👩🍳 How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookie Sushi
Step 1: Make the Dough
Cream butter and sugars until fluffy. Add milk and vanilla. Stir in the flour and salt until a smooth dough forms. Fold in mini chocolate chips.
Step 2: Roll It Out
On a sheet of parchment, roll the dough into a rectangle about ¼-inch thick.
Step 3: Add the Filling
Spread your chosen filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Step 4: Roll Like Sushi
Using the parchment to help, roll the dough tightly into a log, jelly-roll style. Chill for 10–15 minutes to firm up.
Step 5: Slice & Serve
Use a sharp knife or floss to cut the log into 1-inch pieces. Voila—cookie sushi rolls!
🍓 What to Serve with Cookie Sushi
- A bowl of fresh strawberries or raspberries for a fruity contrast
- Mini bowls of dipping sauces like chocolate ganache or whipped cream
- A side of vanilla ice cream (because yes, you can!)
💡 Tips for the Best Cookie Sushi
- Don’t skip chilling the dough—it helps hold the shape.
- Heat-treat your flour! Raw flour can carry bacteria—spread on a tray and bake at 350°F for 5 minutes, or microwave in 30-second bursts.
- Use mini chips—they roll better and give smoother slices.
- Need perfect slices? A serrated knife or dental floss is your best friend.
