Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chocolate for melting
Instructions
- Prepare brownie mix according to box instructions in a 9x9 inch pan. Bake and allow to cool completely at room temperature.
- While brownies are cooling, create cookie dough by creaming softened butter with brown and granulated sugars in a medium mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
- Mix in vanilla extract, then gradually add flour until a soft dough forms. Fold in chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
- Once brownies are completely cooled, cut into 12 equal squares. Remove each square carefully from the pan.
- Take a small portion of cookie dough and flatten it into a thin disc. Wrap each brownie square completely with the cookie dough, ensuring no brownie is exposed.
- Place cookie dough-wrapped brownie squares on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 15-20 minutes to firm up.
- Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth and fully melted.
- Remove frozen brownie bombs from freezer and dip each one completely in melted chocolate, using a fork to drain excess chocolate.
- Place chocolate-coated bombs back on parchment paper and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes until chocolate sets completely.
- Store bombs in an airtight container in refrigerator for up to 5 days. Allow to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving for best texture.
Tips
- Ensure brownies are completely cooled before wrapping to prevent the cookie dough from melting.
- Use cold hands or lightly butter your palms when shaping cookie dough to prevent sticking.
- Freeze the wrapped brownie bombs before chocolate coating to help them hold their shape.
- Use high-quality chocolate for melting to get a smooth, glossy finish.
- Work quickly when dipping in chocolate to prevent the bombs from warming up.
- For clean, professional-looking bombs, use a dipping fork or chocolate dipping tool.
- If chocolate starts to harden during dipping, briefly reheat in microwave.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and texture.
- For best flavor and texture, let bombs sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
- Experiment with different chocolate chip varieties or add a sprinkle of sea salt for extra flavor complexity.
