frosting

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt icing

Greek yogurt icing reduces sugar while adding creaminess.

Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a nine-inch cake round by spraying or buttering it.

Sift 1 3/4 cups of all-purpose flour, 3/4 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt into a large bowl and mix.

In a separate bowl, cream together 1/2 cup of room temperature unsalted butter, 3/4 cup of packed light brown sugar, and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar until smooth.

Add 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until well combined.

Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low until almost combined.

Fold in 1 1/2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips by hand until evenly distributed.

Press the cookie dough mixture into the prepared cake pan to form a flat layer.

Sprinkle additional chocolate chips on top before baking.

Bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until puffed and golden.

While the cake cools, prepare the chocolate frosting by creaming together 6 tablespoons of room temperature butter.

Sift together 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder, then add to the creamed butter.

Mix in 2 tablespoons of milk and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Pipe the chocolate frosting onto the cooled cookie cake using a piping bag and tip.

Finish with a sprinkle of confetti sprinkles on top.
