Magic brownie cookies are rich, fudgy treats that combine the best parts of brownies and cookies. With shiny crackly tops, gooey centers, and deep chocolate flavor, they’re a decadent dessert that’s easy to make and impossible to resist.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Optional: 1/2 cup additional chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or mini marshmallows

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate and butter in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and creamy.
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract and the cooled chocolate mixture.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a thick, glossy batter forms.
  7. Fold in any optional add-ins like extra chocolate chips or nuts.
  8. Scoop tablespoons of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the tops are cracked and the edges are set. The centers should remain soft.
  10. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Chilling the batter briefly before baking can help prevent spreading.Add espresso powder for deeper chocolate flavor.Drizzle caramel or sprinkle sea salt after baking for extra flair.Store with a slice of bread in the container to keep cookies soft.This recipe doubles easily — bake in batches for best results.
