Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs
Decadent brownie bites stuffed with edible cookie dough.
The Components
The Brownie Shell
1 box Brownie mix (plus required oil/eggs/water)
The Cookie Dough Core
½ cup Unsalted butter, softened
½ cup Granulated sugar
½ cup Brown sugar, packed
1 tsp Vanilla extract
1 cup All-purpose flour
2 tbsp Milk
1 cup Mini chocolate chips
The Coating
8 oz Chocolate candy coating (or melting wafers)
Step-by-Step Assembly
1. Bake and Cool
Prepare the brownie mix according to the box instructions. Allow the brownies to cool completely before handling; if they are warm, they will fall apart during assembly.
2. Whip the Dough
In a medium bowl, cream the softened butter and both sugars until the mixture is light and fluffy. Stir in the vanilla.
3. Finish the Filling
Gradually blend in the flour. Add the milk to reach a dough-like consistency, then fold in the mini chocolate chips.
4. Chill the Centers
Roll the cookie dough into 24 small, uniform balls. Place them on parchment paper and freeze for 30 minutes to make them easy to wrap.
5. Encapsulate
Cut your cooled brownies into small squares. Take one square, flatten it gently with your palm, place a frozen dough ball in the center, and wrap the brownie around it. Roll it between your hands to form a smooth sphere.
6. The Chocolate Dip
Melt the candy coating until smooth. Using a fork or dipping tool, dunk each bomb into the chocolate. Let the excess drip off and place them back on the parchment paper.
7. Set and Serve
Allow the outer shell to harden completely at room temperature (or in the fridge for a faster set).
Chef’s Notes
Safety Tip: Since the cookie dough is unbaked, you can "heat treat" your flour by microwaving it for 60 seconds (reaching 74°C / 165°F) before mixing it in to ensure it's safe to eat.
Pro Portioning: Use a small cookie scoop for the dough balls to ensure all 24 bombs are the same size.
Drizzle: Use a little leftover white chocolate or caramel to drizzle over the tops for a professional finish.
