Description

These Cosmic Brownie Cookies are a delightful twist on classic brownies, featuring a rich chocolate cookie base topped with a luscious ganache and colorful rainbow sprinkles. A perfect treat for chocolate lovers and anyone with a sweet tooth!


Ingredients

Cosmic Brownie Cookies:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1½ cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Ganache:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Topping:

  • Rainbow candy-coated chocolate chips or rainbow sprinkles


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven and prepare baking sheets: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the cookie dough: Cream butter and sugar, add eggs and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Combine wet and dry ingredients, then fold in chocolate chips.
  3. Bake the cookies: Scoop dough onto baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes until set. Cool on a wire rack.
  4. Make the ganache: Heat cream, pour over chocolate chips, stir until smooth.
  5. Assemble the cookies: Spread ganache on cooled cookies, top with rainbow chips or sprinkles. Allow ganache to set before serving.

Notes

  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
  • For a cleaner look, chill the ganache-topped cookies briefly before serving.
