RECIPE NOTES AND HELPFUL TIPS:
Make sure you give the egg and sugar a good whisk, you can use a hand mixer for around 5 minutes.
To ensure your cookies get that glossy, crackly top signature brownie finish, it’s best to pop the brownie cookies in the oven as soon as you make the dough.
Use high quality chocolate.
Use room temp ingredients.
Do NOT over bake them.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQs):
1. What sets Fudgy Brownie Cookies apart from traditional cookies?
Fudgy Brownie Cookies offer the best of both worlds—intense chocolate flavor, a soft and chewy texture, and a delightful crispy/crunchy outer shell. They’re a unique and irresistible twist on classic cookies.
2. How fudgy are these cookies, really?
These cookies are SUPER FUDGY! The texture is rich, dense, and indulgent, providing a decadent experience with every bite.
3. Can I adjust the level of fudginess in the cookies?
Absolutely! You can tailor the fudginess by adjusting the baking time. A shorter time results in a gooier center, while a bit more time in the oven gives you a perfect balance of fudginess and a crispy outer layer.
4. Do I need any special ingredients to make these cookies?
The ingredients are simple and likely in your pantry—flour, cocoa powder, butter, sugar, eggs, and chocolate chips. The magic lies in the proportions and the method, creating an extraordinary treat without any exotic ingredients.
5. How do I keep the cookies fresh and fudgy for longer?
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature. If you want to maintain their fudgy texture, consider placing a slice of bread in the container; it helps retain moisture and prevents them from drying out.
6. Can I freeze Fudgy Brownie Cookies for later?
Absolutely! Allow them to cool completely, then store in an airtight container with layers separated by parchment paper. They should stay delicious for up to three months. Thaw at room temperature when ready to enjoy.
