I love using cake mixes to make different recipes like cake mix brownies, cake mix cookie bars, and cake mix waffles but today I am using a brownie mix to make cookies.

Why you’ll love Cookies from Brownie Mix

• Can be made fast and only 4 ingredients needed.
• Fudgy, chewy cookies rich in chocolate flavor.
• Easy to customize with different add-in ingredients.

Brownie Cookies from box Ingredients

• Box brownie mix – I use Ghirardelli double chocolate mix and have also used Pillsbury brownie mix. I would recommend not using Betty Crocker for this recipe since it doesn’t contain baking soda and could cause the cookies to flatten.
• Vegetable or canola oil – Either of these work well. You can also use coconut oil.
• Eggs – Two eggs are needed for this recipe.
• All-purpose flour – Just a little flour is needed for these cookies.

Brownie Cookies from Mix Variations

These chocolate crackle brownie cookies are perfect to mix in other ingredients. I recommend adding in 1/2-3/4 cup of the ingredient you choose. Here are a few suggestions:

• Chocolate chips or chunks
• Peanut butter chips
• Toffee bits
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• Sprinkles
• Chopped nuts
• Sprinkle the top with sea salt

Brownie Mix Cookies Recipe Tips

• There are several brands of brownie mix on the grocery shelves and each is a little different in size. I have made this with Ghriardelli and Pillsbury.
• Betty Crocker mix doesn’t contain baking soda so it might make the cookies flat. If you decide to use this brand, try adding 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to help keep them from flattening.
• Line the baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
• For uniform sized cookies, try using a cookie scoop.
• Don’t over bake these cookies. Once they cool they will be perfect on the inside. 8-9 minutes seems to be the perfect cook time.

How to store Brownie Mix Cookies

Store: Place the chocolate cookies in an airtight container and leave out at room temperature. They will last about 5 days.

Freeze: They can be frozen. Let them completely cool and then place in freezer safe bag, making sure to remove any excess air. Freeze up to 3 months. Let thaw in the refrigerator.
