Deep-Dish Chocolate Chip Cookie for One. By Lauren Zembron, on July 20th, 2012 I know, I know… it seems as though I’ve been posting sweet recipe after sweet recipe (with a little something cheesy thrown in); but you see, after what seemed like a long time during which sweets were unappealing during my first trimester, (what can I say, pregnancy does some strange things to your body!) , they’re apparently back with a vengeance on my appetite’s menu. Sooooo if you’re a sweet freak like me, all I can say about my recent recipe post pattern is: you’re welcome. And if you’re not? I’m sorry. Now let’s get to this deep-dish cookie. Jenny from Picky Palate recently posted a recipe for a microwavable chocolate chip cookie made in a ramekin that looked so unbelievably delicious I had to make my own (slightly healthier) version.

Now I’m under no delusion that even my version is healthy. Kit Kat CHUNKY. Death By Oreo Cupcakes. They are probably the best Oreo cakes I have ever tried. A lot of cake's that I have experimented with before are like a vanilla cake with bits of Oreo in them, which didn't really give them enough Oreo flavor. But these were a lot better. I used a dark chocolate fudge cake mix instead of just a regular chocolate cake mix, which went really well with the cookies and gave the cakes just a little more flavor.
So, in this recipe there is Oreo's in the cake, in the frosting, and at the bottom is a Oreo surprise. That's right, you put a whole Oreo at the bottom of the cake. The cookie stays firm, which makes it a little interesting to eat against the soft cake, but it actually gave a really yummy crunch. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Also just a side note a few weeks ago I woke up and decide to make them since I had been stuck at home all week with a snow storm. So I made them on Wednesday and then Thursday our power went out and was out until Saturday night.
We were in luck and were able to eat them everyday while the power was out. It was good timing if you ask me and came in handy in our time of need. Cinnamon Rolls 3 cups milk, scalded (I microwave for 5 minutes) 1 cup potato flakes 3/4 c sugar 3/4 c butter or shortening (I use shortening - it tastes better, but is probably less healthy!) 1 Tbsp salt 4 eggs 1 1/2 Tbsp yeast 6 cups flour (I use roughly 7 to 7 1/2 cups) Place potato flakes, sugar, salt, and shortening in your mixer.
