Who says brownie mix is just for baking bars? With this simple recipe, you can transform a box of brownie mix into soft, chewy, and fudgy cookies loaded with chocolate chips. These cookies are rich, decadent, and perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth in no time!
Ingredients
(Makes about 18–20 cookies)
- 1 (19.8 ounce) package brownie mix
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) .
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Prepare the Cookie Dough
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix , all-purpose flour , vegetable oil , eggs , and water .
- Stir the ingredients together until a thick, sticky dough forms. Avoid overmixing.
- Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 3: Scoop and Shape the Cookies
- Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
- Gently flatten each dough ball slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers. The cookies will spread slightly as they bake but will retain a soft, puffy texture.
Step 4: Bake the Cookies
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes , or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. Be careful not to overbake—these cookies firm up as they cool.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 2–3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
- Once cooled, serve the cookies as-is or with a sprinkle of sea salt for a sweet-and-salty twist.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days (if they last that long!).
Tips for Success
- Brownie Mix Variations: Use your favorite flavor of brownie mix, such as dark chocolate, milk chocolate, or even a fudge swirl variety, for a unique twist.
- Add-Ins: Customize your cookies by adding chopped nuts, white chocolate chips, or caramel bits for extra flavor and texture.
- Chill the Dough: If the dough feels too sticky, chill it in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes before scooping to make it easier to handle.
- Double Chocolate Magic: For an ultra-rich treat, drizzle melted chocolate over the cooled cookies before serving.
