Levain Bakery-Style Dunkaroo Cookies
These Bakery-Style Dunkaroo Cookies are 6 oz of pure, soft and chewy perfection and are stuffed to the brim with 90s nostalgia via Dunkaroos cookies and icing! So delicious!
Servings: 8 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup (16 Tbsp) COLD unsalted butter, cubed
- 1½ cups granulated white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1½ cups cake flour
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (roughly) Dunkaroos cookies (approx. 8 packages - save the frosting!)
- 1¾ cups white chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles (such as rainbow jimmies)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 410° degrees F.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the cold, cubed butter and the granulated sugar with the paddle attachment on low speed for 30 seconds. Increase the speed to medium and continue beating for another 30 seconds. Lastly, increase the speed to medium high and continue beating for a final 30 seconds, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract. Add in the cornstarch, baking soda, salt, cake flour, and AP flour and mix on low speed until just combined. Lastly, add in the Dunkaroos cookies, white chocolate chips and sprinkles and mix on low speed until just barely combined.
- Refrigerate dough for approximately 30 minutes.
- Using a digital cooking scale, measure out 6 oz of dough in a tall, loosely packed ball of dough. Place 4 dough balls approximately 3" apart on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet in a staggered pattern. Place no more than 4 balls of dough on a sheet - this is to prevent spreading since they're large cookies.
- Bake one sheet of cookies at a time in the center rack of the oven for approximately 11-13 minutes or until the cookies appear set, have a dull and dry exterior and are slightly underdone in the centers. Remember, they'll continue to set up more as they cool. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for at least 30 minutes before moving them to wire racks.
- While cookies are warm, but not hot, take remaining Dunkaroos frosting and frost the tops of the cookies. Garnish with additional sprinkles, if you'd like.
Notes
I used 8 packages of Dunkaroos cookies. From those 8 packages, you'll get almost a full cup's worth of cookies. This is perfect! And remember to save the frosting as you'll use it to frost the baked cookies!
