The Blogger CLUE crew is ready for the holiday season and sharing recipes worth celebrating today.

This month I was assigned to Rebekah’s blog, Making Miracles. I have worked with Rebekah on many occasions and have made multiple things from her blog already and she mine. (You can read all about my joy of searching through her blog from my Secret Recipe Club post last October: here.)

With the task of “Celebrate” at hand I looked through her beverages and sweets. Of course, as a member of #BundtBakers I knew there’d be a lot of bundts to choose from, but I wanted something different. I was tempted by her eggnog caramels, but I just don’t have the time to devote to melting sugar with a new born and highly active toddler running around.

Instead, I decided on her Chocolate Chip Cookie Souffle. My husband and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary by making both a savory and a sweet souffle.

You don’t need a special occasion for this dessert, though! This sweet treat comes together in under 30 minutes making it perfect to celebrate just getting through a Monday. If you like ooey gooey chocolate chip cookies but feel guilty eating the entire dozen then this recipe is for you. You get one large melty in the center cookie all to yourself – no guilt. 😉

This recipe makes 4 cookie souffles.

White Chocolate Chip Cookie Souffle

Ingredients:

• 1 1/3 C cake flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 stick butter, softened
• 3/4 C brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla bean paste (I used Nielsen-Massey)
• 3/4 C white chocolate chips, or any variety you prefer

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease 4 ramekins.
2. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
3. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and brown sugar until light in color. Add the vanilla and egg and mix until combined. Mix in the dry ingredients. Fold in the chocolate chips.
4. Divide the batter into the prepared ramekins. About 1/2 C per ramekin.
5. Bake 18-20 minutes. Allow to cool enough to handle and serve immediately for the best visual effect. It’ll still be tasty if you wait, but the centers will sink.
