    A slow cooker giant chocolate chip cookie, served hot with ice cream and chocolate sauce – are you drooling yet?? What’s amazing is you cook the cookie in your slow cooker so you can go and get on with your household chores while you wait for it to bake, and it won’t burn!

    Then when ready to serve just lift it out of your crockpot, add your toppings and you and your friends (you will share this right?) can dive right in.

    Read on for my recipe for a slow cooker giant chocolate chip cookie!

    Slow Cooker Giant Chocolate Chip Cookie

    Delicious warm cookie dough, filled with chocolate chunks and just begging for a spoon so you can dig in.

    Its perfect for a weekend dessert I think, or a decadent week-day treat too. Let’s face it, any day would be better with this on your plate!

    You can also let the cookie cool and cut it into slices if you prefer, though I like it best served warm with ice-cream and chocolate sauce or whipped cream and salted caramel sauce!

    About an inch or more thick, this cookie is just right for an indulgent dessert. If you spend time on Pinterest like me you will have seen the skillet/frying pan versions of these giant cookies.

    I love the slow cooker method best though as it doesn’t risk burning as much. You get nice crispy edges and the middle is so soft.

    Ingredients

    • Butter – I tend to use unsalted butter, if you have salted feel free to use it instead, just leave out the salt.
    • Light muscovado sugar / light brown sugar – if you can get light muscovado sugar where you are do use it, the flavour is better than normal light brown sugar. 
    • Caster / superfine sugar – this recipe uses a mixture of sugars, to obtain the flavour of the light brown sugar and the texture that the white sugar brings.
    • Eggs
    • Vanilla extract – to add flavour to the cookie dough. Use vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste rather than essence which is synthetic.
    • Plain / all-purpose flour – used in cookies as you don’t need it to rise as you would for a cake.
    • Baking powder – a little baking powder is used to avoid a very dense texture.
    • Salt – omit if using salted butter; salt balances out the sweetness.
    • Chocolate chips – use your preferred chocolate chips – dark, milk or even white. Alternatively use chopped chocolate.
    • Optional – raisins or sultanas

    How to make a cookie in your slow cooker

    It IS possible to make a giant cookie in a slow cooker, as you can see from these photos.

    Here’s how to make a slow cooker giant cookie:

    1. Make up your cookie dough (get the directions in the recipe card below, or you can use ready made cookie dough for a shortcut).
    2. Grease and line your slow cooker with baking paper or similar.
    3. Press the dough into the pot on the baking paper.
    4. Cook for 3 hours on low.
    5. Leave the lid half open for the last half an hour.
    6. Remove the pot from the slow cooker and allow to cool slightly.
    7. Tip the giant cookie onto a cooling rack.
    8. Try not to burn your fingers and enjoy the cookie warm with ice cream and chocolate sauce!

    Ingredients

    • 150 g butter at room temp
    • 75 g light muscovado sugar
    • 100 g caster sugar (superfine sugar)
    • 2 eggs
    • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
    • 340 g plain flour (all-purpose flour)

    UK Measurements - US Measurements

    Instructions 

    • Beat together the butter, two sugars, eggs and vanilla extract till light and fluffy.
      150 g butter, 75 g light muscovado sugar, 100 g caster sugar (superfine sugar), 2 eggs, 1 tbsp vanilla extract
    • In a different bowl stir together the flour, baking powder and salt.
      340 g plain flour (all-purpose flour), 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp salt
    • Next stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture. I kneaded it together till it all came together like biscuit dough. Sides of the bowl should clean when it is the right consistency.
    • Stir in the choc chips and sultanas (if using) and make sure they are evenly distributed.
      100 g dark choc chips, 50 g sultanas
    • Grease your slow cooker bowl with butter, and cut grease proof paper to fit the base and put it in. Grease the top of the paper too.
    • Spoon the dough into the slow cooker bowl and flatten/press into the sides.
    • Slow cook for 3 hrs on low, with lid on. You may need to switch to high for the last 30 mins.
    • For the last 30 mins leave the lid half open.
    • Take the bowl out the slow cooker and cool for half an hour.
    • Turn the cookie out on to a cooling rack, remove the grease proof paper for the bottom, and slice to serve.

    Notes

    Note: I made this in a 3.5 litre slow cooker. It is about an inch or so thick and chewy in the middle. If you want it to be thinner and less squishy, you could halve the given quantities using the same size slow cooker. Or, use a large 6.5 litre slow cooker.

      Love it but I don’t know if I needed to double the recipe for a 6.5.

        Hi Emma. It will be thinner and cooking time will most likely be shorter if you use a 6.5 litre. If you want it to be the same thickness as the one in the photos (made in a 3.5 litre oval slow cooker) then you would need to double the recipe.

      Can you line the slow cooker with a silicone liner?

        Hi Emma, you can do if there is lots of water on it! I don’t think I used one though when I made this. See how it goes for you.

      Hi, my slow cooker is 6.5 litres, is this recipe suitable for that size or should I double the ingredients? Also have you tried freezing your cookies after baking? If so do they keep ok?

        Hi, it makes a thick cookie so you can use the same ingredients for a larger slow cooker with good results anyway. I’m afraid I haven’t frozen a cookie before, they always get eaten here!
