Description

Magic Brownie Cookies are rich, fudgy brownie-style cookies with shiny crackled tops. This easy one-bowl recipe uses simple pantry ingredients and bakes in under 30 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Melt butter and chocolate chips together in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly.
  3. Whisk granulated sugar and brown sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until glossy.
  4. Add eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until thick and well combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Gently fold dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture until just combined.
  7. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until tops are crackled and centers are soft.
  9. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Slightly underbake for fudgy centers.
  • Use high-quality chocolate for best flavor.
  • Cookies will firm up as they cool.
