Where to Get Cookie Num Nums at Disneyland

If you happen to find yourself at Disney California Adventure, you are in luck! This is where you will find the cookie that inspired this recipe! (And if you are not at Disneyland, check out some amazing savings on Disneyland tickets and hotel rooms here.)

If you have seen The Incredibles, I’m sure you have heard of Jack-Jack Cookie Num Nums. In the movie, Jack Jack goes absolutely crazy over warm chocolate chip cookies!

 Right at the exit to the Incredicoaster, there is a little cookie stand where you can purchase these goodies. And, if you ride the coaster, Disney pumps the smell of chocolate chip cookies into the tunnel! It smells like heaven!

But, when you’re not able to go to Disneyland as often as you’d like, you can make these delicious cookies at home with this recipe!Also, if you want to go to Disneyland more often, definitely check out my tips on visiting Disneyland on a Budget. You’re welcome 🙂

Perfect Deep Dish Chocolate Chip Cookies

These Cookes are crispy on the outside, but oh so soft and gooey on the inside. I used a combination of chocolate chunks and mini chocolate chips to make sure that each bite was stuffed full of chocolate for the chocolate lover! I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

The ingredient ratios used in this recipe are absolutely spot on. If you’re wondering why chocolate chip cookies sometimes don’t turn out, make sure you are measuring your ingredients exactly.

Baking is a science. Adding too much butter can cause cookies to be flat and greasy. Adding too little butter can cause the cookies to be tough and crumbly. I almost always use light brown sugar when I make chocolate chip cookies, but dark brown sugar also adds a depth to the flavor of the cookies, which some people like.

Deep Dish Chocolate Chip Cookie Ingredients

*Ingredient amounts are located in the recipe card at the end of this post.

  • Butter: Make sure your butter is softened to room temperature before mixing. This will ensure that the butter mixes evenly with the other ingredients.
  • White Sugar and Light Brown Sugar: Using both white sugar and light brown sugar adds a perfect balance of sweetness and caramel-like flavor to the cookies.
  • Eggs: The eggs help bind all the ingredients together, creating a thick and chewy texture.
  • Vanilla Extract: This adds a delicious vanilla flavor to the cookies. I recommend using pure vanilla extract for the best taste.
  • Baking Soda and Salt: These two ingredients are essential in activating the leavening agents and providing balance to the sweetness of the cookies.
  • All-Purpose Flour: This white flour is the base ingredient for these cookies and helps create that perfect texture.
  • Chocolate Chunks and Mini Chocolate Chips: The real star of these cookies! Feel free to use your favorite brand of chocolate or mix and match different types for a unique flavor combination. You can even add nuts or other mix-ins if you'd like! I like to use semisweet chocolate chips.

How to Store Chocolate Chip Cookies

How to Freeze Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

If you don't want to bake the entire batch of cookies at once, you can freeze individual servings of dough to bake later. Just use a cookie dough to measure the dough and freeze the dough balls. Transfer them to a freezer-safe ziplock bag. Bake the cookie dough strait from the freezer, but add a minute or two to the baking time if necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I use cookie butter in this recipe instead of regular butter? No, cookie butter will not give you the same results as regular butter. If you want the flavors of cookie butter, try this recipe for Cookie Butter Stuffed Cookies.
  • Can I substitute whole wheat flour for all-purpose flour? While you can make this substitution, your cookies may turn out denser and with a different taste. If you want to use whole wheat flour, try using half all-purpose and half whole wheat for the best results.
  • Can I add nuts or other mix-ins to these cookies? Absolutely! Feel free to add any mix-ins you'd like, such as chopped nuts, dried fruit, or even candy pieces. Just make sure to adjust the amount of chocolate chips accordingly so your cookies don't become too crowded with mix-ins.
Use a ¼ Cup Cookie Scoop to scoop the dough into each liner. Press 3 or 4 chocolate chunks on top of each cookie.

    I have made these twice in the past three days. First attempt I used a number 16 scoop leveled and got 17 cookies out of the batter so I know I was close to the recommended dough for each cup. I checked the cookies after 14 minutes and the dough looked very pale so I did bake them a bit longer. Took the cookie- cupcake out of oven and they looked beautiful BUT they completely sunk in the middle. They were a bit gooey but tasted wonderful. I figured I may have under baked them or filled them a tad too full.
    Attempt number two today. I used a scant number 16 scoop and got 23 cookie-cupcakes. I baked these a bit longer maybe 16-17 minutes and once again was rewarded with huge pot holes in each cookie. I’m thinking of putting a dollop swirl of buttercream in the center for some and filling the rest with ice cream to make the best of this batch. I really want these to work. Any suggestions?
