Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bites

July 31, 2026

Instructions

 

  1. Preheat your oven to the temperature listed on your brownie mix box. Prepare a mini muffin tin by greasing it or lining with paper liners.
  2. Mix and bake the brownie mix according to package directions. Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full and bake until set. Let cool completely before topping.
  3. In a mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Mix in the milk and vanilla extract.
  5. Add heat-treated flour and salt; mix until smooth.
  6. Stir in the mini chocolate chips.
  7. Scoop a rounded teaspoon of cookie dough and press gently on top of each cooled brownie bite.
  8. Chill for 15–20 minutes or enjoy immediately!

Troubleshooting & Consistency Tips

  • Too soft? Chill the cookie dough topping longer for a firmer bite.
  • Brownie sticking? Let them cool fully and use non-stick spray or liners.
  • Too sweet? Use dark chocolate chips to balance flavor.

Storage & Make-Ahead

  • Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  • Freezer: Freeze assembled bites for up to 2 months; thaw before serving.
  • Make-Ahead: You can bake the brownie base a day ahead and top with cookie dough later.
