Chocolate Chip Cookie Cakelets

Chocolate Chip Cookie Cakelets

These cute cookie cakelets make adorable individual treats to celebrate with others. They’re party perfect, baked in tiny 5-inch pie pans.

Cookie Dough

Mix up some yummy chocolate chip cookie dough and add pastel confetti sprinkles along with milk chocolate or semi sweet chocolate morsels.

Tiny Pie Pans

I used these 5-inch metal pie pans that I found at Home Goods and snatched up as soon as I saw them because they were so cute. They’re probably long gone by now, but here are some I found online that are similar. You can also find aluminum pans in this size online.

Cookie Dough Mounds

When baking, just scoop even mounds of cookie dough in each pan, but don’t press it into the bottom. Let the dough bake to fill the pan shape.

Piping Chocolate Frosting

When cool, pipe a thick border of chocolate frosting around each cookie and add a few more confetti sprinkles.
