My latest love/weakness - Chubby Hubby Cookies. Hands up who likes Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby ice cream...?
Thought so!!!
Same here!!! The combination of malt, peanut butter & salty pretzels, absolute HEAVEN. So I decided to try and make cookies/biscuits with the same flavour profile - I know, sounds a bit technical - "flavour profile" - but basically I wanted them to taste like the ice cream but in cookie form...
Success!!! Chubby Hubby Cookies!!! Gorgeous bites of nutty, malty, pretzel and chocolate heaven!
Now let's talk about the muffin tin aspect.
Cooking them in a muffin tin means the cookies/biscuits come out SUPER soft, dense & chewy, with no hard edges. If you only like your cookies with crisp, crunchy edges then these little babies definitely aren't for you!
