Ingredients
  

Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake

  • ¾ cup butter room temperature
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2 Tablespoons Valentine’s sprinkles

Vanilla Buttercream

  • 3/4 cup butter room temperature
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1-2 Tablespoons milk or cream

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Line a 10-inch cake pan or springform pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Cream butter, both sugars, and vanilla until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg and yolk, mixing well after each addition. 
  • Slowly add flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt and mix until combined. Add chocolate chips and sprinkles.
  • Press dough into the pan and even out as much as possible. 
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until edges just begin to turn golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and set on a wire rack. Cool in pan until completely cool. When cool, use a sharp knife to loosen the sides of the pan. Turn out onto a plate or serving dish. 
  • To make the frosting, beat the butter in an electric mixer until pale in color, about 3 minutes. Add half of the powdered sugar and beat until completely incorporated. Add the remaining powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt. Add 1 tablespoon cream and beat until light and fluffy, another two minutes. If it is too stiff, add an additional tablespoon of cream.
  • Add to a piping bag fitted with a star tip and pipe around the edges of the cookie. Decorate with Valentine's sprinkles.
