Cookies in stick form.
One of the best parts of these cookie sticks is that they’re ready in under a half hour from start to finish. Stir the dough together in one bowl, no need for a mixer, just press it into the pan and bake.
Because they’re baked in a pan, there’s no need to worry about spreading so you don’t have to chill the dough. The baking time is brief and before you know it, you’re eating cookies. Or sticks.
To make them, I combined my recipes for Chocolate Chip and Chunk Cookies, my go-to Blondie base recipe, along with Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups and Chocolate Chunk Cookie Bars. So many cookies and versions on a theme, but chocolate chip cookies never get old.
There’s no butter in them and instead I used canola oil. I used canola oil when I made Molasses Triple Chocolate Cookies. And baking with coconut oil has produced some of my favorite cookies ever, including Soft Batch Dark Brown Sugar Coconut Oil Cookies.
Oil keeps cakes and muffins softer and moister than butter, and it kept the sticks soft, pliable, tender, and moist. I didn’t miss the butter flavor because I was too distracted by all the chocolate, but if you prefer melted butter, go for it. There’s plenty of chocolate chunks lining the entire length of the sticks because I want chocolate in every bite. The chocolate chunks remind me of lane dividers on roads.
They’re very soft with just a bit of chewiness. I kept them on the underbaked side because I prefer smooshy and gooey to crispy and crunchy. Although the words crispy and cookies are mutually exclusive in my world, for firmer sticks, bake them for an extra couple minutes.
They’re so fast and easy to whip up and are perfect for lunch boxes, car snacks, or to toss in your purse for those you-never-know moments. I seem to have plenty of those. Since they’re the same shape as granola bars, I pretended they were healthy granola bars instead of a cookies.
Remember the children’s game Pick Up Sticks? These are the kind of sticks I want to pick up.
