

  • In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well.

They are delicious, but I agree you should make more than the 12 it says. And be sure to bake the batter long enough to get it really baked before you add the filling. We had to pry them off the pan and out of the liners, but they were really good. I baked them quite a bit longer than it said, but could still have used a little more.

very good, however i have a few pointers,i had too much filling, will try 3/4 cup choc chips, next time, i sprayed the pan with pam then i floured the bottom, let cool completely to avoid breakage as they are delicate, place on paper towels to soak up excess butter, then on to a clean paper towel to soak up even more, i will try with white choc chips next time because i love white choc

These were great! They were SO good. Instead of using walnuts, I used chopped peanuts. They turned out just as good. And surprisingly enough- they do taste exactly like a cookie! Would definitely recommend. The yummy filling also eliminates the need to frost them; which is a positive for me!

They tasted really good & everyone loved them, the only complaint I have is they collapsed so they looked like bowls after they were cooled lol.

I got rave reviews, but I felt like the number estimated was too low, plan on making more than is given.

I made a triple batch for the guys my husband works with and they asked for the recipe. The guys give me their old jeans for quilts and I bake for them.
