Ingredients

  • 1 18 oz box favorite brownie mix
  • 1/2 cup (111g) salted butter melted
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup (76g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp milk *if needed
  • 1 cup (200g) chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° F (180°C).
  • Mix together the brownie mix, melted butter, egg and flour.
  • The dough should be quite soft, if your dough is pretty stiff, mix in 1 tbsp of milk or else your cookies will not spread at all. If your dough is soft, you can omit the milk.
  • Mix in your chocolate chips.Scoop into equal sized balls and arrange on a cookie sheet.
  • For small cookies, use 1 1/2 tbsp of dough (#50 scoops). For medium sized cookies, use 3 tbsp of dough.
  • Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 8-11 minutes or until the tops are no longer glossy.
  • Let cool for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack.

Notes

*I like to bake one cookie first alone to gauge if I need to add some milk to the dough or not. If your cookies spread fine, then go ahead and bake them all up. If they stay in a ball and refuse to spread, add the milk to the remaining dough and then scoop and bake.
All brownie mixes are different. Ghirardelli brand brownie mix usually does not need the extra milk. Betty Crocker usually does need the milk.
