Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake

SAVE FOR LATER

Do you ever get a hankerin’ for freshly-baked chocolate chip cookies but don’t feel like making the dough, rolling it into individual cookies, etc.?

If so, fear not, because I have the perfect recipe for you! This chocolate chip cookie cake is essentially one giant chocolate chip cookie that you can cut into slices.

It’s much quicker to make than individual cookies, + just as delicious. If anything, it might be more delicious, as it keeps a slightly softer, more ooey-gooey texture than individual cookies.

While I’m certainly not going to call this diet food, the whole wheat flour definitely adds a healthy note. I happily treated myself to a small slice after dinner for a bunch of nights in the row, guiltlessly getting my chocolate/sweets fix.

A decadent-tasting, chocolatey dessert that you can still feel good about eating? Win!
