These bite-sized treats are a fun and indulgent way to enjoy your favorite flavors in one mouthwatering bomb.

These Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs are made using a box of brownie mix and a homemade cookie dough filling, making the recipe both easy and delicious. The chocolate coating adds an extra layer of sweetness, turning these bombs into an irresistible dessert that’s perfect for any occasion. Here’s everything you need to know to make these brownie bombs.
Ingredients
For the brownie layer: 1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on the box)
For the cookie dough filling: 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened), 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons milk, 1 cup mini chocolate chips
For the chocolate coating: 8 oz chocolate candy coating
Instructions
To begin, preheat the oven according to the instructions on your brownie mix box, then prepare the brownie mix as directed, adding the required ingredients like eggs, water, and oil. Once the brownie batter is mixed, pour it into a greased or parchment-lined baking dish and bake according to the time specified on the box. After baking, allow the brownies to cool completely on a wire rack.
While the brownies are cooling, it’s time to make the cookie dough filling. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract and mix well. Gradually mix in the flour until combined, followed by the milk. Continue mixing until the dough forms, then stir in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Once the cookie dough is ready, roll it into small balls, about the size of a marble. Place the dough balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, then freeze the balls for 30 minutes to allow them to firm up. This step helps the dough hold its shape when wrapped in the brownie.
Once the brownies are completely cooled, cut them into small squares, about 1.5 to 2 inches in size. Flatten each brownie square using your hands or a rolling pin, then wrap the brownie around each chilled cookie dough ball, sealing the edges to form a ball-shaped bomb. Ensure the edges are sealed well so the cookie dough doesn’t leak out.
Next, melt the chocolate candy coating according to the package instructions. Once melted, dip each brownie bomb into the chocolate coating, ensuring that it’s fully covered. Place the dipped brownie bombs onto a parchment-lined baking sheet to set. Let the chocolate harden completely before serving.
Tips
For an even richer taste, you can add a dash of espresso powder to the brownie mix or cookie dough to enhance the chocolate flavor.
If you want to make these brownie bombs extra indulgent, try adding more mini chocolate chips or even some crushed nuts to the cookie dough.
If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought chocolate coating, or you can melt your favorite chocolate chips to use as a dip.
Serving Suggestions
These Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs are perfect for any occasion. Serve them as a dessert for a dinner party, a birthday treat, or just as a sweet snack when you need a chocolate fix. Pair them with a glass of milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate indulgence. They also make an excellent addition to a dessert table at a special event or holiday gathering.
Storage
To store these brownie bombs, keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. If you want to keep them for a longer period, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to a week. These brownie bombs can also be frozen for up to 3 months. Simply place them in a freezer-safe container or bag and thaw them at room temperature before serving.
FAQ
Can I use homemade brownie batter instead of a box mix?
Yes! If you prefer to make your own brownie batter, feel free to use your favorite homemade recipe instead of the boxed mix. Just ensure that the batter is thick enough to hold the cookie dough ball inside.
Can I use other types of chocolate for the coating?
Absolutely! You can use dark chocolate, milk chocolate, or even white chocolate for the coating. Just be sure to melt the chocolate carefully, and consider adding a bit of vegetable oil to thin it out for a smoother coating.
How do I prevent the cookie dough from melting during baking?
Freezing the cookie dough balls before wrapping them in brownies is key to keeping them intact. It helps them hold their shape inside the brownie bomb, even when baked.
