A brownie baked inside of a chocolate chip cookie, genius! The recipe is so easy to make, just a few simple buttery steps to follow.
The most important part is chilling the cookie dough – if it’s too warm, the brownies won’t fit in nicely. —AllieRazal
Ingredients
-
1 packet
Brownie Mix
-
2 3/4 cups
Flour
-
1 teaspoon
baking soda
-
1/2 teaspoon
baking powder
-
1 cup
Softened butter
-
1
egg
-
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
-
3 ounces
unsweetened chocolate
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Bake the brownies according to the directions on the box, cut into 1 inch squares and set aside.
-
In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
-
In another large bowl, mix together softened butter and sugar until smooth (you don’t need any electric mixers – I did this one by hand!). Beat in the egg and vanilla. Gradually, blend the dry ingredients, 1/2 cup of flour at a time. Make sure it’s well mixed.
-
Chop the chocolate into chunks and mix into the cookie dough. Cover with plastic and put in the fridge for at least one hour to chill – you want to work with cool dough because warmish dough becomes messy and unruly.
-
With a big spoon, take a handful of cookie dough and place on a cookie sheet (ideally with parchment paper, but who really has that?). Press a piece of brownie to the center and gently work the remaining dough around the brownie, shaping it in your hand to make a ball-ish formation.
-
Bake for about 10 – 15 minutes until golden brown.
