Tips For Making This Cookie Recipe
This recipe is easy to make, and these tips will make it even easier.
- Don’t overbake the cookies. The cookies should still be soft and wet in the centre when removed from the oven. They will continue to bake as they cool. If they are overbaked, they will become very hard as they cool.
- To get evenly sized cookies, we use a cookie scoop. Usually, we use a small scoop, and that gives us about 24 cookies. We make larger cookies using a medium scoop for making ice cream sandwiches.
- Allow the cookies to cool for 1 minute on the pan before transferring to the cooling rack to finish cooling.
- The addition of the coffee granules enhances the chocolate flavours. It can be skipped if you don’t have them on hand.
Ways to Serve Brownie Cookies
These cookies are great on their own with a glass of milk or a cup of tea or coffee.
In the summer, we like to turn these into ice cream sandwiches by adding vanilla ice cream between two cookies.
Storing Brownie Cookies
Once cooled, these cookies should be stored in an airtight container at room temperature. They will stay fresh for up to one week. They can also be frozen for up to three months.
