Fudge Brownie Cookies


The other day, as I was sitting there thinking about chocolate and butter, I thought... if you can make cookies with cake batter, then why can't you make them with brownie mix??  I think brilliant, deep, intellectual thoughts.  So off to the store I went in search of brownie mix.  And then I made deeply rich, chocolaty cookies with a fudgy interior and a crusty, brownie-like exterior.  Did I mention the gooey chocolate chunks?  I'm a genius.    


Fudge Brownie Cookies
Makes 2 dozen

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temp
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp brewed coffee, cooled
1 3/4 cup fudge brownie mix
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 pkg. semi sweet (or dark) chocolate chips

In a medium bowl, whisk together brownie mix, flour, baking soda and salt.  Set aside.  In a larger bowl, mix together butter and brown sugar.  Add egg, vanilla and coffee and mix.  Slowly mix in dry ingredients.  Add chocolate chips and stir.  Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.  Preheat oven to 350.  Place rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased (or parchment lined) baking sheet.  Bake for 10 minutes.
