    Oh Brookie! My new found chocolate indulgence. If you've never heard of it, it's a combination brownie and cookie. Could it get any better? I think not! And, here is the 'cheater's' version. So simple and quick to make. It makes lots too! What more could anyone want??

    ***A quick update - January 2015***

    Sometimes, these stick to the muffin pans.   I did provide the hint to use a plastic knife to loosen.  But, the last few times I've made them, I made them with the tin muffin liners.  It's made them so much easier to remove from the pan.   Also, just add a little treat on top to dress up and make them themed. (Like I did by adding Kisses for a Valentine's Day theme).   See bottom of post for a few updated pictures!

    The only other ingredients you need are what is required by your box of brownies. In this case it was just two eggs, ½ cup oil and 3 tablespoons water. This is one of those pantry type recipes where you don't need to run out to the store for that one crazy ingredient. And, it's a little different. Not many people have seen or tried this. And it has chocolate in it. Did I mention that?

    I've made these a few times and end up having 18 brookies. If you are a little less generous with the brownie batter, I'm sure you could stretch it to 24.

    Ingredients

    • 1 box brownie mix
    • 2 eggs
    • ½ cup vegetable oil
    • 3 tablespoons water
    • 1 packet break apart cookie dough
    • Pamspray for muffin tins

    Instructions

    Step 1

    • Make your brownie mix according to the package directions that you are using. This usually involves mixing eggs, oil and milk to the mix and stirring.

    Step 2

    • Generously spray muffin tins with Pam. Generously!

    Step 3

    • Put brownie batter into muffin tins. You want to fill each about ½ full or a touch less.
    • brookie step 3

    Step 4

    • Take prepared cookie dough and make a small disk. You want this to 'float' on the brownie batter.

    • brookie step 4

    Step 5

    • Bake for approx. 20-22 minutes at 350 degrees. Make sure you test for doneness. My oven runs hot and often bakes faster than others.

    Step 6

    • Important tip: After your brookies cool for about 10 minutes, take a PLASTIC knife and run it around your brookie to get it out of the muffin tin.

      I make these often. My family and friends love them. I variate sometimes and put the cookie on the bottom and brownie mix on top. I like them so much better this way. This recipe is so simple and delicious!

      I use non-stick jumbo muffin tins and fill each about 1/4 full because I like these to look like thick cookies (matches what our local bakery does). Otherwise, I follow the recipe as written. Haven't had a problem with them sticking to the pan. These were a big hit when my teenage son brought them as a treat to class.

      How. Much cookie dough is used for each Brookie?

        Hi @Karen Wehrheim! I would say, if you make a ball of dough, about an inch in diameter, then flatten to a disk.

      Oooo they sound delicious. I'm a fan of anything chocolate and who doesn't love chocolate chip cookie and brownies. Love that they are in a neat portion size too.

      A friend made brookies last month but the recipe was more complex than I wanted. These were super simple and a hit with my mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, and even the contractor finishing our basement! I gave them to everybody I saw and they all loved them and asked for the recipe. Thanks for doing what you're doing!

      I usually have the hardest time making brownies, but since they're kind of cupcake like, do you think that I could put them in cupcake papers in the cupcake tin? And could I use homemade cookie dough?
      Thank you,
      Hannah

        I think it would work fine! Just make sure you adjust your time for cupcakes instead of a pan of brownies.
