The brownie cookie has arrived!
I finally have the perfect ratio of chocolates, sugars, and espresso powder to knock our socks off with a gooey brownie in cookie form! This cookie features a thin crust skin and a gooey cocoa center. Irresistible!
This is a version of my cookie dough brownie cake that I absolutely adore. I decided to make a cookie instead so I am not left with a ton of cake left…otherwise I would eat it all. Literally.
You can find the Edible Cookie Dough recipe here. Optional to sandwich between! Like I said it is a smaller version of the brownie cake…these are amazing on their own as well!
Check out the fudgy goodness below! This is when it is rolled into a ball with out flattening with palm before baking. They have a thick bite, just like a brownie!
Double the recipe for more cookies, these make about 8-10 depending on the size you roll. If less than 2 tablespoon you are scooping, bake about 12 minutes and let rest on pan. The residual heat will continue to bake the center!
