If you’re lucky enough to live by a Paradise Bakery, I’m hoping you’ve had one of of their chocolate chip cookies. It is hands down, my all-time favorite chocolate chip cookie in the history of forever. I know that’s hard to believe because I’m always posting new chocolate chip cookie recipes, but when it comes to store/bakery cookies, Paradise Bakery’s chocolate chip cookie kicks butt! It does cartwheels over Mrs. Fields. I can never eat just one.
Not only is their chocolate chip cookie amazing, but they sell “chippers” which are basically mini-size cookies. They have an oatmeal chocolate chip one and a black and white one which is a chocolate cookie with white chocolate chips. They are both delicious and quite addicting. Because they’re so little you just keep popping them in your mouth and before you know it, you’ve downed half the box (or sometimes the whole box).
When I ran across this recipe for Copycat Paradise Bakery chocolate chip chippers I was slightly ecstatic (ok, more than slightly). I made them the very next morning and then tried to practice self-control from eating them all. Be careful when eating these, because before you know it, you’ve downed 5 of them without even blinking. Now consider yourself warned.
I bake mine more towards the 9 minute mark just because I like mine slightly soft/undercooked in the middle. If you want yours a little firmer, bake them closer to 11 minutes, but watch them closely because like I’ve said before, every oven is different. Make sure not to overfill your cookie scoop. These are supposed to be small, so if your scoop is slightly under-filled then that’s ok. Mine actually turned out slightly bigger than I wanted, but of course that didn’t stop me from eating them :). If you don’t have a small cookie scoop, just use a spoon.
Have a great weekend.
- 1 cup butter , softened
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- ½ cup white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- ½ tsp. salt
- 3 cups quick-cooking oats
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips (I used 1 1/3 cups)
-
Preheat oven to 350.
-
In bowl of an electric mixer, cream butter, brown sugar, and white sugar.
-
Beat in eggs and vanilla.
-
Add flour, baking soda, and salt and mix until just blended.
-
Mix in oatmeal and chocolate chips.
-
With a small cookie scoop, place dough on an ungreased baking sheet. (Be sure not to over-fill the cookie scoop, you want to keep the cookie dough balls small. I like to run mine over the edge of the bowl to get off any excess dough).
-
Bake for 9-11 minutes.

I LOVE chippers!! We don’t have Paradise Bakery here in Tennessee but I grew up in Arizona with Paradise Bakery:) I was so excited when they came to Utah (since we were living there at the time). Now do you have their Sugar Cookie recipe? My kids love that one! xoxo
That is so sad for you that you don’t have a Paradise Bakery in Tennessee! I could eat an entire box of their chippers! I have their Sugar Cookie recipe but still haven’t made them, one of these days I will. I love all their cookies! I’m not a fan of raisins in cookies, but I love their oatmeal raisin cookies and I don’t even pick out the raisins :)! Hope you’re doing well. xoxo
I know someone who works there and one of the ingredients that they put into almost every cookie is coconut. Also most of the cookies use the same dough base recipe the just had different stuff like the oatmeal and raisins , they just had oatmeal, raisins instead of chocolate chips.
Oh, now I’m going to have to try adding coconut. I wish they gave out their actual recipes. Their chocolate chip cookie is my all time favorite cookie! Thanks for looking.
Even if you haven’t baked them, please share the sugar cookie recipe. Just recovering from radiation and my taste buds are returning. Had the cookies in Portland Or today. Need more………thank you
I live in AZ and stopped by Paradise Bakery today to pick up Cookies! Unfortunately, they are closed. I had heard rumor that Panera Bread bought them, but I was hoping it wasn’t all of them. So, I am happy to see copy cat recipes here!
Vickie, I just stopped by the Paradise Bakery by my house today and it’s closed! I wanted to cry. The sign on the door did say that two locations in Utah are still open. . . .thank goodness! They have the best chocolate chip cookie ever!
