Cookies Made From Brownie Mix

– 1 box of brownie mix

– 1/4 cup of vegetable oil 

– 2 eggs 

– 1/2 cup of chocolate chips 

– 1/4 cup of chopped nuts (optional) 

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix until well combined.

3. Fold in the chocolate chips and nuts, if using.

4. Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.

5. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.

6. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

– You can customize these cookies by adding different mix-ins, such as dried fruit or additional chocolate chips.

– Be careful not to overbake the cookies, as they will continue to cook slightly once removed from the oven.

 Tips for Making Cookies from Brownie Mix

1. Use Less Liquid
   Brownie mix is meant to be pourable for pans, so to turn it into cookie dough, use less water or oil than the box calls for. Example:

   • 1 box brownie mix

   • 1 egg (instead of 2)

   • 1/4 cup oil

   • No water (or just 1 tbsp if needed)

2. Chill the Dough
   Let the dough chill for 15–30 minutes before baking. This helps prevent spreading and gives thicker, chewier cookies.

3. Add Mix-Ins
   Elevate the flavor and texture with:

   • Chocolate chips or chunks

   • Nuts (walnuts or pecans work great)

   • M&Ms, peanut butter chips, or toffee bits

4. Watch the Bake Time
   Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8–10 minutes. Don’t overbake! They’ll set more as they cool.

5. Use a Cookie Scoop
   For even cookies that bake uniformly, scoop dough into balls before baking.

6. Customize the Texture

   • For chewy cookies: Use more brown sugar or a bit of honey/maple syrup.

   • For cakey cookies: Add an extra egg white.
