Cookie Cake

Seriously! A cookie cake! Could it get any better? Actually... Yes, by adding Reese's peanut butter chips and Mini Reese's on top. :) I found this original recipe on Sally's baking addiction's blog. She gave some really great tips on how to create a cookie into a cake just by a few simple tweaks. By using only brown sugar and adding cornstarch it makes the cookie softer and fluffier. Also by using an extra egg yolk, you get a chewier cookie. This cookie cake is great for any type of party. Add some ice cream and its like a pizookie. I hope you guys love this, it's a very easy alternative to any kind of cake.
