Ingredients

(Tip: You can find the complete list of ingredients and their measurements in the recipe card below.)

Brownie Mix or Homemade Brownie Batter
Brownie batter forms the fudgy base of the bites, providing deep chocolate flavor and structure.

Unsalted Butter
Butter adds richness to both the brownies and the cookie dough layer.

Granulated Sugar
Granulated sugar sweetens the brownie base and helps create a tender texture.

Brown Sugar
Brown sugar adds moisture and a subtle caramel note to the cookie dough.

All-Purpose Flour
Flour provides structure to the brownie base and body to the cookie dough.

Cocoa Powder
Cocoa powder intensifies the chocolate flavor of the brownies.

Milk
Milk helps create a smooth, creamy cookie dough texture.

Vanilla Extract
Vanilla enhances both the chocolate and cookie dough flavors.

Salt
Salt balances sweetness and enhances overall flavor.

Mini Chocolate Chips
Mini chocolate chips are ideal for even distribution throughout the cookie dough.

Directions

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a mini muffin pan.

Prepare the brownie batter according to your recipe or package instructions. Spoon the batter into the mini muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the brownies are just set but still soft in the center. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan.

While the brownies cool, prepare the edible cookie dough. In a bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add milk and vanilla extract and mix until combined.

Stir in flour and salt until a soft dough forms, then fold in the mini chocolate chips.

Once the brownie bites are completely cooled, press a small amount of cookie dough onto the top of each brownie bite, smoothing it gently.

Chill the brownie bites for 20 to 30 minutes to help the cookie dough set before serving.
