Mrs Fields Cookie Recipe (Copycat) (2024)

Mrs Fields Cookie Recipe stuffed with chocolate chips is just like you remember from the mall. SO buttery and melt in your mouth delicious!!

I had always wondered why the Mrs Fields cookie recipe tasted so different than other chocolate chip cookie recipes. And, I decided to find out today.

Growing up, I used to love to visit the Mrs Fields cookie store in the shopping mall. I always thought it was so cool the way they scooped out the mounds of dough with their big ice cream scoopers.

I remember their large cookie cakes for birthdays and other celebrations decorated with bright colors and swirls of frosting looked so festive.

Well, today, I was using my cookie scoop to scoop out Mrs Fields cookie dough in my own kitchen. Dream come true. 🙂

So, it turns out, the main differences between the mrs fields chocolate chip cookie recipe and nestle tollhouse (my standard base chocolate chip cookie) are the following:

1. Salted butter, rather than unsalted.
2. Chilled butter, rather than softened.
3. Half cup more flour
4. More brown sugar than white sugar instead of an even split
5. Twice the amount of vanilla
6. Longer cooking time at a lower temperature

My family really gobbled these cookies up. They taste so buttery and chocolatey with the perfect crisp top. This is a definite keeper.

Tips for this Mrs Fields Cookie Recipe:

1. Chill the dough for an hour after mixing to prevent the cookies from spreading while cooking in the oven.
2. Do not skip the step where you cut the chilled salted butter into cubes. I found this step really helped the butter to fully incorporate into the batter.
3. Do not overmix and mix on low speed. Just mix the ingredients in your stand mixer, until you do not see streaks of flour.

I'm now looking forward to trying out the Mrs. Fields sugar cookie recipe and Mrs Fields peanut butter cookies recipe soon.

The Mrs Fields chocolate chip cookie nutrition facts are below the recipe. The good news is, you'll see its pretty similar to traditional chocolate chip cookies.

I always thought Mrs Fields cookies tasted more buttery than others (and therefore not as good for you), but I think that comes from the chilled butter instead of softened and longer cooking time on a lower temp. Really helps maintain the wonderful buttery taste. So, so good.

Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we did!
