Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Base:
- 1 box (18 ounces / 510 grams) brownie mix
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Liquid Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) vegetable oil
Dry Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (30 grams) all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Prepare the oven environment by heating to 350F (175C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper for optimal cookie performance.
- Create a foundational mixture by blending brownie mix with flour in a large mixing bowl, ensuring thorough incorporation.
- Introduce moisture and binding agents by whisking eggs and vegetable oil into the dry ingredients until a cohesive dough forms.
- Enhance the texture and flavor profile by gently folding chocolate chips throughout the mixture if desired.
- Portion the dough into uniform tablespoon-sized rounds, strategically positioning them approximately 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet to allow proper spreading.
- Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, watching for distinctive visual cues: set edges with centers maintaining a slight softness, indicating perfect doneness.
- Implement a cooling protocol by allowing cookies to rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, which helps them stabilize, then transfer to a wire rack for complete cooling and final texture development.
Notes
- less flour creates chewier cookies, more flour makes them crisper and more structured.
- Experiment with mix-ins like chopped nuts, dried fruit, or different chocolate varieties to transform the basic recipe into unique flavor profiles.
- Chill the dough for 15-20 minutes before baking to prevent excessive spreading and create thicker, more uniform cookies with concentrated flavor.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, separating layers with parchment paper to maintain optimal freshness and prevent sticking.
