In the end, these are a little more time-consuming and require a few more ingredients than your average cookie. But for the perfect dessert, these are worth the time and effort with their crunchy thin tops and chewy centers filled with pockets of melted chocolate chips. Your friends will actually be jealous that you made such a fantastic dessert!
The Crumbl is a cookie that has been around since at least 1950, when it was found in The Jewish Home Economists’ Cook Book. It is a variation on the Butter Drop Do cookies with a crumbly, shortbread-like texture.
What is the ingredient for making a ruby chocolate chip crumbl?
Ingredients:
Butter- You can use either unsalted or salted butter but make sure your butter is at room temperature before using.
Sugar- You can use either regular granulated sugar or brown sugar. Brown sugar will result in a more cake-like crumbl, and granulated sugar will make the golden crispy crumbl.
Egg- To make ruby chocolate chip crumbl, you must use fresh eggs.
Vanilla- You can use clear vanilla extract or add a teaspoon of vanilla beans. The former will produce a more dominant vanilla flavor, while the latter will be more subtle. If you add vanilla beans, pulse it with the batter in the food processor until it is completely incorporated.
Flour- You can use many flours, but the most ideal is all-purpose flour. The best thing about using all-purpose flour is that it will always provide your crumbls with a very moist and chewy texture.
Salt- The salt you will put in the batter is just for flavor, so you can decide how much salt you prefer. But you really should make sure not to add too much because this may result in a very salty crumbl. If possible, taste the batter at this point before adding in more salt and see if it has a strong enough flavor for your liking.
Baking soda- This ingredient is also just for flavor.
Chocolate chips- You can use any chocolate chip but make sure to use the dark variety because it will give the crumbl a superior flavor.
How to make the ruby chocolate chip crumbl
- Preheat oven to 350oF.
- Combine all of the ingredients that you have in a food processor and pulse until everything is mixed together. If you happen to be using a stand mixer, then you really should combine all the ingredients that you are using in a large bowl and mix with the paddle attachment on medium-low speed for approximately 30 seconds or until everything is connected well.
- Use a cookie scoop and fill the tin with batter by about two tablespoons to form round crumbls. Place them directly on a parchment paper-covered baking sheet and then transfer the baking sheet to the oven and also bake them for up to 10 minutes or until the crumbls turn golden brown. Remove from oven.
- Immediately after you’re done removing them from the oven, use a spatula to gently flatten each one so they will maintain their shape while cooling down.
- Place them on a wire rack with parchment paper placed underneath; this will help create these crumbls into small clusters.
- Leave them to cool down and enjoy!
Unique serving suggestion
Ruby chocolate chip crumbls are best eaten while they are still warm. But if you want to enjoy them at room temperature later on, you can store the crumbls in an airtight container with a sheet of parchment paper placed between each crumbl. This will make sure that it maintains its clusters for more extended periods.
The baking time is actually just a little longer than other cookies, and because of the crumbly consistency, the taste of these cookies is a little less sweet and somewhat more bitter than most cookie recipes. Think of this as an indulgent treat to be enjoyed once in a blue moon.
Conclusion
This box of ruby chocolate chip crumbl cookies is a great way to include chocolate into your diet. Not only are they made with organic ingredients, but they also contain no gluten or dairy.
