This delicious chocolate chip cookie cake recipe is made with wholesome ingredients and nourishing fats that you can feel good about serving.
This Real Food cookie cake was a primary recipe I used when my children were younger to introduce chocolate to them in very small amounts.
This way, they would know what the good stuff tastes like so they would not develop a taste or addiction to the artificially flavored, vegetable oil-laced ersatz chocolates that, sadly, now dominate the candy market.
This strategy seems to have worked. My children, who are now old enough to make their own dietary decisions, rarely eat conventional candy, preferring instead the occasional homemade treat or quality piece of chocolate from an independent confectionery that uses traditional ingredients.
This cookie cake is an easy and popular choice for parties and get-togethers. Everyone seems to enjoy it no matter how they typically eat.
Choose Your Favorite Chips!
This recipe can be easily modified to use white chocolate or carob chips. The ratio you choose depends entirely on you and what you feel is appropriate for your family.
The best part is that this cookie cake is loaded with butter so that it is highly satiating. Substitute expeller-pressed coconut oil if you have a dairy allergy in your home. (sources)
Or, use half butter and half expeller coconut oil which, in my opinion, produces the perfect level of moistness and rich flavor. I do not recommend virgin coconut oil, as it can impart a slight coconut flavor that some do not enjoy.
It is hard to overeat this cake unlike commercial versions at the mall or supermarket with additives that encourage addictive eating behaviors.
Even a small amount of these processed chocolate chip cookie cakes make many people feel sick!
