Total Time

Servings
- About 24 bombs
Ingredients
For the Brownies:
- 1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on the box, such as eggs, oil, and water)
For the Cookie Dough:
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
For the Chocolate Coating:
- 2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark chocolate work well)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
Step 1: Bake the Brownies
- Preheat your oven according to the brownie mix package instructions.
- Prepare the brownie batter as directed and pour it into a greased or parchment-lined 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before handling.
Step 2: Make the Cookie Dough
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the milk and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
- Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing on low speed until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 3: Form the Cookie Dough Balls
- Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, form the cookie dough into small balls (about 1-inch in diameter). Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Freeze the cookie dough balls for 30 minutes , or until firm.
Step 4: Assemble the Brownie Bombs
- Crumble the cooled brownies into small pieces using your hands or a fork.
- Take a piece of brownie and flatten it slightly in your palm. Place a frozen cookie dough ball in the center, then wrap the brownie around the dough ball, pressing gently to seal. Roll the ball between your hands to smooth it out. Repeat with the remaining brownie pieces and cookie dough balls.
Step 5: Coat with Chocolate
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and vegetable oil together in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth and fully melted.
- Dip each brownie bomb into the melted chocolate, using a fork or dipping tool to coat it completely. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the coated bomb back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate the brownie bombs for 15–20 minutes , or until the chocolate is set.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
- Once the chocolate has hardened, serve the brownie bombs at room temperature or chilled. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week , or freeze for longer storage.
Pro Tips
- Flavor Variations: Swap the mini chocolate chips in the cookie dough for white chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, or chopped nuts for a different twist.
- Double Coating: For an extra-thick chocolate shell, dip the brownie bombs twice, allowing the first layer to set before adding the second.
- Storage: Keep the brownie bombs refrigerated to maintain their shape and freshness. Let them sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before serving for the best texture.
- Freezing: Place the brownie bombs in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container and store for up to 3 months . Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
