Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup brownie mix use your favorite brand
  • 3 tablespoons water

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease your muffin tin or line it with paper liners to prevent sticking.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a separate large bowl, cream the softened butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy, using an electric mixer or whisk.
  • Add the vanilla extract and egg, beating well to combine.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips gently.
  • In another bowl, combine the brownie mix with the water. Stir until smooth and fully blended, making sure there are no lumps.
  • Take about a tablespoon of cookie dough and press it into the bottom and up the sides of each muffin cup, forming a little cookie bowl.
  • Spoon about a tablespoon of brownie batter into the center of each cookie cup without overflowing.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the edges of the cookie dough are golden brown and the brownie centers have set but remain fudgy.
  • Remove from oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before carefully removing from the tin.
  • Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely or serve slightly warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Notes

  • Use vegan substitutes like vegan butter and flax egg to make this recipe dairy-free and egg-free.
  • Do not overmix the cookie dough to keep the cups tender and chewy.
  • Store cups in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Reheat gently in the oven before serving for best texture.
  • Try adding nuts or shredded coconut to the batter for extra flavor and texture.
