Giant cookie pies

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C bake and grease four mini cocottes or a 12 cavity muffin tray 
2. Prepare the cookie mix as per pack instructions. Divide the cookie dough evenly into 4 pieces for the mini cocottes, or 12 if using a muffin tray. Roll into balls and flatten each ball into a disk and press tightly into each cavity of the cocotte or prepared muffin tin. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown. 
3. Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk the caramel condensed milk until smooth. Set aside in the fridge. 
4. Once the cookie dough has cooked for 10 minutes, remove from the oven and while hot, use the end of a rolling pin or the base of a heat-proof ramekin or cup to press down the centre of each ball to resemble cups. Return to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes, then remove from the oven again and press while hot. Repeat for another two times if using mini cocottes. Set aside to cool to room temperature.   
5. Fill each cookie pie with caramel, then spread the dark chocolate over the top. Drizzle over the white chocolate and place in the fridge for a few hours or until the chocolate is set. Serve or keep stored in an airtight container in the fridge. 

Recipe tips and FAQs: 

• What kind of toppings can I add to the cookie pies? Get creative and sprinkle your cookie pies with your favourite toppings. Sea salt flakes, chopped nuts, freeze-dried fruit or chunks of your favourite chocolate treats are all fabulous additions. 
• How do I store my cookie pies? Once set, gently remove the cookie pies from the cocottes and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Do not freeze as the filling does not freeze well with melted chocolate (the chocolate will condense when defrosted and change in appearance and taste when left out from the freezer too). 
• Can I make this vegan or dairy-free? Yes, buy vegan chocolate chip cookie mix and coconut condensed milk (without dairy), and omit white chocolate. Make sure the dark chocolate does not contain milk solids. 
• Can I make this gluten free? Yes, make sure to use gluten free chocolate chip cookie mix instead.  
• What is condensed milk caramel? It is condensed milk cooked at a low temperature until it becomes a caramel—you can buy it labelled condensed milk caramel in stores.
