Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1½ cups all-purpose flour (180 grams)
1 cup granulated sugar (200 grams)
1 teaspoon baking powder (4 grams)
½ cup vegetable oil (100 grams)
½ cup milk (114 grams)
2 large eggs (100 grams)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (4 grams)
1 cup mini chocolate chips (177 grams, divided)
½ cup unsalted butter (113 grams, room temperature (1 stick))
2 cups powdered sugar (226 grams)
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract (12 grams)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 12-count cupcake tin with paper liners (or spray with nonstick spray). Set aside.
  • Combine the flour, sugar, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, milk, eggs, and vanilla.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir using a rubber spatula until well mixed (a few clumps are okay).
  • Add in ½ cup of the mini chocolate chip and stir until just combined.
  • Fill each cupcake tin ⅔ full with batter-- I use a ¼ cup cookie scoop to ensure they're all the same size.
  • Bake until the tops become a light brown color and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 14-16 minutes.
  • Transfer the cupcakes to a wire rack and let them cool to room temperature.
  • Once completely cooled, scoop out the center of each cupcake with a small ice cream scoop or paring knife and fill with mini chocolate chips-- about ½ teaspoon per cupcake.
  • Add the scooped out piece of cake back on top of the chocolate chips.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
  • Add in the powdered sugar a little at a time until fully incorporated.
  • Once all of the powdered sugar has been incorporated, add in the vanilla and mix until combined.
  • Pipe or spread the icing onto the cupcakes and enjoy.

CHUNKY MONKEY CUPCAKES



Chunky Monkey Cupcakes image

Banana, walnut, and chocolate are always an amazing combination of ingredients, no matter what the delivery system, but it really doesn't get any better than in this ganache-frosted cupcake. A close second would be a chocolate-dipped frozen banana, rolled in walnuts, which is also a great treat, although much more awkward to eat in public. Feel free to omit the frosting and just enjoy these as muffins.

CHOCOLATE CHIP WALNUT COOKIES



Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookies image

There is a special little bakery in New York City called Levain Bakery that makes seriously decadent and massively huge cookies, which are the inspiration for these giant treats. These oversized cookies are chewy on the inside and crispy on the outside with chunks of chocolate and slightly sweet walnuts studded throughout. The key to making them so chewy is using only dark brown sugar and skipping the granulated stuff altogether. The molasses in brown sugar gives the cookies the most ideal chewiness and just the right amount of sweetness.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h20m

Yield 16 to 18 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 1/2 sticks (1 1/4 cups) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 3/4 cups packed dark brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
One 12-ounce bag semisweet chocolate chunks or chips
2 cups walnut halves, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Sift the flour, kosher salt, baking powder and baking soda together into a large bowl.
  • Beat the butter and brown sugar in another large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes. (Use the paddle attachment for a stand mixer.) Beat in the eggs one at a time, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low. Add the dry ingredients and beat until combined. Fold in the chocolate chunks and walnuts by hand.
  • Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
  • Use a 2-ounce ice cream scoop to scoop half the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart (you should have about 8 cookies, roughly 3 1/2-ounces each, per baking sheet). Sprinkle the flaky sea salt on top of the dough balls.
  • Bake, rotating the pans from top to bottom and front to back halfway through, until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the middle, 18 to 20 minutes. Let them cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Store the cookies in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
