Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper, and grease the pan and paper.

Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, stir together the cooled butter, brown sugar, and sugar. Add the egg and vanilla, and stir to combine.

Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, stirring just until combined or a few small streaks of flour remain. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Spread the dough evenly in the prepared pan. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until the cookie is golden brown.

Place the pan on a wire rack, and allow the cookie to cool completely before removing from the pan.

Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter until creamy. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder, 1/2 tablespoon cream, vanilla, and salt, and mix until thoroughly combined and fluffy. If necessary, add the remaining cream a small amount at a time until the frosting is the desired consistency.

Transfer the frosting to a piping bag fitted with your preferred piping tip. Pipe the frosting onto the cooled cake, and garnish with sprinkles.
