    What are cookie delivery services?

    Cookie delivery services are bakeries that bring you warm cookies straight to your door. Where was this delivery service when I was a college student suffering through finals?? I would've loved a plate of these around 1:00am while writing a paper. Or while rocking a baby who didn't want to sleep.

    Making Crumbl Cookies

    This Crumbl chocolate chip cookie recipe has the soft, chewy texture and the perfect balance of sweetness and chocolate richness you know from the bakery.

    Ingredients

    • all purpose flour
    • cornstarch
    • baking powder
    • baking soda
    • salt
    • eggs
    • vanilla extract
    • unsalted butter
    • brown sugar
    • granulated sugar
    • Guittard

    This recipe contains more ingredients than my usual minimal ingredient recipes. If you are looking for a minimal ingredient cookie recipe try our 5 ingredient red velvet crinkle cookies with cake mix, or our 5 ingredient hot cocoa cookies.

    Instructions

    1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat mat. 
    2. Grab a mixing bowl and whip the butter and sugars together on medium speed for a few minutes until light and fluffy.
    3. Turn down the mixer to low and gently beat in the eggs and vanilla, one at a time. Scrape the sides of the bowl occasionally for even mixing.
    4. Stop the mixer, scrape the bowl again, and then slowly add the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt on low speed until everything is just combined. Don't overmix!
    5. Fold in the chocolate chips. Want an authentic Crumbl experience? Follow their lead and use Guittard chips.
    6. Scoop out about ¼ cup of dough (or 5.5 ounces if you're going for the precise bakery weight) and roll it into a nice ball. Place it on your prepared baking sheet, leaving space for your cookies to spread out and become glorious giants.
    7. Pop those beauties in the oven at 350°F for 15-20 minutes. Watch for that lightly golden brown perfection around the edges.
    8. Take your hot cookies out of the oven and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before moving to a cooling rack or just enjoy them warm!

    Substitutions

    This Crumbl chocolate chip cookie recipe is very easy to make substitutions to for any food allergies, intolerances or preferences.

    • Gluten free: You can try making our gluten free chocolate chip cookie that will also make delicious large bakery style cookies, or just substitute gluten free flour in place of the flour in this recipe.
    • Vegan: This recipe can easily be made vegan by using dairy free plant based butter, dairy free chocolate chips and substituting the egg with egg replacer.
    • Dairy free: To make your cookies dairy free, substitute dairy free butter and dairy free chocolate chips.

    Storing

    These cookies can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for several days or in the freezer for up to one month.

    Reheating

    There are several different ways you can reheat Crumbl cookies:

    1. Microwave Method:
      • Place a cookie or two on a microwave-safe plate.
      • Microwave for 10-15 seconds. Check after each interval to avoid overcooking.
      • Enjoy the warm and gooey cookies immediately.
    2. Oven or Toaster Oven Method:
      • Preheat your oven or toaster oven to a low temperature, around 300°F (150°C).
      • Place the cookies directly on the oven rack or a baking sheet.
      • Heat for about 5-10 minutes or until warm.
      • Remove and let them cool for a minute before indulging.
    3. Hot Beverage Hack:
      • Pair your cookies with a hot beverage like coffee or tea.
      • Warm the cookies slightly by placing them on top of your hot beverage mug for a minute or two.
      • Be cautious not to leave them too long to prevent excessive softening.
    4. Air Fryer Shortcut:
      • If you have an air fryer, place the cookies in a single layer in the basket.
      • Air fry for 1-2 minutes at a low temperature to warm them up.
    5. Wrap and Warm:
      • For a quick warm-up without appliances, wrap the cookies in a damp paper towel.
      • Microwave for about 10 seconds to add a touch of warmth.

    Equipment

    There isn't a lot of equipment you will need to make this Crumbl chocolate chip cookie recipe but you may need a mixer, cookie sheet and parchment paper. Additionally, you may also want a scale to measure your dough. If you go into a Crumbl bakery, you can see they weigh their cookies to 5.5 ounces each.

    Tips

    These tips come courtesy of a comment made from a former employee with some great tips for getting the perfect cookie:

    • Crumbl cookie sizes: Crumbl chocolate chip cookies are weighed out to approximately 5.5 ounces each cookie, or roughly ¼ cup of dough.
    • Using parchment paper seems to help the cookies not spread as much when baking.
    • To get the signature cracked look on the top of your cookies, roll your dough into more of a cylindrical shape or "roll the ball out and then break in half and stack the dough halves with the jagged side up."
    • For best results, chill the dough balls 30 minutes prior to baking.

    FAQ

    Here are some questions that you may have about making your Crumbl chocolate chip cookie recipe:

    Can I use salted butter instead of unsalted?

    While unsalted butter provides better control over the cookie's saltiness, you can use salted butter by adjusting the added salt accordingly.

