Perfect Brownie Cookie Recipe
Description
The Perfect Brownie Cookie Recipe brings together butter melted with strong brewed coffee and chocolate chunks, then combined with flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, eggs, sugar, and vanilla. The batter is folded with additional chocolate chips to add bursts of sweetness and texture. Baking the scooped dough on prepared sheets yields cookies with a fudgy interior and slightly firm edges that resemble brownie texture in a portable cookie form. The coffee enhances the chocolate without adding a coffee taste.
The balance of baking powder and careful mixing ensures the cookies rise slightly and retain chewiness. The dough should be spaced to allow even baking and prevent spreading into each other. These cookies are well suited for serving with milk or as a portable dessert or snack.
Enjoy these as a treat by themselves or alongside coffee or ice cream. Because they are dense with chocolate, they satisfy chocolate cravings without the need for frosting or additional toppings.
Ingredients
- 1/2 /2 cup butter salted
- 1/4 /4 cup coffee strong brewed
- 4 (1.5-ounce) chocolate broken into pieces
- 4 cups chocolate chips milk, semi-sweet or dark, divided
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 /2 cup cocoa powder unsweetened
- 1/2 /2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 /4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 large egg
- 1 1/2 /2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 /2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add butter, strong brewed coffee, chocolate bars and 2 cups chocolate chips to a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to prevent from sticking as it melts. Remove from heat once melted and cool completely.
- Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 350º F. Line rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper or silicon baking mats.
- Beat together eggs and granulated sugar until the eggs have lightened in color with an electric mixer on medium speed. Lower the speed of the mixer and add in vanilla. Slowly stir in cooled melted chocolate mixture and flour mixture, taking care to stop and scrape down the sides and the bottom to make sure well-combined. Stir in remaining 2 cups of chocolate chips.
- Scoop batter with a medium (2 tablespoon) cookie scoop or a heaping tablespoon and drop onto prepared baking sheets. Leave about 2 inches of space between each drop of brownie cookie dough to allow the cookies to spread. Place into the preheated oven and bake until the cookies are shiny in color and cooked throughout, about 12 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely before removing from the cookie sheet with a spatula to a wire rack or a cookie plate. Store in an airtight container.
