For the Edible Cookie Dough:
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1¼ cups all-purpose flour (heat-treated for safety)
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
For the Chocolate Coating:
- 2 cups chocolate candy melts (dark, milk, or white chocolate)
- Sprinkles (optional, for decoration)
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Bake & Cool the Brownies
- Prepare the brownie mix according to the package instructions.
- Bake in a lined pan as directed, then let them cool completely.
- Once cooled, cut into small squares (about 1-inch pieces).
🔹 Pro Tip: Slightly underbake the brownies for an extra fudgy texture!
Step 2: Make the Edible Cookie Dough
- In a mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy.
- Mix in milk and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add heat-treated flour (microwave for 1 minute to kill bacteria) and stir until fully combined.
- Fold in mini chocolate chips.
🔹 Safety Note: Since this dough contains no eggs, it’s safe to eat raw!
Step 3: Assemble the Brownie Bombs
- Roll about 1 tablespoon of cookie dough into a ball.
- Flatten a brownie square and wrap it around the cookie dough ball, sealing completely.
- Repeat until all dough and brownie pieces are used.
🔹 Helpful Tip: If the brownie is too crumbly, slightly wet your hands to help shape it.
Step 4: Dip in Chocolate & Decorate
- Melt chocolate candy melts in the microwave (30-second intervals, stirring in between).
- Using a fork or dipping tool, coat each brownie bomb in chocolate, letting excess drip off.
- Place on a parchment-lined tray and immediately add sprinkles (if using).
- Chill in the fridge for 15-20 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
