Now THIS is a best of both worlds dessert. If you're a chocolate dessert fanatic—this is the cookie for you. We combined two of our favorite classic desserts—cookies and brownies, of course—to create this dessert dream, so you never have to choose between the two again! With two kinds of chocolate chips, brownie mix and cocoa powder, these fudgy, extra-chocolatey cookies are made for the die-hard chocolate fans. Ready in under an hour, these combo cookies are the perfect easy dessert for a crowd, or a rich holiday dessert for the cherry on top of your main meal.
Can't wait to get your hands on this dessert mashup? Read on for some tips on whipping up your ultimate brownie cookie:
What makes this a "brownie" cookie?
In addition to classic cookie ingredients, we also threw in a box of brownie mix! Paired with the multiple kinds of chocolate chips, the brownie mix turns these cookies into an extra-fudgy, super chocolatey treat with that classic brownie finish on top.
What chocolate chips should I use?
That's totally up to preference! We chose a mix of semi-sweet and dark chocolate, but if you're a fan of a sweeter chip, you can always throw in some milk chocolate. We recommend adding in a few different kinds to really up the chocolate game in your brownie cookies. Plus, who ever complained about "too much" chocolate?
What causes a flat brownie cookie?
If your cookies turn out too flat, you might not be letting them chill for long enough before baking. For a fluffier cookie, make sure you're giving your dough adequate time to chill in the fridge—20 minutes at least!

- Step 1Preheat oven to 350°. Line 2 medium sheet trays with parchment paper and grease with cooking spray.
