The Best Chocolate Chip Parfait Cookies

Have you ever heard of chocolate chip parfait cookies? I’m always on the lookout for a new recipe to make chocolate chip cookies. When I think of a cookie, the first one that I think about is chocolate chip cookies. The second one would be my pumpkin cookies. Have you ever been to Jacob Lake in Arizona? Well, they have the most spectacular camping area and the best cookies made in the world. You can tell by the parking lot and all the people sitting outside eating cookies on the benches and rock formations. It’s a halfway mark from southern Utah to Flagstaff, Arizona. They also have a gift shop and a restaurant. There are always lines of people waiting to buy their cookies. Who would guess we would pay for cookies when we can make them at home? These cookies are different.

MY LATEST VIDEOS

First of all the cookies are huge and a bit pricey, but we all buy them because we need to stop for a potty break, stretch our legs and get a snack after driving for two hours on a two-lane road with speed limits of 65 miles an hour or less. They have cookies of all kinds to please any palate. They have a cookie called “Chocolate Parfait” that is our family’s favorite. I have been working on a recipe to duplicate that cookie for months. It’s here!!

Ingredients

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. I used my Kitchen Aid stand mixer to make these yummy cookies! You can use Silpat sheets or grease your cookie sheets. Cream the butter, sugar, egg, salt, and vanilla together. Add the flour until thoroughly mixed together. Gradually add the chocolate chips. I use my 1/8 cup or 2 tablespoons cookie scoop. Bake for 9-10 minutes and let them cool before removing them from the cookie sheets. This recipe makes approximately 3 dozen cookies.
