If you’ve ever been to a certain cookie company in the mall, you have probably heard of the Double Doozie. Two of their preposterously priced cookies sandwiched around creamy, white frosting…this treat even more ridiculously priced than the cookies alone.
Since I don’t have one of these cookie joints near me and if I did, you wouldn’t find me strolling in the mall alone with 4 kids, I’ve taken it upon myself to help you make your own fabulously delicious Double Doozies, only better because they have chocolate in the middle.
This conversation occurred the day I made these when I showed my husband this plate of treats.
“Well, those look healthy.” he commented (sarcastically).
To which I replied, “It’s dessert. You are going to eat 3 or 4 of these cookies anyway, so why not take two cookies and put frosting in the middle?”
“How do you know I’m going to eat that many?”
“I just do.”
Later he enjoyed a Double Doozie, labeling it ‘EXTREME.’
I don’t know about you, but I prefer my chocolate on the extreme side.
We’ll start by making my favorite chocolate chip cookies.
Brown Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookies
2 ¼ cups Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
¾ teaspoon Salt
¾ cup (1 ½ sticks) Butter, room temperature
1 ¼ cup Brown Sugar
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 Egg
1 cup Chocolate Chips
Preheat oven to 350°.
In a small bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
Cream together butter and brown sugar, until light in color (about 2 minutes). Add vanilla and egg. Mix well.
Gradually add flour mixture at low speed. Stop when no streaks of flour remain. Stir in chocolate chips.
I used a cookie scoop to measure out 1 Tablespoon balls of dough. Place them on a cookie sheet (it’s super helpful if it’s lined with parchment paper, but not required!) and flatten them slightly with your fingers.
Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until just golden on the edges. You don’t want to over bake these. Remove from oven, allow to cool on pan for a few minutes and then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chocolate Buttercream Frosting
6 Tablespoons Butter, softened
2 2/3 cups Powdered Sugar
½ cup Cocoa Powder
1/3 cup Milk
1 ½ teaspoons Vanilla
Beat butter until smooth. Sift powdered sugar and cocoa together into bowl (don’t even think of skipping this step – no one wants clumps of cocoa powder in their frosting!)
Add milk and vanilla, beat until smooth and creamy.
Pipe or spread onto cooled cookies, add another cookie on top to make it a Double Doozie. This makes about 18 cookie sandwiches, unless you like eating cookie dough as much as I do…then you might have a few less.

I am with you on the extreme desserts! Two cookies with frosting…definitely better than two plain ones:-) I am loving this ramped up cookie!!!
I totally agree – you might as well eat 2 of them with frosting in the center! These look so good!
These look sinful!!! BUT delicious 😉
These look so good. How can you go wrong with chocolate??? 🙂

YUM! What a blast from the past! I used to love getting double doozies from The Great American Cookie Company when I was in high school! These look delish!
I was just about to call you out on stealing this post from Buns in my Oven and then I went back to her post, and it was YOU guest posting! LOL. I knew it looked/sounded familiar! I made this recipe a few months ago and then were delicious. And now I want to make them again. My growing butt thanks you. 🙂
Again, these sound so good. They look sinful! Yum. Thanks for sharing on Crazy Sweet Tuesday! 🙂
I do love a Double Doozie! Haven’t had one in years. But, I love the idea of chocolate ones and making them at home. I’ll definitely give these a try. Thanks for sharing on Sweet Indulgences Sunday.
These look scrumptious for sure! I have featured them on this week’s Makin’ You Crave Monday. Come by & grab a featured button if you want – and I would love it if you linked up another recipe this week. This week’s blog party is live now 🙂
Looks delish.
We’d love you to share your recipes with us at
Simply Delish Saturday
I like your logic with your husband. Why not put frosting between them? Lol!
Thanks for stopping by Sweet Tooth Friday!
Saw your link on Sweet Indulgences–this looks sooooo good! I used to love the Double Doozie as a kid, but I haven’t been that cookie store in the mall in so long I’d all but forgotten about them. I’m not sure I should thank you for reminding me! 🙂
My goodness, my family would go nuts for these!!! Found you via Fusion Fridays…and a new follower 🙂
These look delicious! I’ve never heard of a Double Doozie, but I definitely want to give these a try!! Great idea to flatten them out before baking! 🙂
