Chocolate Chip Cookies on a Stick

Cookies+on+a+stick

E.B. has been reading this blog for a very long time. About a week ago, she tweeted me asking advice about cookie pops for an upcoming birthday party. I had never made them, but had always wanted to – for no particular reason except that they’re cookies. On a stick.

And so we made some! For research purposes, obviously. I poked around the internet to see what other people were doing, and not being quite up for a full-on icing art project, I decided to just make chocolate chip cookies, stick wooden Popsicle sticks into the dough before they baked, and see what happened. Guess what? Cookies on a stick! Easy. It appears you can bake any cookie on a stick. Drop or other soft-doughed cookies, anyway – I’m not sure how you’d jam a stick into a rolled and cut-out cookie, unless you made the dough thicker than you normally would. To make perfectly round cookies for decorating, I’d roll sugar dough into balls, poke in the stick, then flatten them with the bottom of a glass. But to be honest, I’m not sure I’d bother with anything but crispy-edged, chewy-middled chocolate chip cookies on my sticks.

Tonight, Ben called from across the street to ask if I might have twenty-seven leftover cookie pops for him to bring to his class for his birthday tomorrow. Er, no. Guess what we did tonight?

Rather than go with my lower fat version, I went with the recipe on the back of the Chipits bag, tweaking it just a bit. I may have eaten some of the dough.

Good luck with the birthday party, E.B.!

Chocolate Chip Cookies on a Stick

AuthorJulie

Yields1 Serving

3/4 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup canola or mild olive oil
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
2 1/4 cups flour (half all-purpose, half whole wheat)
1 tsp. baking soda
pinch salt
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 dozen wooden Popsicle or stir sticks

1

Preheat oven to 350F.

2

In a large bowl, beat the butter, oil and sugars until well blended and starting to get fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat again. Add the flour, baking soda and salt and beat until almost combined; add the chocolate chips and stir just until blended.

3

Shape the dough into walnut-sized balls and place them on an ungreased baking sheet, allowing 2 inches between them. Stick a Popsicle stick into each, ensuring that the stick won't interfere with the spreading of any of the other cookies.

4

Bake for 12-14 minutes, until golden around the edges but still soft in the middle. Let cool on the sheet for at least 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Ingredients

 3/4 cup butter, softened

    This is why I love the web, and most specifically Twitter. I’ve never seen this particular piece of genius in any cooking magazine, and yet, thanks to your tweet, I am about to become a cookie on a stick fanatic.

    These look fantastic and so much fun. My mind is already spinning from the variations possible (snickerdoodles, sugar cookies, etc…). Thank you for sharing!

    Ha ha… I just baked off the last of my frozen chocolate chip cookie dough (recipe off of the Chipits bag!) that I’ve been baking off in small increments so that we’re not eating 30 cookies at once. Now I guess I’ll have to start all over again seeing as I have a whole box of popsicle sticks and a toddler addicted to the idea of both cookies and lollipops.

    In a similar vein, I used to bake sugar cookies with a Christmas tree hook embedded, usually dusted with colored sugar, suitable for hanging on the tree.

    What a coincidence, I made choc chip cookie squares, (too lazy to drop them out as cookies) for my DH. We both agreed that the dough tasted pretty good too! Plus. they make great breakfast treats….oops….

    How did the cookies on a stick hold up? Did any of the sticks fall out? Would you only use the wooden sticks or do you think the lollypop sticks would work as well?

    As you can see I’m a bit afraid that the cookie may fall off the stick (especially if small children wave the sticks around in the air) thus losing all the cookie goodness to my dog hair covered floor. I’m not sure if I can trust my cookies on a stick!

    The sticks – both popsicle sticks and wooden stir sticks (like the ones you get at Starbucks) held up incredibly well – none of the cookies fell off, and because they’re baked right on do not appear to be in danger of coming off! You have to eat the cookie right off the stick – it doesn’t pull out! I’m not sure the small white paper lollipop sticks would be as structurally sound.

    I feel a little like the lone voice in the wilderness, but i would just make the cookies. For me, the stick just gets in the way of the cookies. But, that just leaves more sticks for the rest of you.

    I guess you have to keep the sticks so you can tally up just how many you have eaten?

    I just made these for my kids kindergarten class. I had to keep making them smaller because they spread too much. I ended up using less then a teaspoon of dough for each cookie. The first one fell apart because I was too excited to try it, but once they cooled the sticks were sturdy.
    Thanks for a great idea that keeps hands clean(ish)!

    I made these cookies and wrapped each one individually in a cello bag, tied a blue ribbon around each one and presented them at a baby shower.
