This recipe uses...

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 egg
  • 10 tablespoons salted butter (1 stick + 2 tablespoons)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Sweet Potato Spreggies
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Bake Mode is Off

Directions

  1. Preheat the Oven:

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a non-stick baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.

  2. Prepare the Butter Mixture:

    Ensure the butter is at room temperature or microwave it in 10-second intervals until softened but not melted. Transfer to a large bowl and add the sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer to whip the mixture until creamy.


  3. Mix the Dry Ingredients:

    In a separate bowl, combine the flour, Sweet Potato Spreggies, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix until evenly distributed.


  4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until fully incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips gently with a spatula.


  5. Portion the Dough:

    Using a 2-ounce ice cream scoop (or approximately 1/4 cup), portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave several inches between each cookie, as they will spread while baking.


  6. Bake the Cookies:

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. The cookies are ready when the edges are golden and crispy, and the centers remain slightly fluffy.

  7. Cool and Set:

    Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. The centers will continue to set as the cookies cool and will naturally shrink slightly to their final form.


  8. Serve and Enjoy:

    Serve warm for a gooey, melty treat, or store in an airtight container to enjoy later.
