Ingredients

Scale

For the Brownie Cookies:

  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)

For the Cookie Dough Filling:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper to ensure cookies bake evenly and do not stick.
  2. Prepare Brownie Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat together melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and granulated sugar until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips if using, evenly distributing them throughout the batter.
  4. Scoop Cookies: Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop rounded spoonfuls of brownie batter onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing each about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
  5. Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the edges are set but the centers remain slightly soft. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. Make Cookie Dough Filling: In a clean bowl, cream the softened butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until fluffy. Mix in vanilla extract. Gradually incorporate the flour and salt until combined, then fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Assemble Cookies: Once brownie cookies are fully cooled, spread a generous layer of the cookie dough filling on the flat side of one cookie. Top with another brownie cookie, pressing gently to form a sandwich.
  8. Repeat: Continue assembling sandwiches with remaining cookies and filling until all are filled.
  9. Chill (optional): For a firmer filling texture, refrigerate the assembled sandwich cookies for about 30 minutes before serving.
  10. Serve and Enjoy: Present your delicious Brownie Cookie Dough Sandwich Cookies and enjoy each rich, indulgent bite.

Notes

  • Use high-quality cocoa powder and chocolate chips for best flavor.
  • Ensure brownie cookies are completely cooled before adding cookie dough filling to prevent melting.
  • Experiment by adding a pinch of espresso powder or cinnamon to the brownie batter for a unique flavor boost.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or refrigerate for extended freshness.
  • These cookies make an excellent party treat or dessert for holiday gatherings.
