A delicious chocolatey recipe for two individual cookie dough desserts – just like the pizza hut one!

Now, I realise that this is the recipe you have been waiting for, as you know.. even by the name you all already love it. I teased my Instagram followers with a picture of these beauties last week and with many messages basically saying “WE NEED THE RECIPE” I thought I would stop teasing and let you all finally have it!

Just for two

Also, with Valentines coming up, this dessert would be PERFECT for a night in with your loved one – or a friend if you’re not doing anything fancy, or even two for yourself!

This recipe is super delicious and utterly addictive. Served well with ice cream and a drizzle of melted chocolate – utter chocolate overload, but on the most loving day of the year, you’re allowed. It serves two for a delicious amount of cookie dough each, and it is scrumptious. 

The cookie dough 

The recipe is easy, and uses classic ingredients that you will always have in the baking cupboard: 

  • Butter – a baking spread of block butter works well 
  • Sugar – a mixture of light brown and granulated is my favourite, but all of one or the other also works
  • Egg – the smallest egg you can find it best
  • Vanilla – I adore a little bit of sweetness
  • Flour – I use a mixture of plain flour and cornflour for the best texture
  • Bicarb – required for the best bake
  • Chocolate – I use a mix of all three chocolates
  • Salt – optional, but I adore salt in my cookie bakes 

Making the cookie dough 

The cookie recipe is adapted compared to a normal cookie recipe as it does only serve two; you don’t need a 16 batch cookie recipe for two dishes.

I use a bowl with a beater and beat the cookie dough, but if you have a bowl and a spatula you can probably beat it enough yourself without having to use an electric mixer. It’s not a large amount of cookie dough, so it’s quite easy to mix. 

Honestly I make these particularly gooey, but if you prefer it, you can bake it for longer. If you bake them and they cool too much, you can microwave them… either way, gooey is good I reckon.

Flavouring

I use a combination of all three chocolate types because I wanted it to be chocolatey, gooey and HEAVENLY which it was! I’ve ended up making these sooo so many times, and I cant get enough!

If you want to make a more chocolatey version you can use my triple chocolate cookie dough desserts recipe which is just as delicious and heavenly I promise. 

Serving

It’s best to use a dish that is about 12cm in size – I bought mine many years ago so can’t find them online – but any ceramic dish will work! 

I served them with some dollops of ice cream as there is nothing better to be honest, unless you want chocolate overload, or anything really, so you can use whatever… but, I love simple. 

Tips & Tricks 

If you wanted to serve more people, you can multiply the recipe up to get enough for four portions. But for date night for example, this is a showstopper. And, its guaranteed to be loved because who doesn’t love cookie dough?!

If you want easier versions, you can also find my microwave cookies here – and they’re super easy as well!

Author: Jane's Patisserie

Ingredients

  • 60 g unsalted butter
  • 50 g light brown sugar
  • 50 g granulated sugar
  • 1 small egg
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 125 g plain flour
  • 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tbsp cornflour
  • 50 g white chocolate chips
  • 50 g milk chocolate chips
  • 50 g dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 190ºC/170ºC fan.
  • Melt your unsalted butter and add in both the light brown and granulated sugars. 
  • Whisk together for two minutes until the sugar has dissolved. 
  • Add the egg and the vanilla extract and mix well again.
  • Add the plain flour, bicarbonate of soda, sea salt, cornflour, all chocolate chips and mix well until it comes together to form a lovely thick cookie dough.
  • Divide the mixture evenly into 2 creme brûlée dishes - but if you don't have any then you can use small foil trays instead!
  • Place the cookie dough in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden on top and just cooked through in the middle - the gooier the better!
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes and then serve with a giant dollop of ice cream!

Notes

  • You could swap out the chocolate for all white chocolate, all milk chocolate etc - whatever you fancy!
  • I'm not sure about the rest of the world, but in the UK at Pizza Hut you can buy cookie dough desserts - this is very similar to that! And you can make it at home yourself!
  • I use this white chocolate
  • I use this milk chocolate
  • I use this dark chocolate
  • I use this vanilla extract

ENJOY!

    hi Jane,
    Can i use an airfryer instead of the oven for this recipe? Thanks

    Love all of your recipes I have tried so far! I am planning to try making these and I wondered if I prepped them earlier in the day such as the morning am I better leaving them out at room temperature before baking or storing in the fridge until i bake. Would that make any difference to how they turn out?

    • Jane's Patisserie on August 31, 2022 at 3:08 pm

      Hiya! This should be fine – cookie dough lasts for up to 48 hours in the fridge! Hope this helps! x

    Do you have any advice on making these in individual ramekins?

    Thanks in advance.

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 15, 2022 at 2:42 pm

      Hiya! Id recommend baking for around the same time, but the amount of cookie dough may be slightly too much for two ramekins! Hope this helps! x

    Hi Jane.
    Every time I make this, it’s like soft runny cake batter not dough & then just cooks like a cake which is lovely, but I really want cookie dough.
    What am I doing wrong? I’ve been using an electric mixer, should I mix by hand instead?
    Thanks

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 28, 2021 at 3:32 pm

      Hiya, you can try mixing by hand and check your oven temperature x

    If using foil trays (like you would get your rice in from a Chinese) do you have to grease them or can you flatten the mixture straight away and pop into the oven?

  6. Amy on March 24, 2021 at 5:32 pm

    How gooey is it supposed to be?? Very gooey? I’ve cooked and unsure of cooked lol

  7. Sophie on February 12, 2021 at 12:57 pm

    Sorry me again; when you say melt your butter do you mean whisk it with the sugar or actually melt it in the microwave? Might sound really stupid but I don’t want to mess it up!

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 12, 2021 at 1:58 pm

      You melt the butter to a liquid before using!



  8. Sophie on February 9, 2021 at 9:39 pm

    Can I use caster sugar instead of granulated?

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 11, 2021 at 8:36 am

      You can but I much prefer to use granulated sugar in my cookies x
