Servings: 7
Ingredients
- ½ cup Crisco 96g
- ½ cup Granulated Sugar 100g
- ¼ cup Molasses 60ml
- 1 Egg Large
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 cup All Purpose Flour 240g
- 1 ½ cup Chocolate Chips 255g
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 350°F. While the oven is heating up, grab a mixing bowl and combine the Crisco, Granulated Sugar, and Molasses.
- Mix these wet ingredients until they're well blended, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl to incorporate everything.
- Next, add in the Egg and Vanilla Extract, and mix again until everything is smooth and fully combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine your Dry Ingredients: All Purpose Flour, Baking Soda, Salt, and Cornstarch. Slowly add these dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring as you go to make sure everything is evenly incorporated.
- Once the dough is formed, it’s time to add in the Chocolate Chips. Gently fold them into the dough so that every bite of your cookie will have some of that chocolatey goodness.
- For this copycat recipe, you’ll need to use 6-inch baking tins, which are the perfect size to create mini versions of the iconic Subway footlong cookie. Using a cookie scoop, place about 4 scoops of dough into each tin. Lightly press the dough down to spread it out evenly in the tin.
- Place the tins on a baking sheet and pop them into the oven. Bake for 9-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is just set.
- Once baked, let the cookies cool completely in their tins before you remove them. This helps them keep their shape and ensures that they’re the perfect texture. If you’re feeling fancy, you can add a few extra chocolate chips on top for decoration while the cookies are still warm. Then, simply pop the lid on the tin, and your cookies are ready to go!
Notes
This recipe makes approximately 7 cookies in the 6-inch tin. Subway Footlong cookies are typically 12 inches long, but this copycat cookie recipe is for 6-inch cookies.
Storage & Make Ahead
- Store: Keep your cookies fresh by storing them in an airtight container at room temperature. They’ll stay delicious for up to 5 days, but they’re at their best within the first few days.
- Freeze: If you want to save some cookies for later, wrap each one in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy them, let them thaw at room temperature or give them a quick zap in the microwave.
- Make Ahead: These cookies are great for making ahead of time, especially if you have a busy schedule. You can prepare the dough, shape it into the tins, and freeze the unbaked cookies. When you’re ready to bake, just add a couple of extra minutes to the baking time, and you’ll have freshly baked cookies without the fuss.
