Cookie Dough Fries


Cookie dough fries!

I had these a few years ago from the Baltic Market from The Yog Bar so wanted to recreate them. You can see what I mean by looking at the post here.

Ingredients:



175g Unsalted Butter - Soft
150g Sugar
2 Large Eggs
400g Plain Flour
1 Tsp Baking Powder
¼ Tsp Salt
100g Chocolate (Optional)

Dips (Optional) - Melted

Biscoff/Biscuit Spread
Nutella
Peanut Butter
White Chocolate
Milk Chocolate

Utensils:


Mixing Bowl
Electric Whisk
Wooden Spoon
Measuring Spoons
Sieve
Rolling Pin
Non stick sheet - Floured work surface
Clingfilm
Sharp Knife
Chopping Board
Baking Paper
Flat Baking Trays
Wire Rack

Oven 180°C
160°C fan

Baking Time - 12-15 minutes


Method:


Cream the butter and sugar together using the electric whisk until it's pale and creamy



Add the eggs and beat until incorporated


Sift in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Beat using the electric whisk until a dough is formed. I struggled to using the whisk so just used a wooden spoon instead



If you're adding chocolate you can add it now.
I used dark chocolate chips as we had some lying around that needed using up


This is actually the perfect cookie dough - it tasted really good and is a better mixture that the other cookies I've previously made!

Roll out into rectangles onto your non stick paper/floured work surface and wrap with cling film then wrap in cling film and chill for 1 hour in the fridge


I should have rolled them out into rectangles as then I wouldn't have any round edges and all pieces would be straight looking fries/chips!

Once chilled you can cut them into stripes/fries and place onto your baking sheet leaving a bit of space between them as they will puff and spread when baking.



Bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges begin to turn light golden.



 Leave on the tray for a few minutes then transfer onto a wire rack to cool completely.

I think they're more like shortbread rather than cookies but I got good reviews for them when I shared them out! I melted some of the Aldi biscuit spread in a bowl by placing it into the oven while it was still warm as a dip for my fries!
