🧺 Ingredients
- 1 box (18 oz) brownie mix
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- ½ cup chocolate chips or chunks (optional but highly recommended)
- ¼ cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans – optional)
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
👩🍳 Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, add the brownie mix and flour.
- Stir in the eggs and vegetable oil until a thick, glossy dough forms.
- Fold in chocolate chips and nuts, if using.
- Scoop dough using a tablespoon or cookie scoop and place 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 9–12 minutes, just until the tops crack and edges are set.
- Remove from oven and let cookies rest on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack.
🔥 Method (Why This Works)
- The brownie mix provides rich cocoa flavor and fudgy texture
- Adding flour turns brownie batter into scoopable cookie dough
- Slight underbaking keeps the centers soft and chewy
- Cooling on the pan helps the cookies finish setting without drying out
This method guarantees cookies that stay moist for days (if they last that long).
📜 A Little History
