Brownie Mix Cookies: Easy, Fudgy & Irresistible in 20 Minutes!


1. Prep & Preheat

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

  • Line baking sheets with parchment paper (prevents sticking).

2. Make the Dough

  1. In a large bowl, combine brownie mix, eggs, and oil. Stir until no dry streaks remain (dough will be thick).

  2. Fold in mix-ins (if using).

3. Scoop & Shape

  • Use a 1.5-tbsp cookie scoop (or a spoon) to portion dough.

  • Roll into balls, then flatten slightly (cookies spread a little but stay thick).

  • Pro tip: For stuffed cookies, press a 1/2 tsp Nutella into the center of each ball and seal the dough around it.

4. Bake to Perfection

  • Bake for 9–11 minutes (edges should look set; centers will be soft).

  • Let cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack (they firm up as they cool).

Expert Tips for the Best Cookies

🔥 Underbake slightly – They’ll continue to cook on the hot tray.
🍫 Double the chocolate – Toss in chocolate chunks and chips.
🧂 Add flaky salt – A sprinkle on top balances the sweetness.
⏳ Storage – Keep in an airtight container for up to 5 days (or freeze dough balls for later!).
