Light, fluffy and chocolatey treat filled with tinted cream cheese icing. Cakies have a soft, spongy consistency with a subtle chocolate flavour. When you enjoy them with cream cheese icing, Chocolate Cakie Sandwiches are even sweeter.

Have you ever had a cakie? Imagine a cookie so soft and fluffy, it’s like a spongy piece of cake. Well, that’s a cakie.
With a light, velvety consistency and a subtle chocolate flavour, Chocolate Cakie Sandwiches are a simple, sweet treat. Whether you decide to eat them as a sandwich, cupcake style with the icing on top, or on their own, cakies are always full of fluffy, chocolatey goodness.

Using both baking soda and baking powder gives the cakies their light, spongy consistency. Without them, cakies would be harder, crunchier, and more like a traditional cookie.
To make this dessert more fun, me and my two year old daughter tinted the colour of the cream cheese frosting. She chose three colours – yellow, green, and blue. Together we dropped in the food colour. She loved watching the cream cheese icing change from white to the vibrant colours you see below.

Chocolate Cakie Sandwiches are a fun party food. It’s easy for everyone to customize their own cakie. Choose your favourite coloured frosting and top it off with sprinkles. Whether you choose yellow, blue, green, or another coloured filling, Chocolate Cakie Sandwiches are a creamy, chocolatey treat.

To give the cakies a uniform size, I used a sandwich cookie pan (shown here). If you don’t have one, simply measure the cakie batter. Mine are 1 and 1/2 teaspoons each. They’re a little bigger than a silver dollar, perfect for a couple bites of cakie deliciousness.
