    🌱 Vegan Insomnia Chocolate Chunk Cookie Recipe

    While this may seem like yet another chocolate chunk recipe, I've switched it up by sharing a vegan Insmonia-style chocolate chunk. This recipe captures the essence of Insomnia's classic, delivering a perfect blend of crispy edges and a chewy, soft center with a vegan egg substitute and vegan butter.

    To keep everything plant-based, vegan chocolate chunks are folded into the batter; but if you don’t have this on hand, feel free to substitute the chocolate for any type of chocolate that you have in your pantry.

    ☘️ Double Mint Chocolate Cookies

    These double mint chocolate cookies are exactly what mint chocolate lovers dream about. This Insomnia Cookie-styled recipe is delectably soft and chewy and perfectly chocolatey and minty at the same time.

    The cookies boast of melty milk chocolate & minty green chips, though you can swap as needed, doubling the cool mint flavor with Andes mints and mint Oreo pieces. The unique texture is both equally fudgy and refreshing, perfect for late-night snacking. You could also swap the chips for Keto chocolates, dairy-free chocolates, sugar-free chocolate chips, or some good old craft chocolate.

    🍫 Copycat Insomnia S'mores Cookies

    Another classic you can use to douse any late night cravings is found in these scrumptious campfire goodies. These Insomnia Cookies copycat recipe are all about the nostalgia of camp and summertime bonfires.

    Featuring a deluxe blend of graham crackers, marshmallows, and dark chocolate, this recipe creates a cookie that's equal parts crunchy and gooey. This little copycat is all about capturing the texture and flavor of the original recipe, but using a combination of boxed brownie mix and pudding mix.

    🍪 Classic with M&M’s

    What's a better combination than everyone's favorite chocolate snack + fresh-baked cookies? This classic Insomnia cookies with M&M's is a recipe you'll want to save for a rainy day. 

    Colorful, fun, and utterly delightful, these are the best M&M cookies you'll have without actually going to Insomnia Cookies. They're soft and chewy with crisp edges and a candy-coated shell that'll melt in your mouth. They’re deliciously aesthetic perfect for an Easter, Spring or Mother’s day soiree. 

    Classic with M&M’s

    🥜 Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

    Reese's have such a die-hard following that most bakeries and confectioneries have a Reese's-flavored or -inspired sweet treat on its menu. This Insomnia cookie copycat recipe is no exception. 

    Though the concept isn't new, like combining salt in chocolate, these copycat cookies are a pleasant revelation. The combination of creamy peanut butter and delicious chocolate flavor in every bite of these huge cookies are amazing. A heavenly mix of smoothness and crunch, this sweet and salty combo is a win in my book.

    🥐 Cinnamon Roll Cookies

    These cookies aren't just for a late-night treat. To prove their cookie-making prowess, Insomnia Cookies launched their sweet breakfast cookies lineup, including this deluxe cinnamon roll cookie. Like its breakfast cousins, cinnamon sticky buns or cinnamon rolls, these cookies are all about cinnamon sugar goodness with a thick dough but soft center. 

    However this hack is that and more; with its unique crispy crackling exterior, it makes for comforting late-night munchies. The creamy, buttery brown sugar cinnamon filling is so good you'll want to eat more than one or two cookies at a time. They’re excellent for breakfast, paired with healthy hot beverages like olive oil coffee or cacao tea.

    🍫 Insomnia Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies

    Yes, these cookies taste as good as they sound! These cookies take the classic chocolate chip cookie up a notch with an extra dose of chocolate with cocoa powder plus milk chocolate chunks. 

    They're chewy and incredibly chocolaty, with wonderfully crisp buttery edges, filled with milk chocolate chunks (from chopping up a chocolate bar) in true Insomnia Cookies fashion. You can add more cacao goodness in there by using an extra quarter cup of raw chocolate chunks or cacao nibs.
