Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 box brownie mix (approx. 18 oz)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
  • 1/4 cup sugar (if brownie mix is unsweetened)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Add-ins

  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chunks
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, etc.)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Dollops of peanut butter for swirl
  • 1 teaspoon espresso powder
  • Crushed peppermint candies or mint chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and aid cleanup.
  2. Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, oil or melted butter, sugar (if using), and vanilla extract. Stir until the batter is smooth and well mixed, but be careful not to overmix to keep the cookies tender.
  3. Fold in Extras: If using chocolate chips, nuts, or other add-ins, gently fold them into the batter ensuring even distribution throughout.
  4. Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cookie edges are set and slightly crispy but centers remain soft and fudgy. The cookies will firm up further as they cool.
  6. Cool and Enjoy: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them set without breaking.

Notes

  • Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking to prevent excessive spreading and to deepen flavors.
  • Use fresh brownie mix for best results and flavor.
  • Adjust sugar if your brownie mix is unsweetened to suit your sweetness preference.
  • Remove cookies from oven when centers look slightly underbaked for a soft, fudgy texture.
  • Experiment with different fats like coconut oil for variation in flavor.
