Ingredients
Scale
Cookies
- 18.3 oz box Fudge Brownie Mix
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup chocolate chips (preferably dark chocolate)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and promote even baking.
- Mix Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the entire brownie mix, ½ cup vegetable oil, and 2 large eggs. Stir the ingredients together until a soft dough forms, ensuring all dry ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips into the dough to evenly distribute the melty chocolate pieces throughout the cookies.
- Portion Dough: Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop rounded 1-1/2-inch thick balls of dough onto your prepared baking sheet. Make sure to space them about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
- Optional Topping: For extra richness and visual appeal, place a few additional chocolate chips on top of each dough ball before baking.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes. Check to see if the cookies have set; if they seem underbaked, continue to bake for 1-2 more minutes, keeping a close eye to avoid overbaking.
- Cool Cookies: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for about 10 minutes to firm up before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Make sure not to overbake the cookies to keep them soft and chewy rather than dry and cakey.
- Using dark chocolate chips provides a nice balance to the sweetness of the brownie mix.
- These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- For a twist, try adding chopped nuts or swirling in peanut butter before baking.
