Description
Indulge in these decadent Meltaway Brownie Cookies, a delightful cross between a fudgy brownie and a chewy cookie, perfect for any chocolate lover.
Ingredients
Scale
For the Cookies:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Melt Chocolate: In a small saucepan, melt butter with 1 cup of chocolate chips over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Prepare Dough: In a large bowl, whisk sugar, eggs, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Stir in the melted chocolate mixture. In another bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips.
- Bake Cookies: Drop tablespoon-sized scoops of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until cookies are set but soft in the center.
- Final Touch: Allow to cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar.
Notes
- Do not overbake—the centers should remain fudgy for a meltaway texture.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
- For extra indulgence, sandwich two cookies with a layer of Nutella or vanilla ice cream.
