Ingredients

For the Edible Cookie Dough:

  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp milk (or cream)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (heat-treated for safety)
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips

For the Brownies:

  • 1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients required on the box: usually eggs, oil, water)
    (or make homemade fudgy brownies if you prefer)

For the Coating:

  • 16 oz semi-sweet or milk chocolate, chopped or in chips
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil or vegetable shortening (optional, for smooth dipping)

Garnish (Optional):

  • White chocolate drizzle
  • Sprinkles
  • Sea salt flakes

Instructions & Methods

Step 1: Bake the Brownies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare brownie batter according to package or recipe instructions.
  3. Bake in a 9×13 pan until fudgy but set (do not overbake).
  4. Allow brownies to cool completely, then cut into small bite-sized squares.

Step 2: Prepare the Edible Cookie Dough

  1. Heat-treat flour: spread flour on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes, or microwave for 1 minute, to kill bacteria. Let it cool.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Mix in vanilla and milk.
  4. Gradually add cooled flour until combined.
  5. Stir in mini chocolate chips.

Step 3: Assemble the Bombs

  1. Take a small brownie square and flatten it slightly in your palm.
  2. Scoop a teaspoon of cookie dough and place it in the center.
  3. Wrap the brownie around the cookie dough to form a ball.
  4. Place all assembled bombs on a parchment-lined tray. Freeze for 30 minutes until firm.

Step 4: Coat in Chocolate

  1. Melt chocolate with coconut oil/shortening in a microwave or double boiler until smooth.
  2. Dip each brownie bomb into the chocolate, coating fully.
  3. Place back on parchment paper and let set.
  4. Drizzle with melted white chocolate, sprinkle with sea salt, or decorate with sprinkles if desired.

History & Formation

The concept of dessert “bombs” originated as a playful twist on cake pops and truffles. By combining multiple desserts into a single bite, bakers created a layered explosion of flavors. Brownies, which were invented in the U.S. in the late 19th century, and chocolate chip cookies, introduced in the 1930s by Ruth Wakefield, are two American icons. Merging them with modern candy-making techniques gave birth to indulgent treats like Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs—a 21st-century celebration of chocolate in all its glory.

Serving Suggestions

  • Serve chilled for a truffle-like texture.
  • Enjoy at room temperature for a softer, gooier bite.
  • Pair with a cold glass of milk, hot cocoa, or even coffee for adults.

Conclusion

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs are not just a dessert—they’re an experience. Each bite delivers layers of nostalgia, decadence, and comfort. Perfect for gatherings, gifting, or simply treating yourself, these little bombs prove that sometimes, more is more when it comes to chocolate.

For Chocolate Lovers ❤️🍫

  • Add peanut butter chips to the cookie dough for a Reese’s-inspired version.
  • Swap semi-sweet chocolate coating for dark chocolate if you like a bolder bite.
  • Roll finished bombs in crushed Oreos, nuts, or coconut flakes for texture.
