Description

These fudgy chocolate brownie cookies combine the rich, gooey center of a brownie with the crisp edges of a cookie, offering deep chocolate flavor and satisfying texture in every bite.


Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup white granulated sugar
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 egg
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1⅓ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (add more if desired)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the cocoa powder, sugar, melted butter, and vegetable oil until well combined.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  4. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir the dry ingredients together lightly before mixing them into the wet ingredients until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Scoop equal-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking trays, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Press down slightly to flatten.
  7. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked.
  8. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking trays for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the dough to maintain fudgy texture.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze for up to 3 months in a freezer-safe bag or container.
  • Microwave for 10–15 seconds to enjoy warm cookies.
