This Brownie Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe is rich and fudgy! In this dessert, brownies are wrapped in a crispy chocolate chip cookie.
Brownie Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies
I present to you my newest love the BROWNIE Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie! These bad boys weigh a ton, look gorgeous and taste like a million bucks. Bake up a batch of brownies ahead of time, so you don’t have to wait for them to cool. Cut them in little squares and get to stuffing 🙂 Wait until you see the size of these when that oven timer goes off. I about died. Hope you enjoy my crazy concoctions 🙂

What You’ll Need
- brownie mix– 9 x 13 inch size mix. I like Ghirardelli brownie mix.
- granulated sugar– This fine sugar gives the sweetness to the cookies.
- light brown sugar– When shopping for brown sugar, you’ll have light or dark brown sugar to choose from. I use the light brown sugar for these cookies.
- large eggs– For consistency, I always use large eggs for my cooking and baking.
- pure vanilla extract– For best tasting results use pure vanilla.
- all-purposes flour– All-purpose flour is the main dry ingredient for these cookies.
- kosher salt- Kosher salt is a coarse salt, I prefer it for my cooking and baking.
- baking soda– Baking soda helps the cookies rise while baking.
- chocolate chips– Use your favorite chocolate chips. Milk, dark or even white or butterscotch.

And the brownie won’t overcook?
I have a question can we do this with any chocolate chip cookie recipe? I actually like my cookie more soft than crunchy.
I think I did something wrong. Mine are like huge balls after baking. They are not thin like yours. Did you flatten the brownie between the dough?
These cookies are fantastic! my nephew loves brownies and cookies, so I searched for the perfect recipe to make for his birthday. THIS WAS IT! The first time I made them, I did a double batch and they didn’t turn out quite so good. Although everyone else thought they did, but I’m a hard critic on myself. The 2nd time I made them, they came pout perfectly! It does only about make about 16 cookies if your lucky, but it’s hard to eat a whole one because they are so big. They pair perfectly with a tall glass of milk. And I have to say, my 16 yr old nephew was very happy which was more important to me than anything! Thank You for helping me make my nephew’s day special!
How the heck did you get them so flat?? Mine came out as big as when I put them in. They look like monsters. lol
I have the same problem. They do come out quite thick and large.
Question!
I made these but mine didn’t flatten. 🙁 Why? Did I do something wrong? I followed the recipe exactly. I smashed. I baked. Still fluffy.
Made a batch of these yesterday and fed them to my housemates. I saw their faces melt with joy before my very eyes 🙂 I think these will be a common sight in my house from now on!
These are great. Some how I ended up with twice as many VERY large cookies as you. So yours must be VVEEEEEERRRY large. I thought it was helpful to flatten one ball of cookie dough, wrap it around the brownie and add as much as needed on top.
A friend linked me to your site a couple weeks ago and I’m in love! Just pulled some of these out of the oven, but mine didn’t spread out flat like yours! They look delicious, but they’re still pretty round and roly-poly looking. Any suggestions to help them flatten out when I try them again?? Thanks!
I’m definitely making this! Thanks for the easy recipe!
I just made these tonight. They are delicious! The only issue I had was sealing the edges. My cookies were WAY bigger than these lol. I will definately make these again sometime. It made 12 VERY large cookies.
Yah, the edges can get tricky. The firmer you can form them the better.
How you get your cookies to bake so flat is beyond me! I made these for my boyfriend today and I know he’ll love them…even if he can only make it through half of one!
P.S. If anyone is reading this…I made my brownies in a 9×13 inch pan and the cookie dough only covered half of the pan of brownies (I did cut mine a bit smaller than 2.5 inches, though). In the future I’ll definitely be making two batches of dough.
Super tasty. After I placed 2 scoops of cookie dough on the brownie, I used Saran Wrap to cover the brownie with the cookie dough.
Thanks for the recipe!
That way my hands didn’t get as messy from the cookie dough.
Fun and tasty!
Mine didn’t spread at all though. The first batch stayed in ball form. I squished the second batch, but they still weren’t as thin.
Still very good though!
For sticks of butter- salted or unsalted?
Thanks for this great recipe, two of my most favorite things (cookies and brownies) mixed together. When I do this, I would put chocolate syrup on top to give it a much more intense chocolate flavor.
Those have got to be one HUGE cookie. I need those for family movie night.
I made these and everyone loved them. Make sure to use this cookie recipe since it keeps its shape. I used my own recipe the first time I made these and it didn’t work out.

can i justbake on cookie sheet?
Mine didn’t flatten out like yours, they stayed thick and round….any thoughts as to why?
Hi Elizabeth,
Try pressing your cookies down half way before you bake them, this helps 🙂
I made these! and blogged them =] Check them out

I’ve made these brownie stuffed chocolate chip cookies twice now. It was easier the second time. I’m not sure how they turned out so flat for you. Do you squish them? Everyone who tries them either wants the recipe or wants me to make them more! I’ve been directing a lot of people to your blog. The funny thing is that I can’t eat chocolate, so my next batch will be with butterscotch brownies and chips instead of the chocolate. Thanks!
These were so easy to bake!
and so, so, so good
I just made these and mine turned out like baseballs. They are quite good and my husband says he will eat them all. Did you flatten yours before you put them in the oven?
I am drooling over all of your yummy cookie recipes! They look absolutely amazing. Looks like I’ll be baking this weekend. Thanks for the inspiration!

You’ve combined two of our favorite treats…genius! We’re featuring this post as today’s Link We Love. Check it out here: http://gooseberrypatch.typepad.com/blog/2011/03/lwl-picky-palate.html
Thanks so much! 🙂
Several of my friends linked to this post, I’m so glad they led me to your site. I just made these, following your recipe, but my edges didn’t stay sealed and your cookies look so much flatter than mine (my brownie was about 1 1/2 inches tall and it didn’t flatten any). Did you squish your brownie when you wrapped it?
These look amazing I’m going to have to give them a try (for college son of course)
I too stumbled upon your site and have enjoyed exploring it. I made these cookies and they were loved by all. Any ideas as to why mined stayed more domed instead of flattening like yours?
I can never get my cookies to look like yours! yours are so thin and spreadout.. mine stay in a mound shape. I’m nto sure why but i’ve been following your recipes to the T and i’ve tried making 4 batchs of cookies now oevr past few weeks and none of them look are yummmmyyy thin and spreadout like yours.. any thoughts on why mine are staying in a mound shape?
This looks absolutely sinful! I’m going to have to have to make these the next time we have home group!
YOWabunga!!! I made these tonight and they were crazy huge and good! thanks!!!!
WhAt?!?!?!?!??!?! This is insane!!!! I can’t believe this! I have never even thought of putting these delectable things together. But now that you have shown me….I’m making them tonight. Thanks in advance for the weight gain. 😉
Well, now, this is just genius. Absolutely amazing!

Holy Smokes — made these today, except I used my favorite homemade brownie recipe. They are huuuuge! And delish 🙂 We called them Brookies since they are brownies and cookies in one. Thanks for the recipe!
