Brownie Mix Cookies

Born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana (known for some of the best food in the world) I have a mixture of personal recipes as well as some favorites I've found along the way.

Indulge in the delightful fusion of brownies and cookies with this simple recipe. By utilizing a boxed brownie mix, you can effortlessly create cookies that boast a rich, fudgy center and slightly crisp edges. The preparation is straightforward: combine the brownie mix with an egg, vegetable oil, and water to form a thick dough. Scoop the dough onto a baking sheet, bake for a brief 6-8 minutes, and allow the cookies to cool, resulting in a chewy, chocolatey treat that's perfect for any occasion. For added flair, consider incorporating chocolate chips or nuts into the dough, or dusting the finished cookies with powdered sugar. These Brownie Mix Cookies are a quick and delicious way to satisfy your sweet tooth.

1 box (18.3 oz) Duncan Hines Chewy Fudge Brownie Mix

1 large egg

⅓ cup vegetable oil

2 tablespoons water

Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

subheading: Prepare Dough:

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, vegetable oil, and water until combined. Add the brownie mix and stir until a thick, sticky dough forms. Ensure no dry patches remain.

subheading: Portion Cookies:

Using a 1-tablespoon measuring spoon or cookie scoop, drop dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.

subheading: Bake:

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 6 to 8 minutes. The cookies should appear set around the edges but remain slightly soft in the center.

subheading: Cool:

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on it for 10 to 15 minutes. This allows them to firm up while maintaining a fudgy center

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 6 to 8 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

Baking Time: Be cautious not to overbake. The cookies will continue to cook on the baking sheet after removal from the oven. Overbaking can lead to a crispier texture rather than the desired chewy consistency.

Variations: For added flavor, consider mixing in chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar on top after baking for a crinkle effect.

Storage: Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. They retain their soft and chewy texture over several days.

Serving Suggestion: Enjoy these cookies on their own or pair them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful dessert experience.
