Ingredients
Scale
For the brownie batter:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
For the cookie dough filling:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons milk (if needed)
For the topping:
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- Sprinkles or chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Make brownie batter: In a bowl, combine melted butter, sugar, egg, vanilla, cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Bake brownie batter: Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. Fill each liner halfway with brownie batter. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are set but the center is still soft. Let cool completely in the pan.
- Make cookie dough filling: In a separate bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Add vanilla extract and mix. Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until combined. Fold in mini chocolate chips. If the mixture is too crumbly, add milk a little at a time until it reaches a dough-like consistency.
- Fill brownie cups: Once the brownie cups have cooled, scoop a spoonful of cookie dough filling into each cup, pressing down gently.
- Melt chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips until smooth, stirring every 30 seconds. Drizzle or spread the melted chocolate over the cookie dough-filled brownie cups.
- Chill and serve: Refrigerate the cups for about 30 minutes to set the chocolate. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Ensure the brownie batter is not overcooked; it should be soft in the center for the best texture.
- Allow the brownie cups to cool completely before filling to prevent melting the cookie dough.
