Brownie Cookies

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs, room temperature
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven
   Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients
   In a large bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and glossy.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients
   In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
4. Make the Dough
   Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
5. Scoop and Bake
   Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.

   Bake for 9–11 minutes, until edges are set and centers look slightly underbaked.

6. Cool
   Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Tips for Perfect Brownie Cookies

• Do not overbake — soft centers create that fudgy texture
• Use room-temperature eggs for a smoother batter
• Chill dough for 15–20 minutes if it feels too soft
• Add chopped walnuts or white chocolate for variation

Storage

• Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days
• Freeze baked cookies for up to 2 months
