Last night, I was really craving something chocolately, but I didn’t feel like running to the store to grab something. I found a site, SuperCook, that lets you plug in the ingredients you have on hand, and it returns a list of everything you can make with those ingredients. I had cocoa powder, flour, sugar, and eggs, but since I’m not exactly much of a creative cook, I had no idea what I could do with them. One of the recipes that came up was from for Chocolate Brownie Cookies from RecipeZaar. I changed it a bit to make it a little sweeter, and I’m actually pretty proud that my slight modifications went over well, considering I’ve never improvised much before on a recipe.

Yum! They look so good, and I love how they are a cookie with brownie flavor. That would make it convenient to take for lunch or a potluck (no cutting, spatulas, etc.)

These look delicious! Is there anything I can substitute the cocoa for? That’s one thing I never seem to have on hand…otherwise I’ll just have to pick some up so I can try the recipe!

Oddly enough, I started my search with just cocoa powder, since that was the one thing I knew I did have on hand! Not sure what else you could sub with. They’re definitely worth trying though, so grab some cocoa powder when you’re out!
Oh my goodness…YUM!! Just pinned this on my Board of Must Trys!
I love these delicious brownie cookies. Thanks for sharing the recipe. I will try to make this one. This is my next prospect recipe to make.
