Ingredients
For the Cupcakes:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup evaporated milk
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, sifted
- 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 15 Chips Ahoy original cookies, chopped
For the Frosting:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup light brown sugar, packed
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 Tablespoons evaporated milk
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
- 12 mini Chips Ahoy cookies (for garnish), broken in half
Instructions
- For the cupcakes, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Beat butter with sugar until smooth and fluffy (about 3 minutes). Add in eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition until fully combined. Beat in vanilla extract.
- In small bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda together (very important). Add flour mixture, alternating with evaporated milk, in about 3 additions.
- Do not overbeat. Fold in chopped cookies. Fill cupcake liners about ¾ full and bake 20-25 minutes. Allow to cool 15 minutes in pan, remove and cool completely on wire rack.
- For the frosting, beat butter, brown sugar and salt for about 3 minutes until fully combined. Beat in powdered sugar, vanilla and milk. Continue to beat for about 3-5 minutes until fluffy. Add chocolate chips. Pipe onto cooled cupcakes and garnish with half of a mini chips ahoy cookie. Enjoy!
