🧈 Ingredients

Dry Ingredients:

• 6¾ cups all-purpose flour

• 4½ tsp (1½ tbsp) baking powder

• 3 tsp (1 tbsp) baking soda

• 3 tsp cornstarch

  
  

Wet Ingredients:

• 2¼ cups dark brown sugar

• ¾ cup granulated sugar

• 6 cold eggs

• 2 tbsp caramel emulsion (Here)

• 3 cups (6 sticks) salted butter, slightly softened

• 4½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

  
  

Add-ons:

• Black cookie icing (Here)

• White chocolate melting wafers

🧁 Instructions

1. Prepare Dry Mix: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cornstarch. Set aside.

2. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, dark brown sugar, granulated sugar, and caramel emulsion. Mix until fully incorporated.

3. Add Eggs: Incorporate the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully mixed before adding the next.

4. Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

5. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

6. Shape the Teddy Bears:

   • Measure out 2.60 oz of dough, roll into a circle, and flatten slightly to form the head.

   • Measure out 0.28 oz balls for the ears and attach them to the head.

7. Chill the Dough: Place the shaped dough on a baking sheet and freeze for at least an hour, preferably overnight, to minimize spreading.

8. Bake: Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Bake the cookies for 18 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.

9. Decorate:

   • Once cooled, attach a white chocolate wafer to the center of each cookie for the snout.

   • Use black cookie icing to add eyes and a nose.

   
   

🎨 Decorating Tips

• For a touch of personality, consider adding a small bow tie or blush using colored icing.

• If you don't have caramel emulsion, a combination of vanilla extract and a hint of molasses can be a suitable substitute.
