Ingredients

• 1 box (about 18–20 oz / 500–550 g) brownie mix
• 2 large eggs
• 1/3 cup (80 ml) vegetable oil

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, and vegetable oil.

Stir with a spoon or spatula until a thick, glossy dough forms and all dry mix is incorporated.

3. Scoop heaping tablespoonfuls of dough and roll into balls.

Place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.

4. For extra crinkle tops, gently press the tops of the dough balls with your fingers or the back of a spoon.

5. Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft.

6. Remove from oven and let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

Beachten Sie beim Backen, dass die Mitte der Kekse leicht weich bleiben sollte, um die typische fudgy Textur zu erhalten. Verwenden Sie Backpapier oder Silikonmatten, um ein Ankleben zu vermeiden und die Reinigung zu erleichtern. Für besonders gleichmäßige Kekse können Sie den Teig vor dem Backen besonders sorgsam portionieren.

Varianten und Anpassungen

Für noch reichhaltigere Cookies können Sie vor dem Backen 1/2 Tasse (90 g) Schokoladenstückchen oder gehackte Nüsse unter den Teig mischen. Eine Prise Meersalz auf die Kugeln vor dem Backen gibt eine besondere Gourmet-Note. Statt Pflanzenöl kann auch geschmolzenes Kokosöl verwendet werden, das einen subtilen Geschmack verleiht.

Serviervorschläge

Servieren Sie diese browniesartigen Cookies warm mit einer Kugel Vanilleeis oder einem Glas kalter Milch für ein klassisches und befriedigendes Dessert. Sie passen auch hervorragend zu Kaffee oder heißen Kakao als süßer Snack zwischendurch.
