I wonder how you would make these vegan…

”

- Paige

”

- accountantsleeds

“

These sound absolutely amazing, but when it says 1 stick of butter how many grams does it mean? Thank you Carri!!!

”

- Taylor Southall

“

I reckon these cakes are amazing as I have made them before, but I have forgotten how many grams a stick of butter is. I love anybody who loves these cakes so spread the word, as these cakes have not been given the credit they deserve. So thank all of you people who spend the time to read other people’s and comment on others!!!

”

- Taylor Southall

“

OMG they look delicious! I’m a big chocolate fan so I love making new things with chocolate and these look particularly melt in the mouth!

”

“

Hello, What is a stick of butter please? Sorry I’m English!!

”

- Sophie

“

I can’t wait to try this!

”

- Melanie

“

Thank you to everyone who commented on these! I hope those of you that try them really enjoy them!
Taylor and Sophie: A stick of butter = 8 tablespoons or 1/2 cup or 113 grams. Hope that helps! :)
Zsa zsa: You can use the photo as long as you credit my blog and link back to me. Thanks!

Those cookies look fabulous! I was practically licking the screen. I hear that’s not good for the screen, so maybe I’d better just make them.

”

- plainjane

“

Just made these… delicious! My family loves them! I needed to use a bit extra water 5 tablespoons otherwise the batter was too dry but they they came out perfectly. I also cooked them for 11 minutes… Love this! Thanks for the recipe!

”

- Jean

“

Man, You are gonna make me fat whenever I make these and eat the whole batch. LOL

”

- Stephen Ackart

“

how can these be made completely from scratch (i.e., sans brownie mix)? I would love to make this.

”

- Memoria

“

Memoria: I am not entirely sure because I have never tried to make them without the brownie mix. I might have to do some experimenting!

”

- Deseree

“

OMG!!! These look sooo good!!! I’m making these tomorrow, I can’t wait!!!

”

- Beverly

“

These are seriously sinful looking. YUM.

”

- Amy Kelly

“

Looks Wonderful!

”

- Cheryl Plunkett

“

hey deseree, i checked out some brownie cookie recipes on other websites. i realized you added more sugar, and you used flour, i was wondering if this didn’t make the recipe too sweet? when you figure out how to get the same results from scratch can you post it. i have been looking for one and can’t seem to find it. by the way your cookies look really good, the best i have seen so far!

”

- belle

“

Made this the other day and it was amazing! Everybody loved it, even my uncle who doesn’t really like sweets loved it! Thanks!

”

- Beedyflucus

“

hey belle, I didn’t find that these were overly sweet and I am actually not (gasp!) a huge sweets fan. I’ll work on the recipe from scratch and if I come up with one that works I’ll be sure and share it with you all. :)
Beedyflucus: Thanks for the feedback! I am glad that you enjoyed them! :)

”

- Deseree

“

Des, I came upon your site on stumbleupon. It’s really delightful and always brightens my day. Your husband takes beautiful photos of your wonderful creations. Keep doing what you are!

”

- Dore

“

CAN’T wait to try this, LITERALLY, what happens if i skip the 2 hours refrigeration?

”

- terry

“

haha well I skipped the refrigeration once and found that they were pretty hard to work with, they got really soft and sticky so they didn’t form or bake well. If you can’t wait, you can take them out a bit early, maybe after 1 hour, and I think it might be ok. Hope you enjoy them! :)

”

- Deseree

“

hey deseree, you made me laugh when you said you are not a sweets fan…lol. but, i have another question for you, there are 2 sizes of brownie mix at my grocery store. i used the bigger one, but i was wondering if i use the smaller one with the exact same ingredients if i would get the same results….i guess what i am really asking is….does the size pack of the brownie mix that i buy matter? do i have to adjust ingredients to suit?

”

- belle

“

Hey Belle, I think that if you did buy the smaller size package of brownie mix you would want to adjust the other ingredients to suit the change so that you can get the same results. What was the size that you originally used? I used a box of Duncan Hines brownie mix so it was a 19-20 ounce package.

”

- Deseree

“

the size i used was about that, i think it was 18.7 ounces if i remember correctly….. but the brand i used was betty crocker, i remember picking up the 2 sizes in the grocery. i didn’t know which one to get so i just opted for the bigger one. but the other one was a 11-13 ounce i believe…..but i’m not sure, i can’t remember…. next time i go to the grocery i’ll make a note of it and write you.

”

- belle

“

I’m making these right now! The dough has just gone into the refrigerator… The batter is incredibly awesome, so I can only imagine how the cookies will taste! And those are beautiful pictures… They make my mouth water every time I see it…

”

- Brittany

“

OK I just got to taste one………….. I am out of millk, which is a bummer, but WOW that is tasty! I convinced my mom to make them just by her seeing the pictures! I am glad I used the Duncan Hines Chocolate Lovers Brownie mix, which has the double fudge with the fudge packet… I mixed that in as well, and wow… I will never make another cookie recipe again.

”

- Brittany

“

Thank you Brittany! I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed them this much. I think the fudge packet addition would be delicious! I hope your mom enjoys them just as much :)

”

- Deseree

“

I just finished making these and tasted one right out of the oven,with a mug of milk.
they are wonderful,such a simple recipe even i could make them well!
im going to share them with everybody.

