Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. (5 minutes)
02
Step
2 mins
Gently slice each croissant in half horizontally, creating two halves. (2 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
Take approximately ¼ cup of the chilled chocolate chip cookie dough and divide it into smaller chunks. Arrange these chunks evenly over the cut surface of the bottom croissant half. (5 minutes)
04
Step
5 mins
Divide the remaining ½ cup of cookie dough into four equal portions. Flatten each portion slightly and carefully place two portions on top of the cookie dough-covered croissant halves, gently pressing them to adhere. (5 minutes)
05
Step
2 mins
Place the assembled crookies on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one. (2 minutes)
06
Step
11 mins
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookie dough on top is lightly golden brown around the edges and the croissant is heated through. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning. (10-12 minutes)
07
Step
5 mins
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the crookies cool for about 5 minutes on the baking sheet before serving. This allows the cookie dough to set slightly. (5 minutes)
For best results, use high-quality croissants that are slightly stale. This will help them maintain their shape during baking.
Chilling the cookie dough before assembling the crookies will make it easier to handle and prevent it from spreading too much during baking.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cookie dough, such as peanut butter, oatmeal raisin, or white chocolate macadamia nut.
For an extra touch of decadence, drizzle melted chocolate over the baked crookies before serving.
