1/4 teaspoon Salt
1 cup Milk
2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1 cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips

Cookie Dough Filling
4 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, room temp

1 cup plus 2 Tablespoons All-Purpose Flour
7 oz Sweetened Condensed Milk

1/4 cup Mini Semisweet Chocolate Chips

Cookie Dough Frosting
3 sticks Unsalted Butter, room temp
3/4 cup Brown Sugar, packed
3 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
1 cup All-Purpose Flour
3/4 teaspoon Salt
3 Tablespoons Milk
2 1/2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract

Cupcakes 
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

2. With a mixer, combine the butter and brown sugar. Cream together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well and scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition.

3. In a medium bowl whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together. Alternate adding the dry ingredients to the mixer with the milk on low speed, starting and ending with the dry ingredients, mixing until just incorporated.

4. Blend in the vanilla. Then fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula. Divide the batter evenly between 24 cupcake liners. Bake for 18-20 minutes. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.

Cookie Dough Filling
1. Cream butter and sugar in a mixing bowl on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

2. Add flour, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla and beat until smooth. Stir in the chocolate chips and cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until the mixture has firmed up. About 1 hour.

3. After cupcakes have cooled, fill the cupcakes by cutting a cone-shaped portion out of the center of each cupcake. Fill each hole with a chunk of the chilled cookie dough mixture.

Cookie Dough Frosting