”

- Joseph

“

hey deseree,
girl, i baked those cookies over the weekend.i had some friends over with their families. i think the mistake i made was breaking a cookie in pieces and giving everyone to taste. 2 of the boys that were there raided the tray. 1 of the families took home the rest. i only got one. the next time i bake them i need to make sure that i don’t have company. i went back to the grocery store, the other size they have is an 11 ounce, so….i don’t know what the adjustment would be for that but i don’t think the smaller size would work in my house, the recipe is too popular.

”

- belle

“

Hey belle, I’ve made that mistake before too, always gotta hide some for yourself! ;-) I am happy to hear that your family and your company enjoyed these.

”

- Deseree

“

I made these today–absolutely wonderful. Instead of adding chocolate chunks I used ghirardelli brownie mix, which contains an abundance of chocolate chips in it–worked really well. Great recipe, will definitely end up making them again.

”

- Kate

“

Thank you Kate! I love Ghirardelli chocolate so that sounds like a perfect substitution. :)

”

- Deseree

“

Wow, the middle looks fantastic, thanks for sharing!

”

- Lou

“

These cookies are amazing! I have a new favorite cookie among my family, and as the family cookie master I say these cookies are among the best and the simplest I have ever made!! Thank you so much!

”

- Maegen

“

You’re welcome Maegen! Thank you for the nice comments about these cookies, I am glad you and your family liked them so much.

”

- Deseree

“

Deseree, I’ve made these a few times and my family and I really love them. The only thing is that they never quite come out as thick as they do in the picture, but rather flat and soupy when I take them out of the oven. I follow all the directions, but use a different brand of brownie mix. Could this be the problem? Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

”

- Erin

“

Erin, I’m glad you and your family love them but am sorry to hear that you’ve had problems with them being too flat. I am not sure that using a different brand of brownie mix would cause the problem as a few other people have left comments saying that they used other mixes and didn’t have a problem. One thought may be that the batter is getting to warm, make sure it stays cold. I would try putting the bowl in the fridge while you are baking the batches. I would also wait for your cookie sheet to cool down, if it is too warm the batter will spread. Also over working it could cause this problem. Also if you’re at a high altitude you’d have to adjust for that. I hope this helps!

”

- Deseree

“

I made these and they were quite amazing, but I also improved them a little bit (I think) by replacing the two tablespoons of water with and equal amount of strong coffee (cooled). It adds an awesome extra taste to the cookie and makes it even more irresistable. Thanks for the awesome recipe Deseree

”

- Josh

“

You’re welcome Josh! A bit of coffee sounds like a great addition :)

”

- Deseree

“

Hello Deseree! Thanks so much for this recipe – I tried them with peanut butter chips intead of the dark chocolate chunks and they’re delicious!

”

- Christine

“

You’re welcome Christine! I will definitely have to try adding peanut butter chips next time, there is nothing quite like the combination of chocolate and peanut butter. Thanks for the tip!

”

- Deseree

“

wow, these look sooo yummy!!!! i’m gonna make loads today….mum couldn’t say no so obviously she thought it looked yummy too!!!! XD
I love brownies and cookies and i love brownie cookies and now they come fudgy, HURRAY!!!!!! LOL

”

- Sheelah

“

Haha Sheelah! I hope you enjoy them :)

”

- Deseree

“

I thought this was a great recipe for my daughter to try making cookies for the first time. She had so much fun…and was only mildly annoyed at me for taking pictures. :) Thanks for the recipe!!

”

- Suzanne

“

I made these and they came out like little cakes. I threw them out :[ They looked so good im not sure what I did wrong.

”

- D:

“

D: I am sorry to hear that. I was wondering what exactly do you mean they came out like little cakes? Were they too puffy? Too dry? Not fudgy? If I know I might be able to make some better suggestions. My first thought when you said “cakes” was about the butter you used. Did you use real butter? Thanks!

”

- Deseree

“

You’re welcome Suzanne! I am happy that you and your daughter had a fun time making these! :)

”

Hi,

These cookies look awesome! I am wondering if anyone has ever put them in the freezer; would that mess with the texture??

”

- denise

“

Hi Denise! Thanks! I have not personally put this cookie dough before in the freezer, but since it is a heavy dough, as opposed to one made with egg whites, it should freeze quite well. Just make sure to protect the dough with a couple of layers of plastic wrap and allow plenty of time to thaw before cooking and cook within 4-6 weeks.
I would also think that freezing the cookies after you bake them would not really mess with the texture, but again I have not done it personally.
Hope this helps!

”

- Deseree

“

I’m baking for my son, Joseph’s class Christmas party.They’re going to gobble these delicious cookies right up. Thanks a million!

”

- SUZIE1239

- chanda

“

Chanda- I love that you tried this gluten free and from scratch! I’ve had a couple people ask me about that so hopefully they will contact you to get the recipe :)

”

- Deseree

“

I was wondering how to get the gluten free version of this that Chanda made. I don’t know how to contact her to get the recipe. My kids would love to be able to eat this.

- monika

“

What heavenly little treats these are! A chocoholic’s dream.

”

- Reeni

“

Wonderful! I just made these and they are soooo good! I used Pillsbury Milk Chocolate Brownie mix and milk chocolate chunks so thatthe cooies didn’t come out too rich for the kids and they are excellent!

”

- Nicola

“

how can I get the gluten free version? I don’t know how to contect her. My son would love to eat this.

Love these cookies!

“

WOW theses are GREAT!!! I made them around the holidays & the family keeps requesting them!

”

- Alyson

“

I love making these cookies! They are my family’s favorite cookies. They are delicious, fudgy, chocolately and just all around wonderful. I use the brownie mix that has chocolate chunks in it and them don’t add chocolate chips and they turn out perfectly.
