Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 box brownie mix (choose gluten-free if desired)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup (60g) unsalted butter, softened or 1/4 cup oil (use coconut oil for dairy-free)

Optional Add-ins

  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts, pecans)
  • Other mix-ins like mint extract, crushed peppermint candies, or peanut butter for swirls

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the brownie mix with eggs and softened butter or oil. Stir the mixture until smooth and glossy, ensuring there are no lumps. This forms your cookie dough base.
  3. Add Optional Mix-ins: If desired, gently fold in chocolate chips, nuts, or any other preferred add-ins to evenly distribute flavors and texture throughout the dough.
  4. Shape the Cookies: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Space them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading during baking.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges begin to set while the centers remain slightly soft. This ensures a chewy and fudgy texture inside with crisp edges.
  6. Cool and Enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely, letting them firm up perfectly.

Notes

  • Measure ingredients precisely to maintain the ideal fudgy-chewy texture.
  • Remove cookies from the oven while centers are still slightly soft to avoid overbaking.
  • Using room temperature eggs and butter helps create a smooth batter and even bake.
  • For thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
  • Experiment with mix-ins like espresso powder or orange zest to enhance the chocolate flavor.
