Cost: Recipe $2.34 / Serving $0.16
Ingredients
- 1 box (18.3 ounces) brownie mix ($1.38)
- 2 large eggs ($0.30)
- ⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted ($0.66)
- 1 tablespoon water, optional and as needed ($0.00)
Instructions
- Mix. In a medium bowl, stir together the brownie mix, eggs, and melted butter until fully combined. Add water only if the dough is too thick.
- Chill. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.
- Prep. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Portion. Scoop dough into 1 ½ to 2 tablespoon portions and place on the prepared baking sheet, spacing cookies about 2 inches apart.
- Bake. Bake for 10 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers remain soft.
- Cool. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Dough consistency. If the dough is too thick, add water 1 tablespoon at a time until scoopable.
- Chilling matters. Cold dough limits spread and helps create a soft, gooey center.
- Butter tip. Melt butter gently and let it cool slightly before mixing to avoid greasy dough.
- Variations. Stir in chocolate chips or swap part of the butter for melted shortening for a different texture.
- Storage. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 to 5 days. Best within 2 days.
