Indulge in the perfect marriage of rich brownie and luscious cookie dough with these Brownie Cookie Dough Cups topped with a decadent caramel drizzle. These delightful treats combine fudgy brownie cups filled with homemade chocolate chip cookie dough and finished with a warm caramel sauce for an irresistible dessert experience.


Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Cup

  • 1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients required on the box)

Cookie Dough Filling

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Caramel Drizzle

  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce (for drizzling)


Instructions

  1. Prepare Brownie Cups: Preheat your oven according to the brownie mix package instructions. Prepare the brownie batter as directed on the box. Grease a muffin tin and fill each cup about halfway with the batter. Bake according to the package directions, usually around 20 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
  2. Make Cookie Dough Filling: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy. Stir in the all-purpose flour, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined. Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips to incorporate them evenly into the dough.
  3. Assemble Cups: Once the brownie cups have cooled completely, use a spoon to carefully create a small indent in the center of each brownie cup. Spoon a generous scoop of the prepared cookie dough into each indent, filling the center neatly without overflowing.
  4. Drizzle Caramel: Warm the caramel sauce slightly, either in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds or over low heat on the stove, to make it pourable but not hot. Drizzle the warm caramel sauce over the filled brownie cookie dough cups, adding a lovely sweet finish.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Your Brownie Cookie Dough Cups with Caramel Drizzle are ready to enjoy. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for a chilled dessert treat.

Notes

  • Ensure the brownie cups are completely cooled before adding the cookie dough to prevent melting.
  • If you prefer, you can use store-bought edible cookie dough for convenience.
  • Use mini chocolate chips for better distribution in the cookie dough.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For a richer caramel drizzle, warm slightly but avoid overheating to keep the sauce smooth.
