1 box (18–20 oz) brownie mix (fudge-style recommended)
02 -
¼ cup all-purpose flour (optional, for extra structure)
03 -
2 eggs
04 -

07 -
Pinch of salt
→ Optional Toppings
08 -
Sea salt flakes
09 -
Crushed nuts
10 -
Mini marshmallows
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
02 -
In a large bowl, combine the dry brownie mix, flour (if using), and a pinch of salt. Add the eggs, oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract. Stir until a thick, sticky dough forms. Fold in the chocolate chips and any other add-ins of your choice.
03 -
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, form balls of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. The dough will be sticky, so you might need to lightly wet your hands or the scoop.
04 -
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. The edges should be set, but the centers will still be soft. For a chewier cookie, don't overbake - they'll continue to firm up as they cool.
05 -
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container.
# Notes:
01 -
For puffier, thicker cookies, refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
02 -
The cookies will look slightly underdone in the center when you take them out - this is perfect for a chewy texture.
03 -
For a special occasion, add 1/4 cup of festive sprinkles to the dough for a birthday cake brownie cookie.
