Yield Makes one 12 1/2-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for coating pan
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for buttering pan
3/4 cup packed dark-brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg
11 ounces (2 cups) semi-sweet chocolate chips
Ganache for Heart-Shaped Chocolate Chip Cookies

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 12 1/2-inch heart-shaped cake pan. Dust the bottom and sides with flour; tap to remove any excess. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
  • In a large bowl using a wooden spoon, combine the butter, both sugars, and vanilla; beat until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the egg, and mix until combined. Add the reserved dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.

GIANT HEART-SHAPED PAN COOKIE



Giant Heart-Shaped Pan Cookie image

This recipe is perfect for those heart-shaped baking pans you always see in the Valentine section of the supermarket or discount department store. The amount of batter is roughly half of the normal bar cookie recipes. Pink, red, and white M&M's® make it sweetheart-special, but you can always use regular M&M's® or your favorite chocolate chips. Wrap the cooled cookie in plastic or return to pan for serving.

Number Of Ingredients 10

cooking spray
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup white sugar
¼ cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 egg
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour, or more as needed
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon baking soda
1 cup candy-coated milk chocolate pieces (such as M&M's®), or to taste

Steps:

  • Trace the bottom of a heart-shaped aluminum pan over parchment paper; cut along the tracing. Spray pan lightly with cooking spray and line with the heart-shaped paper.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
