Calling all cookie dough lovers and chocolate enthusiasts! This Funfetti Surprise Cookie Dough Swirl Roll is about to become your new favorite dessert. It’s a delightful combination of textures and flavors, with a soft, chewy cookie dough base wrapped around a rich fudge filling and bursting with colorful M&Ms.

This recipe is surprisingly easy to make and requires minimal effort. Plus, it’s incredibly versatile! Let’s dive into the fun.

Ingredients:

1 package (around 473g) pre-made chocolate chip cookie dough

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (divided)

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup softened unsalted butter

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/3 cup mini M&Ms

Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions:

Preheat and Prep: Get your oven ready at 375°F (190°C). Line a jelly roll pan (approximately 15×10 inches) with parchment paper for easy removal later.

Spread the Dough: Evenly spread the pre-made cookie dough in the prepared pan. Use a spatula to gently press it out, as the dough will be thick.

Bake the Base: Bake the cookie dough for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Take it out of the oven and let it cool slightly on a wire rack.

Whip Up the Fudge Filling: While the cookie base cools, transform some of the magic into a creamy fudge filling. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and 1/2 cup of chocolate chips. Stir constantly until the chocolate melts and the mixture becomes smooth and luxurious.

Butter Up the Flavor: Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the softened butter until it’s fully incorporated. Let the mixture cool slightly, but not completely.

Fill ‘Er Up: Once the cookie layer is cool enough to handle but still warm, spread the decadent fudge filling evenly over the entire surface.

Time for Funfetti Fun: Now comes the fun part! Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and the mini M&Ms over the filling, creating a vibrant and delicious surprise in every bite.

The Grand Roll: Here’s where the magic happens. Using a dusting of powdered sugar to prevent sticking, carefully roll up the warm cookie dough from the shorter end, jelly roll style. Imagine a delicious cinnamon roll, but with a surprise center!

Chill Out: Place the rolled-up masterpiece seam side down on a serving plate. Cover it loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until chilled and set. Patience is key here!

Slice and Savor: Now for the rewarding part! Slice the chilled Funfetti Surprise Cookie Dough Swirl Roll and enjoy the explosion of flavors and textures.

Serving Tips:

Presentation Points: For an extra touch of elegance, drizzle powdered sugar or chocolate sauce over the sliced roll before serving. You can also garnish with additional mini M&Ms or chopped nuts for a vibrant presentation.

Slice it Right: Use a sharp knife to ensure clean and even slices. Wipe the knife clean between cuts to prevent tearing or sticking.

Portion Perfection: This recipe yields a generous amount. Consider the occasion and the number of people you’re serving to determine appropriate portion sizes.

Storage Tips:

Refrigerate It: Store leftover Funfetti Surprise Cookie Dough Swirl Roll in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The cold temperature will help maintain the dough’s consistency and prevent the filling from softening excessively.

Freeze for Later: For longer storage, you can freeze the roll for up to 2 months. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then again in aluminum foil to prevent freezer burn. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.

Conclusion:

This Funfetti Surprise Cookie Dough Swirl Roll is guaranteed to impress everyone at your next gathering. It’s a showstopper dessert that’s easy to make and bursting with flavor. So, grab your ingredients, preheat your oven, and get ready to bake up some funfetti magic!
