Like what it says on the magazine, if a fudgy brownie and chewy chocolate chip cookie had a baby, it would be this decadent creation. —Oh Sweet Day!

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 egg
  • 4 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk powdered sugar, cocoa powder and salt in a large bowl.
  3. Whisk in egg whites and egg. Then fold in chopped chocolate.
  4. Spoon batter by the tablespoon on to the prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart.
  5. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes until cookies are puffed, cracked and set just around the edges. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely.

Hmmm? Didn't have success with this recipe like the other reviewers. Cookie structute so gooey and sticky that they even stuck to my Silpat. Couldn't get them off w/o them falling apart. And I found the overall taste too sweet. May end up chucking the whole batch.

These were exactly as advertised. Quick, easy, and most impotantly, they made good use of the egg whites we had left over from making fresh pasta tonight.

Not as good as Greenspan's World Peace, but then again, nothing is.

Mine were ready after baking only 10 minutes, but my batch yielded 39 brookies... yup, these were good enough to earn a nickname in our home.

I was so excited to try this recipe - - I love chewy brownies and chewy cookies so it made perfect sense that these would be great. They came out fine and everyone loved them, but I kept thinking there were some missing ingredients as the batter was extremely dry - wasn't able to whisk everything together - I just used my spatula. I will definitely make these again real soon - thanks for sharing!!!

Hi Darrell,
Sorry for the confusion. I wasn't able to find the right unit which is "whole" eggs. But anyhow, I took away the units now. Hope it helps! :)

Would you please explain what you mean by "pieces"of eggs and egg whites? I'm not familiar with that terminology.

Your recipe looks like it will taste similar to the really good chewy chocolate meringue type of cookies that I buy at Whole Foods. Yum. I must make this soon.
