Cookie Dough Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix (approximately 18-20 oz)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil (or canola oil)
- 2 tablespoons (1/8 cup) all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
- Mix the dough: In a mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and all-purpose flour. Use an electric mixer on low speed to blend the ingredients until the batter is smooth and consistent.
- Shape the cookies: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing each about one inch apart to allow room for spreading.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the cookies for 8 to 9 minutes. The edges should be set while the centers stay soft and chewy.
- Cool: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 4 to 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely, which helps maintain their texture.
Notes
- For added texture and flavor, consider mixing in chocolate chips or chopped nuts before baking.
- Do not overbake; cookies continue to set as they cool, so removing them when edges are just firm prevents dryness.
- These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or frozen for longer storage.
- If desired, substitute vegetable oil with melted butter for a richer taste.
