Description

Crookie – The Best of Both Worlds is a delightful fusion dessert that combines the flaky, buttery layers of puff pastry with the rich, indulgent flavor of cookie dough. This easy-to-make treat features bite-sized pockets of cookie dough wrapped in crispy puff pastry, baked to golden perfection and topped optionally with sugar and mini chocolate chips for an extra touch of sweetness. Perfect for sharing or satisfying a sweet craving, crookies offer a unique and delicious twist on classic pastries and cookies.

Ingredients

Scale

Pastry and Dough

  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 8 tablespoons cookie dough (homemade or store-bought)

Toppings

  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional, for topping)
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Roll Out Puff Pastry: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet into a rectangle about ⅛ inch thick, creating an even base for the cookie dough pockets.
  3. Place Cookie Dough: Spoon small mounds of cookie dough (about 1 tablespoon each) evenly across one half of the puff pastry, spacing them a few inches apart to allow room for expansion during baking.
  4. Fold and Seal: Fold the other half of the puff pastry over the cookie dough mounds, gently pressing down around each mound to seal the edges and encase the dough.
  5. Cut Individual Crookies: Using a knife or pastry cutter, cut around each mound to form individual crookies. Crimp the edges with a fork for a tight seal to prevent leakage while baking.
  6. Prepare for Baking: Place the crookies on the prepared baking sheet with space between each piece. Brush the tops evenly with the beaten egg to help them brown beautifully.
  7. Add Toppings: If desired, sprinkle the tops with granulated sugar and mini chocolate chips to add extra sweetness and visual appeal.
  8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the crookies are puffed up and golden brown, ensuring a crisp and flaky exterior.
  9. Cool and Serve: Allow the crookies to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving to let the cookie dough finish setting and to enjoy them at the perfect temperature.

Notes

  • You can use any cookie dough flavor you like—chocolate chip, sugar, or peanut butter—to customize your crookies.
  • Chill the cookie dough before assembling to help it hold its shape during baking and prevent spreading.
  • For a crispier finish, bake the crookies until they reach a deep golden brown color, but watch carefully to avoid burning.
