How to Make Cookies Using Brownie Mix
Cookies are a classic treat that can be made quickly and easily, and using brownie mix is a fantastic way to add a twist to this beloved dessert. Whether you’re short on time or looking to experiment with new flavors, this guide will show you how to make delicious cookies using brownie mix. Let’s dive into the process and start baking!
Ingredients
Before you begin, gather the following ingredients:
– 1 box of brownie mix (your choice of flavor)
– 1/4 cup of vegetable oil
– 2 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
2. Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract (if using). Mix the ingredients together until they are well combined. The batter should be thick and slightly sticky.
3. Scoop the Batter: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop dollops of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet. You can make the cookies as large or as small as you prefer, but remember that they will spread a bit during baking.
4. Bake the Cookies: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The center of the cookies should still be slightly soft to the touch.
5. Cool the Cookies: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
6. Decorate and Serve: Once the cookies are completely cooled, you can decorate them with icing, sprinkles, or any other toppings you desire. Serve the cookies immediately or store them in an airtight container for later enjoyment.
Expert Tips
– If you prefer a thicker cookie, you can add an extra tablespoon of flour to the batter.
– Feel free to customize the recipe by adding nuts, chocolate chips, or dried fruit to the batter for added texture and flavor.
– For a chocolatey twist, you can add a tablespoon of cocoa powder to the batter.
– To avoid overbaking, keep an eye on the cookies as they bake and remove them from the oven when they are still slightly soft in the center.
Making cookies using brownie mix is a quick and convenient way to enjoy a delicious treat. With this simple recipe, you can create mouthwatering cookies that are perfect for any occasion. Happy baking!
