Ingredients

  • 1 box Ghirardelli Double Chocolate Brownie Mix (18 oz)
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 5 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips
  • ¾ cup walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven
  • Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  1. Prepare the Dough
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine brownie mix, flour, eggs, vegetable oil, and water.
  • Mix well until fully incorporated. The dough will be sticky but thick.
  1. Add Mix-Ins
  • Fold in mini chocolate chips and walnuts (if using).
  1. Scoop and Shape
  • Using a small cookie scoop, drop portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  1. Bake the Cookies
  • Bake for 8 minutes, or until the tops have a thin film and are no longer glossy.
  • Avoid overbaking, as these cookies cook quickly and can dry out.
  1. Cool and Serve
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack.
  • Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container for up to one week.

Tips for the Best Brownie Mix Cookies

  • Use a high-quality brownie mix for the richest flavor.
  • Let the dough rest for 15 minutes before baking to prevent excessive spreading.
  • Experiment with mix-ins like peanut butter chips, caramel bits, or crushed pretzels for a unique twist.
  • Pair with ice cream for an indulgent dessert.
