Step-by-Step Instructions
- Mix the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a bowl until it is a fluffy mixture.
- Beat the eggs into the mixture one at a time until blended.
- Add the vanilla to the mixture and beat until blended.
- Dissolve the baking soda in hot water.
- Mix the dissolved baking soda and salt into the bowl with the other ingredients.
- Stir in three cups of flour.
- Mix in the chocolate chips with a wooden spoon until equally spread throughout the cookie dough.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Turn a muffin tin (or cupcake pan) upside down and lay on a flat surface.
- Rub oil or spray Pam on the bottom of the tin to keep the cookie bowls from sticking.
- Roll a ball of dough (about the size of a golf ball) in your hands and pat it until flat.
- Place the rolled and padded dough onto the back of one of the cupcake holders on the tin (as shown in the photo to the right).
- Add more dough to the back as needed to make a cookie bowl.
- Continue making the bowls until all of the cupcake holders are covered.
- Place the muffin tin (cupcake tray) into the oven (upside down) and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until they are cooked (approximately 25 minutes).
- Take the tray out of the oven.
- If your cookie bowls have expanded and touch the others, use a knife to shape them until they are round like a bowl.
- Fill the inside of the bowls with your favorite filling and serve!

Be Creative!
Be creative with your toppings or fillings! These bowls can be used to hold candies like M&Ms or Hersey's kisses. If you choose to fill them with candies, you can also wrap them with cellophane and tie the top with a ribbon to give away as gifts.
If you want to put ice cream in the middle of the bowl, add sprinkles, whipped cream, and a cherry on top to give it that extra punch. You can also add slices of banana around the outside of the bowl to make it like a banana split!
