Best Cookie Stuffed Rainbow Chip Cupcakes Recipes

CREAMY RAINBOW CHIP COOKIE CUPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In large bowl, stir cookie mix, softened butter and egg until soft dough forms. Shape dough into 36 (1 1/4-inch) balls (about 1 tablespoon each); place in ungreased mini muffin cups.
• Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Immediately press end of wooden spoon handle into bottoms and against sides of cups to make large enough indentations for filling cups. Cool completely in pan, about 30 minutes. Remove from pan to serving plate.
• Spoon frosting into resealable food-storage plastic bag. Cut 3/8 inch off corner of bag. For each cup, gently insert cut corner of bag into indentation in cup; squeeze bag to fill indentation with frosting, about 2 teaspoons. Decorate with candies.

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Place paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups.
• Make cake batter as directed on box. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups (about two-thirds full). Bake 20 to 22 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Using melon baller or small spoon, scoop out center of each cupcake, about 1 inch deep. Fill each with 1 heaping teaspoonful candy sprinkles.

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE DOUGH + CUPCAKE = THE BEST CUPCAKE. EVER.

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and sea salt; set aside. Beat the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Add 1 egg and the vanilla extract and beat until smooth. Mix in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Form the dough into tablespoon-sized balls; place onto a baking sheet, and freeze until solid, about 2 hours.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.
• Beat 3 eggs in a large bowl with an electric mixer to break up. Add the cake mix, water, and canola oil; continue beating for 2 minutes on medium speed. Spoon into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each 2/3 full. Place a frozen cookie dough ball on the top center of each cupcake.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the cake portion of the cupcake (not the cookie dough ball) comes clean, about 20 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
