I love making these Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs whenever I want to create something extra special. Each bite starts with a rich fudgy brownie wrapped around creamy cookie dough then dipped in smooth chocolate. They're my go-to treat for parties because everyone's eyes light up when they discover that surprise cookie dough center.

A Triple Chocolate Dream

These little bombs are pure magic combining three favorite desserts in one perfect bite. The way the gooey brownie hugs that cookie dough center and gets all wrapped up in a chocolate shell creates something truly irresistible. Even better they're so fun to make and customize with your favorite toppings.

What You'll Need

  • Brownie Mix or Homemade Brownies: Either works perfectly here.
  • Softened Butter: Makes our cookie dough extra creamy.
  • Granulated and Brown Sugar: Creates that perfect sweetness.
  • Heat-Treated Flour: Makes our cookie dough safe and delicious.
  • Mini Chocolate Chips: Because cookie dough needs chocolate bits.
  • Vanilla Extract: Adds that warm familiar flavor.
  • Semi-Sweet or Dark Chocolate: For that perfect chocolate shell.

Let's Make Magic

Start with Brownies:
Bake your favorite brownies let them cool completely then cut into squares.
Cookie Dough Time:
Mix up that cookie dough roll into balls and pop them in the fridge to firm up.
Build Your Bombs:
Wrap each cookie dough ball in brownie making sure everything's sealed tight.
Chocolate Bath:
Dip each ball in melted chocolate giving them a beautiful coating.
Make Them Pretty:
Add some drizzles sprinkles or nuts while the chocolate's still soft.

My Best Tips

  • Keep It Cool: Cold cookie dough is much easier to work with.
  • Quality Counts: Good chocolate makes all the difference in that outer shell.
  • Get Creative: Try adding Nutella or caramel to the centers.
  • Store Smart: Keep them in the fridge they'll stay perfect for a week.

Quick Answers

  • Shortcuts OK: Store-bought ingredients work great when you're short on time.
  • Safe Dough: Just heat that flour and skip the eggs you're good to go.
  • Freeze Some: They freeze beautifully for up to three months.
  • Going Gluten-Free: Easy to adapt with gluten-free ingredients.
  • Best Chocolate: Semi-sweet or dark gives the prettiest finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

→ Is the cookie dough safe to eat?

Yes, since there are no eggs in the dough, it's safe to eat raw. The flour can be heat-treated for extra safety.

→ Why is my chocolate coating cracking?

Let bombs warm slightly before dipping. Too cold centers can make chocolate crack as it sets.

→ Can I freeze these?

Yes, freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in fridge before serving.

→ How do I prevent messy chocolate coating?

Use a fork to dip and tap off excess. Let extra chocolate drip before placing on parchment.

→ Can I use homemade brownies?

Yes, any fudgy brownie recipe works. Just make sure they're cooled completely.
