Do y'all want to know what an unexpected
0:01
chocolate chip cookie is? It's one that
0:04
we're going to cook in the Crock-Pot.
0:06
We're not going to heat up the oven.
0:08
We're not going to make lots of little
0:09
cookies. We're going to make one giant
0:11
cookie. It's going to be a thick, kind
0:13
of chewy center with crispy edges. We
0:17
got one large mixing bowl, a few tips
0:19
and tricks for you guys to make this
0:21
cookie, woo, the best. Meet me over
0:25
In the large mixing bowl, the first step
0:28
is we're going to cream together butter
0:30
with the sugars and get that nice and
0:32
smooth. I've got one stick. Now, this is
0:35
salted butter. If you're doing salted
0:37
butter, you don't need to add salt to it
0:39
when we do the dry ingredients. But, if
0:41
you're doing unsalted butter, we will be
0:43
adding a pinch of salt later. But, I am
0:46
using the salted butter today. We're
0:48
going to put that into a large mixing
0:50
bowl. You want to make sure your butter
0:52
is nice and soft, okay? So, that it'll
0:55
cream well with the sugars. Now, I just
0:57
popped mine in the microwave for about
0:58
10 seconds and melted just a little bit,
1:01
but that's totally fine. What you don't
1:03
want to do is melt it totally.
1:08
So, that's half a cup.
1:11
All right, we're going to take the
1:14
and we're going to beat this together
1:17
until it's nice and smooth and creamy.
1:20
And it'll be light in color, also. It
1:22
will just take a few minutes.
1:28
That's what you're looking for.
1:31
Looks nice and fluffy in there.
1:35
Now, what you want to do is crack in one
1:39
and 1 tsp of vanilla. Now, I brought my
1:42
egg room temperature. I just pulled it
1:46
while I was getting everything else
1:55
And then, of course, we're going to this
1:57
again with the electric hand mixer.
2:08
What we're going to do is sift in 1 and
2:11
1/2 cups of all-purpose flour.
2:15
Just going to use my sifter here.
2:19
I got a half a cup. I'm just going to
2:22
place it in to my sifter.
2:25
And give it a good whack.
2:27
Now, about halfway through,
2:30
I'm going to add in the salt and baking
2:35
I'm going to let that sit right there.
2:38
Now, if you are using unsalted butter,
2:41
you would want to add in about an eighth
2:42
of a teaspoon of salt, which I'm not
2:45
going to do since I used the salted
2:48
But, we are going to add in 1 tsp of
2:55
And then, I'm going to put the other
2:56
half a cup on there of the all-purpose
3:00
We're going to WHACK IT IN.
3:09
ALL RIGHT, WE'RE GOING TO FINISH GETTING
3:13
WE'RE going to get a spatula. We're
3:15
going to kind of get the the mixture
3:17
into the flour a little bit.
3:20
Then, we'll get the electric hand mixer
3:21
out again and get that combined.
3:31
A nice dough in there.
3:38
Don't overmix. Got everything good?
3:49
All right, now we're going to get our
3:53
We're going to fold in 1 and 1/2 cups of
3:57
your chocolate chips, whatever you like.
4:00
I'm doing the dark chocolate chips.
4:12
I'm using a half measuring cup here.
4:14
It's what I had out using anyway, so
4:18
that's what I was using right here.
4:23
Just use your spatula and fold them in
4:30
I like these chips. They're kind of
4:37
Give it a nice melting consistency.
4:41
>> All right, let's go all the way down to
4:47
All right, y'all see that?
4:49
That's what we're looking for.
4:53
One big cookie dough. Let me show you
4:56
how we're going to put that in the
5:05
A piece of parchment paper.
5:11
Now, what you want to do is put this
5:13
into the bottom of your Crock-Pot and
5:14
have it come up the sides just a little
5:16
bit because that way it'll be easier to
5:18
pull your cookie out. So, I'm going to
5:21
show you the size. It is
5:27
by about 12 12 in 1 ft.
5:32
So, we're going to place this in there
5:33
and we're going to make sure that we get
5:34
the edges nice and sealed with the
5:36
parchment. I'll show you. Come on up.
5:41
And then what you want to do is flatten
5:45
Just use your spatula and push.
5:50
You can use your hands for this also if
5:53
And then just smooth it out.
5:58
That's what you want it to look like.
6:02
I've made plenty of desserts in the
6:04
Crock-Pot and to keep the moisture that
6:07
accumulates on your lid from in going
6:08
back into your Crock-Pot, put some paper
6:11
towels right across the top
6:16
that moisture from going down into your
6:17
cookie and making it a soupy mess, okay?
6:24
We're going to cook this on low for 3 to
6:29
And then I'm going to show you what
6:30
we're going to do. You want that cookie
6:34
it's going to be a chewy cookie, but you
6:35
want it cooked through. And the edges
6:37
you want nice and crispy. So, we're
6:44
Eat this cookie. There it is. Look at
6:48
that. Now, the cookie's going to have a
6:50
nice chewy center and crispy, crunchy
6:54
edges right here, which it looks like.
6:56
Look at that. I did pull this out of the
6:58
Crock-Pot and I let it rest on a wire
7:01
rack to kind of cool up underneath the
7:03
cookie. So, it's been here for a little
7:09
Now, I'm going to cut this into
7:11
triangles and then I'm going to give
7:16
And put some ice cream with it.
7:21
Make desserts while you're keeping your
7:30
All right, that's my piece right there.
7:33
We got a cookie. We got the ice cream.
7:36
And we got chocolate syrup, of course.
7:43
Now, that is a dessert.
7:48
I think we're missing a fork.
7:54
Here's the Cookie Monster.
7:56
All right, let us know what you think of
7:58
the unexpected Crock-Pot chocolate chip
8:10
>> It's our first time making a cookie in
8:13
the Crock-Pot. Now, I've made other
8:15
desserts in the Crock-Pot.
8:16
>> That's really good.
8:24
>> Everything it's supposed to be.
8:37
>> Got a really good flavor.
8:46
Now, my Crock-Pot tends to run a little
8:48
hot sometimes on one side of it.
8:51
So, what I did was halfway through was I
8:53
picked up that parchment paper and just
8:55
shifted the cookie to the other side so
8:58
that it cooked hotter on the other side,
8:59
too. But, just check it every so often.
9:02
Make sure looks beautiful like that
9:10
>> Thumbs up, you guys.
9:12
Hope you enjoyed our dessert day today
9:15
and the Crock-Pot day today.
9:18
We'll see y'all on the next episode.
