These were OK but not as good as I expected them to be. Like another reviewer said it kind of just tasted like there was chocolate chips in the middle. Next time I will use 1/2 cup mini chips and put 1 1/2 teaspoon fulls of cookie dough in the middle. I also baked the left over cookie dough balls into mini cookies and put them on top of the cupcakes.

A fun and unique cupcake idea! I used a white cake mix and frosted them with creamy chocolate frosting (from this website). Yum!

This was good. Although I have to disagree, and say that we preferred the "second best cupcake" which has brownie batter in it. I found that it was hard to tell when the cake was done. However, it WAS good and it is definitely worth trying. I used Chocolate Marshmallow frosting from this site, which I think helped to make this cupcake. Given the choice again, I think I will make the brownie recipe over this one.

I made these for a birthday party and they were a huge hit! The only thing I did differently was use butterscotch chips instead of chocolate chips. I baked for 16 minutes and they turned out perfectly. The cookie part was wonderfully gooey! I used the Buttercream II frosting recipe from this website. Sort of time consuming for cupcakes,but worth it for special occasions.

When I saw this recipe I had to try it for a work function. But I was short on time so I decided to take the easy way out. Normally, I'm completely against using pre made mixes but I literally had a few short hours in an evening to finish these. I used Pilsbury cookie dough. Rolled the dough into balls and froze for a couple hours. Then prepared one chocolate and one vanilla cake mix. Finished with vanilla icing, a mini cookie and large chocolate chip on top. It worked out perfectly! Next time I would definitely use my own home made cupcake recipe and favourite cookie dough but if you're short on time the pre made mixes tasted great! I would recommend using a slightly less sweet icing. Peanut butter or dark chocolate would be great!

These came out very good but very rich, though that might be because I used a chocolate cake mix instead of vanilla. Freezing the dough overnight and using mini-chocolate chips made the dough work well in the cupcake, though I think I'd like more cupcake and less cookie dough next time. I might try playing around with the size of the dough and the cooking times. We'll see how that works.

These cupcakes sound seriously sweet. I love cookie dough and I love cupcakes, so this recipe sounds like the perfect combination for an indulgent treat. Can't wait to give them a go.

Very good. I used less chocolate chips and made teaspoon sized balls. Bigger next time, I think would be better. I also added 8 oz cream cheese to the chocolate icing and whipped it. Very good recipe!!
