Brownie Cookies Easy And Fudgy Wellplated Com

Rich and fudgy with a subtle chew, these easy brownie cookies combine my absolute favorite One Bowl Brownies and these dangerous Dark Chocolate Cookies into one sensational dessert that’s the best of both worlds.

Like brownies, these cookies are decadent and chocolaty.Like cookies, they have a caramelized, buttery taste and edges you won’t be able to resist picking off and popping right into your mouth.

Basically, if a cookie and a brownie had a baby, and if that baby were the most chubby-cheeked adorable baby of all time, it would be a fudge brownie cookie. This easy cookie dough doesn’t need to be refrigerated, meaning you can have a warm batch emerging from the oven about 25 minutes from now. I don’t know about you, but when I want a brownie, a cookie, or chocolate in general, I want it (no, need it!) NOW.

How to Make Chewy Brownie Cookies

Forget brownie cookies from a box (sorry, Ghirardelli). They are a breeze to make from scratch and so worth it!

Another reason to skip the mix is that you can make these fudgy brownie cookies any way you like.My favorite way to bake them is with a blend of toasted nuts for crunch and dark chocolate chips for good measure.

The Ingredients

Semisweet Chocolate. The perfect balance of deep chocolaty flavor and sweetness. It gives these cookies the rich chocolate flavor that makes brownies so addictive.Butter. For tender, flavorful cookies. All-Purpose Flour. All-purpose flour helps create the ideal cookie texture. You don’t need much for these fudgy cookies.Sugar. Rather than using a classic combo of white and brown sugar, I stuck to all white sugar. It adds sweetness to balance any bitterness from the chocolate and makes the cookies moist. Espresso Powder. It gives the cookies a more intense chocolate taste (I add it to almost every chocolate dessert, like Brownie Pie and Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies).

Vanilla. Elevates the chocolate flavor and adds warmth to the cookies. Walnuts. I love the nutty crunch that the walnuts add. They’re also rich in omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants (I know it’s a cookie, but I’ll take it!).

Dark Chocolate Chips. We’re taking the chocolatey goodness a step further by adding luscious dark chocolate chips.
