Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dessert Wontons Recipe (2024)

FAQs

Can I add milk to cookie dough? ›

Dry – “Dry” or “Crumbly” dough is a product of over-mixing or using too much of any ingredient during the mixing process. This can be reversed by adding one to two tablespoons of liquid (water, milk or softened butter) to your mix.

Add Cherry Filling and Chocolate Chips

Only three ingredients are required here! In a bowl, mix together one store-bought sugar cookie log (softened), 1/3 can of cherry pie filling and 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips. Drop cookies onto a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet and pop 'em in the oven.

Some premade cookie dough can have a processed, almost chemical-like aftertaste, but you can mask it by adding extra flavor extracts to your dough. You can use a splash of vanilla extract or try other variations, like almond extract or mint extract, to change up the flavors of your cookies.

You can add chocolate chips, nuts, caramel or toffee pieces, chopped up candy bars, M&Ms, Reese's Pieces, pretzel pieces, or chopped up shrimp to cookie mix to make it tastier.

Add a few drops of extract to flavor your cookies

If you're making cookies from a boxed mix, an easy way to add your own spin to the cookies is to add a tinge of almond, rum, or citrus extract from your spice cabinet. These extracts are made by concentrating flavors in an alcohol solution.

Putting a slice of fresh white bread in the container with the cookies will help the cookies stay soft: fresh bread is moist, and that slice will give up its moisture for the greater good: keeping the cookies from drying out.

Store bought cookie dough can taste extra delicious when stuffing it with nutella, salted caramel, or s'more stuffing for deliciously gooey stuffed cookies that will taste totally homemade.

Popping your dough in the fridge allows the fats to cool. As a result, the cookies will expand more slowly, holding onto their texture. If you skip the chilling step, you're more likely to wind up with flat, sad disks instead of lovely, chewy cookies. Cookies made from chilled dough are also much more flavorful.

Cool down your dough for a tastier, chewier cookie.

As little as 30 minutes in your fridge or freezer can help your cookie brown better, spread less, and develop a richer chewy texture. There's a few reasons why, but one important part is it gives the butter in your dough a chance to firm up before baking.

Chilling the dough also improves the way your cookies taste. "In terms of flavor, you'll notice more depth of flavor from the vanilla and the sugar will taste sweeter," says Haught Brown. "In terms of texture, chilled cookie dough produces a more evenly golden-brown cookie with a crisper edge and chewier center."
