Ingredients

• 1 cup Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (Substitute with vegan chocolate chips for a dairy-free version)
• 1/2 cup Butter (Unsalted preferred)
• 3/4 cup Brown Sugar (Coconut sugar can be used as an alternative)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (Pure vanilla extract is preferred)
• 2 tablespoons Milk (Almond milk works as a dairy-free alternative)

Instructions

2. Step 2: Scoop out the cookie dough and roll it into small balls about 1 inch in diameter. Place each ball on a lined baking sheet.
3. Step 3: In a separate bowl, prepare the brownie batter according to the package instructions or your favorite homemade recipe.

Tips & Variations

• For a dairy-free version, use vegan chocolate chips, dairy-free butter, and almond milk in the cookie dough and brownie batter.
• Try rolling the brownie-coated bombs in chopped nuts or shredded coconut before chilling for added texture.
• If you want extra gooey centers, chill the cookie dough balls for 10 minutes before dipping them in the brownie batter.

Storage

Store the brownie bombs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To enjoy them soft, allow them to sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before serving. They can also be frozen for up to 2 months; thaw overnight in the fridge before eating.

FAQs

Can I use store-bought cookie dough for this recipe?

Yes, store-bought cookie dough works well. Just make sure it is safe to eat raw if you prefer not to cook it prior to use.

Can I bake these brownie bombs instead of chilling them?

These are designed as no-bake treats, but if you want to bake them, it may affect the texture and cause the cookie dough to melt inside. Chilling is recommended for the best results.

Cookie Dough

• 1 cup Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (Substitute with vegan chocolate chips for a dairy-free version)
• 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
• 3/4 cup Brown Sugar (or coconut sugar as alternative)
• 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
• 2 tablespoons Milk (Almond milk as dairy-free alternative)

Brownie Batter

• 1 batch Brownie Batter (Use gluten-free brownie mix if desired)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Cookie Dough: In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly combine the cookie dough ingredients until the dough is soft, pliable, and fully incorporated, ensuring an even texture.
2. Shape the Cookie Dough: Using a scoop or spoon, roll the cookie dough into 1-inch diameter balls. Place each ball evenly spaced on a lined baking sheet to prevent sticking.
3. Make the Brownie Batter: In a separate bowl, prepare the brownie batter according to the package directions or your chosen homemade recipe to ensure the correct consistency for coating.
4. Coat Cookie Dough Balls: Dip each cookie dough ball completely into the brownie batter, making sure they are fully covered. Carefully place the coated balls back onto the lined baking sheet.
5. Chill: Refrigerate the brownie-coated cookie dough balls for at least 30 minutes, allowing the batter to set firmly. Once chilled, they are ready to serve for a decadent no-bake dessert.

Notes

• For a dairy-free version, substitute butter with vegan butter, milk with almond milk, and use vegan chocolate chips.
• Use a gluten-free brownie mix to accommodate gluten sensitivities.
• Keep the cookie dough chilled before shaping if the dough becomes too sticky to handle.
• Ensure the brownie batter is not too thin to prevent dripping off the cookie dough balls.
• Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to keep the texture intact.
