Description
A delightful combination of flaky croissant layers and chewy cookie dough filled with melty chocolate pockets, perfect for a cozy treat or a crowd-pleasing dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 croissants (store-bought or leftover bakery croissants)
- 1 cup chocolate chip cookie dough (store-bought tube or homemade)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (semisweet or milk chocolate)
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 egg (optional, for egg wash)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Slice the croissants in half lengthwise.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate chip cookie dough with chocolate chips. If your cookie dough is very stiff, let it sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes to soften slightly for easier spreading.
- Spread the cookie dough mixture generously on the bottom half of each croissant.
- Place the top halves back on.
- Brush the tops with melted butter and, if desired, egg wash for a golden finish.
- Arrange the crookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 10–15 minutes or until golden and the cookie dough is baked through.
- Allow to cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy your Crookies!
Notes
These Crookies are an indulgent treat—best enjoyed occasionally. For lighter variations, consider using vegan ingredients or reducing cookie dough per croissant.
