Gourmet Brownie Cookies


  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 24 cookies 1x
  • Diet: Vegetarian

Description

A delightful combination of rich, fudgy brownies and classic cookies with a chewy center and crispy edges.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, cream the two sugars with the unsalted butter until smooth.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring they’re well combined before adding the next, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into your wet mixture until just combined—don’t over mix!
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips gently, ensuring they’re evenly distributed.
  7. Using rounded tablespoons, drop the cookie dough onto ungreased baking sheets.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges feel set.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks for complete cooling.

Notes

Consider substituting unsweetened applesauce for the butter for a lighter option. These cookies are delicious on their own or served warm with vanilla ice cream.
