Happy Monday! This weekend was insane at work, but I enjoy being busy because it makes the day go by quicker and I feel more accomplished when I cover multiple events.
Anyway, I was in need of a baking fix so I whipped up a batch of brownie cookies. The cookies were quickly devoured at work and everyone loved how they were, "like brownies in cookie form." Reporters have a way with words don't we😜 they're simple to make, only require a few basic ingredients and are a sure hit for any occasion!
Brownie Cookies
- 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
- 3 ounces semi sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 Tablespoons Hershey's special dark cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg
In a microwave safe bowl melt butter and three ounces of chocolate chips. Microwave for 30 seconds, stirring, and then microwaving for additional time until everything is melted.
Stir in sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, egg, and vanilla.
Slowly add in flour, I mixed in 1/2 cup at a time.
Finally, mix in chocolate chips.
Chill dough for 20-30 minutes.
While dough is cooling line a baking sheet with tin foil or spray with nonstick cook spray.
After dough has chilled scoop dough in small amounts, roughly a tablespoon or two, onto baking sheet.
Bake at 350F degrees for 8-12 minutes. The cookies are done when the tops are no longer shiny.
Allow cookies to cool completely before removing from baking sheet.
If you make them take a picture and tag me on instagram and use the hashtag #thesimplelife so I can see your creations!
