Description
Delicious marbled brownie chocolate chip cookies that combine the rich flavors of brownies and chocolate chip cookies in one irresistible treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup brownie mix (dry)
- 1/2 cup walnuts or pecans, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts if using.
- In a small bowl, prepare the brownie mix according to the package instructions, but do not bake it.
- Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Then, scoop about 1 teaspoon of the brownie batter on top of the cookie dough. Use a toothpick or the back of a spoon to swirl the brownie batter into the cookie dough, creating a marbled effect.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked; they will continue to cook as they cool.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, try using dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
- Add a pinch of espresso powder to the cookie dough for a subtle coffee flavor that enhances the chocolate.
