Fudgy brownie cookies are a delightful treat that combines the best of both worlds: the rich, chocolatey goodness of brownies and the chewy texture of cookies. These cookies are often made with ingredients like cocoa powder and chocolate chips to achieve a decadent, fudgy flavor.
Here’s a basic recipe for fudgy brownie cookies:
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips or chunks
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Stir until well combined.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, and mix until the batter is smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in the chocolate chips or chunks to the cookie dough. The dough will be thick and fudgy.
- Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set, but the centers are still soft. Be careful not to overbake, as you want them to be fudgy.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
These fudgy brownie cookies are sure to satisfy your chocolate cravings. You can customize them by adding nuts, white chocolate chips, or any other mix-ins you prefer. Enjoy!
