Ok, I get that these sound weird.
Gross even?
But trust my dear friends, I shant tell a lie.
Here’s the thing. I have basically made every type of Chocolate Chip Cookie under the sun. For real.
I feel like it’s getting a little old at this point…but thus I continue.
Also, I have been watching a lot of Game of Throne lately, so I find myself using olden-days type of words into my everyday speak.
Anyway, like I said last week I am working with Challenge Butter this year…and I was poking around their website at recipes and came across this Hard Boiled Egg Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe and knew I must make.
Because weird.
So anyhow, I gave it a go, because I have about 2 dozen hard boiled eggs left from Easter that I need to start using up.
(FYI, I googled how long hard boiled eggs were good for after boiled and it said 7 days in the fridge)
So basically I knew time was running out. It was a cookie emergency.
I even made a quick little video to prove to you that these, not only work, but might be your new favorite way to make chocolate chip cookies!

Gooey, soft and delicious…with no eggs bits in sight. I knew you would ask!
You’ll notice these cookies are a touch more dense than a normal CCC…and the dough is a bit dryer, but obvi because there are no wet eggs. Don’t fret, it’s fine.
Avoid Over Baking Hard Boiled Egg Chocolate Chip Cookies
I actually prefer a denser cookie. The trick though is the baking time. Please oh please don’t over bake these guys. Under bake them, even. If you cook them all the way through you will have hard dry cookies. Yuck.
Grab 2 hard boiled eggs. And peel them, for the love.

Dice those eggs up small…

Your batter will be pretty standard, just a little drier. Also, yes you might see bits of egg…don’t worry about this.

And bake them until they are golden around the edges. Again, do not over bake.

Description
These Hard Boiled Egg Chocolate Chip Cookies are SO delicious! They taste just like a regular Chocolate Chip Cookie, but with a thick, softtexture. I LOVED these!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup butter, room temperature
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 hard boiled eggs, peeled and very small diced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In the bowl of your stand or electric mixer, cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar, approximately 2 minutes until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla diced eggs and continue mixing. (You will still see egg bits in the batter, this is ok)
- Add in baking soda, salt and flour and mix until combined.
- Stir in chocolate chips.
- Scoop onto prepared pan using a medium (2- tablespoon) cookie scoop.
- Bake for 9-10 minutes until edges begin to golden. You don’t want to over-bake these, if in doubt under-bake. Because of the lack of wet eggs, the batter will be dry, making cookie dense. Over-baking will produce hard, dry cookies.
- Allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet for 4 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Store airtight at room temperature for up to 3 days.
