Chewy Brownie Cookies

When you crave brownies but don't want to wait until the brownie cools completely so you can cut it into squares and eat it, why not make some brownie cookies instead.

These Chewy Brownie Cookies are so delicious and taste just like a brownie but in a cookie form.  These cookies are thin, chewy and full of chocolate flavour.  They are so good that it's hard to stop at one.  But more importantly, you only have to wait two to three minutes for them to cool down before being able to consume a few at a time.

When I bake these again, I will add a bit more self-raising flour (maybe ¼ cup) to give the cookie more body. I will let you know how I go.

Chewy Brownie Cookies

Ingredients

· 40 grams butter
· 200 grams dark chocolate, finely chopped
· 2 eggs
· ⅔ cup caster sugar
· 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
· ¼ cup self-raising flour
· 1 teaspoon cocoa powder

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Line three trays with baking paper.

2. Place butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (make sure the bowl does not touch the water). Stir until completely melted, then set aside.

3. Add eggs, sugar and vanilla extract in a bowl and using an electric beater beat the mixture for 10 minutes or until thick and creamy.

4. Fold in sifted flour and then chocolate mixture and allow it to stand for 10 minutes.

5. Place mixture into a piping bag or snap-lock bag. Pipe 4 cm round circles on the baking trays. Allow about 5 cm between each cookie.

6. Bake in oven for 8 minutes or until puffed and beginning to crack. Allow the cookies to cool on baking trays.

Tips

· You can also just spoon the cookie dough mixture onto the baking trays without a piping bag. Just try to make them as even in shape as possible.
