Brownie Mix Cookies You’ll Crave Over and Over

Let me just say it — brownie mix cookies are dangerous. Not because they’re complicated or time-consuming, but because they’re so easy, so ridiculously fudgy, and disappear faster than you can say 'just one more.' These cookies strike that perfect balance between the chewy bite of a brownie and the crisp edges of your favorite chocolate chip cookie. We’re talking about soft centers, crackly tops, and melty chocolate in every bite. They’re not just good — they’re 'hide them in a container and label them as broccoli so the kids won’t find them' good. Whether you’ve got a box of brownie mix staring at you from the pantry or you're in a full-blown dessert emergency (hey, it happens), this is the recipe you’ll want on hand. The ingredients are minimal. The steps are foolproof. And the results? Well, they speak for themselves. I’ve made these for bake sales, birthday parties, and let’s be honest, for no reason at all. They never disappoint. So if you’ve ever wondered what to do with that brownie mix or how to hack your way into cookie bliss, welcome. You’ve found your new favorite shortcut. Grab a bowl, preheat the oven, and let’s bake like we mean it.

Ingredients

  • 1 box brownie mix (18.3 oz, such as Betty Crocker or Ghirardelli)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix and flour. Stir in the oil, water, and eggs until fully incorporated.
  3. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  4. Scoop the dough into 1.5 tablespoon-sized portions and place them a few inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 8–10 minutes or until the tops are crinkly and the edges look set. The centers should still look slightly soft.
  6. Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