    Can I substitute chocolate chips with chunks or chunks with chips?

    Certainly! Feel free to use your favorite chocolate chunks, bars, or even a mix for a diverse chocolate experience. For a true to the actual cookie experience, use Guittard chocolate chips. They are the ones that the bakery uses in their cookies.

    Can I use a cookie scoop for uniform size?

    Absolutely! A cookie scoop ensures consistent size, promoting even baking for all your cookies. However, we found that weighing the cookies is the most accurate or measuring them out with a ¼ cup measuring cup got us the closest to the actual weighed cookie the bakery uses.

    What makes Crumbl's cookies so chewy?

    The perfect combination of ingredients, including the right balance of fats, sugars, and leavening agents, contributes to the delicious chewiness of Crumbl's Chocolate Chip Cookies.

    My cookies came out flat. What can I do?

    If your cookies come out flatter than you would like, or you live in a more humid climate, you may need to add an additional 1-2 tablespoons of cornstarch to your batter. Also note that it could be the size of cookie you are making. Crumbl's cookies are approximately 5.5oz each or roughly ¼ cup.

    How long do Crumbl cookies last?

    Crumbl cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to one week, or in the freezer for up to one month.

    Crumbl cookie calories?

    Calories are not counted in these amazing cookies! However, one cookie from the bakery has approximately 720 calories. That's roughly equivalent to a Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese from McDonald's (740 calories) or a Big Mac (590 calories).

    Equipment

    • Parchment paper
    • baking sheet
    • scale optional

    Ingredients
      

    • 2 ½ cups all purpose flour
    • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
    • 1-1 ½ teaspoon salt
    • 2 large eggs cold
    • ½ tablespoon vanilla extract
    • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
    • ¾ cup brown sugar packed
    • ½ cup granulated sugar
    • 2 cups Guittard chocolate chips

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or Silpat mat. Set cookie sheet aside.
    • In a mixing bowl beat the butter and sugars on medium speed for several minutes until mixture becomes light and fluffy
    • Turn mixer to low and beat in the eggs and vanilla. Stop mixer, scrape bowl, then turn mixer to low speed and slowly add in the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, stirring until mixture is combined. Fold in the chocolate chips. (Note: for a truly authentic Crumbl cookie you must use Guittard chips like the bakkery does.)
    • Take ¼ cup of cookie dough (5.5 ounces of dough if using a scale) and form into a ball, then place on cookie sheet leaving several inches of space for cookies to spread. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes, or until cookies are lightly browned and edges are cooked.
    • Remove cookies from oven and allow them to cool for several minutes on the cookie sheet before moving to a cooling rack to finish cooling completely. But we highly suggest eating these cookies warm from the oven.

    Notes

    Store cookies in an airtight container for up to one week or in the freezer for up to one month.
    For best results, chill dough for 30 minutes prior to baking.

      These cookies came out a lot flatter than they looked in the pictures. Also they were SUPER Salty. Maybe I messed up the recipe.

        I'm not sure why. I just made these twice this weekend, and they are the base of the new Biscoff recipe I just did. You may have added too much water? I'm not sure.

      So first off, made this twice the first time and they came out good but flatter then I would have liked however I added an adition 1/2 stick of butter which may have made the dough too moist?

      Second time I changed a few things and stuck with the “regular” amount of butter and I also confirmed some things via my friend who works for Crumbl out here in Arizona

      1. Their cookies weigh approx 5.5oz, i just used parchment paper and a scale to get them weighed out. They just roll the dough into smooth balls BUT if you want more texture on the top, roll the ball out and then break in half and stack the dough halves with the jagged side up. This gives a finish similar to Levains Bakery, very craggy. I was able to make about 8 full sized cookies and an extra guy that weighed in a little over 4oz

      2. Crumbl chills their dough prior to baking which I omitted the first time around as well as it was not mentioned in your recipe. the second time I chilled the dough for about 20-30 mins and they set beautifully after cooling.

      3. They bake their cookies about 60 at a time however he said they bake at 350 for 16 minutes, then remove/cool/wire rack transfer this is where they get that signature texture on the inside (fight those carnal desires and wait!!) I wound up doing about 17 minutes and they were again perfect

      In conclusion, your recipe itself is perfect. I would only suggest chilling the dough and weighing accordingly if you are going for the exact copycat!

        That might be pretty tough to do. You could play around with the amount of butter used. 1/2 the butter and sub the peanut butter for the other half?

      This recipe is awesome! I was skeptical of how they would turn out gluten free, but with the Namaste flour blend (and everything else the same, not dairy free) they turned out heavenly. Thank you.

        I've made them gluten free too with Cup 4 Cup, Namaste and Bobs 1:1 and they have turned out great everytime. I'm so glad they turned out well for you and excited you get to enjoy bakery style cookies with food allergies!
