Step-By-Step Process To Make Brownie Cookie Sandwich Recipe

Melt The Chocolate

To create a double boiler, fill a small pot with a few inches of water and heat it until it starts to simmer, which means small bubbles are forming but the water isn’t boiling vigorously.  Next, take a heat-safe bowl & place it on top of the pot, making sure it doesn’t touch the water below. 

Then add 8 tablespoons of unsalted butter and 9 ounces of bittersweet chocolate chips in the bowl carefully. And stir continues until they melt completely. Take the bowl off the heat and let it sit for a few minutes. This will help keep the eggs from cooking any further.

Blend Other Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, crack 3 large eggs and add 3/4 cup of granulated sugar and 1/2 cup of packed light brown sugar to the eggs. Use a beater or mixer to mix them well. After mixing for 2-3 minutes, it will become light and fluffy. Mixing adds air to the egg and sugar, making the delicious chocolate cookies very soft. 

When this texture is ready, add it to the cooled melted chocolate mixture and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix well so everything combines, but be careful not to overmix.

Combine Dry Ingredients

Take another separate bowl and add all the dry ingredients, which include:  

  • 1 cup of all-purpose flour,  
  • 3/4 cup of bread flour,  
  • 1/4 cup of Dutch-process cocoa powder,  
  • 1 teaspoon of baking powder,  
  • 3/4 teaspoon of salt,  
  • 1 teaspoon of baking soda.  

Use a whisk to blend all the dry ingredients together. This will help combine the baking soda and baking powder well. This step is very important because it helps the cookies rise nicely.

Combine Dry & Wet Ingredients

It’s time to blend the wet and dry mixtures. Mix the bowl of wet ingredients with the bowl of dry ingredients, then add slowly. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ones using a spatula or wooden spoon. 

You don’t want to overmix, so you only want to stir until combined. On the plus side, if there are a few small lumps, you didn’t overmix, which can make your cookies tough rather than soft.

Chill The Dough

After the dough is mixed, cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap. It’s important that you chill the dough since this will make it firm up and easier to scoop later. Covered bowl, place in fridge and chill for about 30 minutes. During waiting time, you can preheat your oven or clear up your table space.

Cookie Baking Procedure

  1. Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow the dough to chill until cold. Lining your baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat so your cookies don’t stick will help you prepare. 
  2. Add chunks of chilled dough onto the baking sheets using a cookie scoop or spoon. Leave some room between each cookie (about an inch or so) because they will spread as you bake them. Heat oven to about 10-12 minutes. Sets should also appear on the edges, but the centers can still be slightly gooey. 
  3. It is that which gives the cookies their wonderful fudgy texture. Once they’re finished baking, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. 
  4. Once that’s done, transfer them very carefully to a wire rack to cool completely. The cooling is key so the cookies can firm up and mature into their deep flavor.

Does Brownie Cookie Sandwich Contain Calories?

Of course, brownie cookie sandwiches have calories. Depending on what brand of recipe or ingredients you use, the calorie content can vary. 

  • For example, brownie cookie sandwich cookies will typically have about 150 to 200 calories per cookie per serving, based on the size and filling. 

Butter, sugar, and chocolate also play a large role in the calorie count. Fillings (such as buttercream or cream cheese frosting) can add more calories. Thus, if you are eating brownie cookie sandwiches, knowing how many calories they have is important as part of your whole diet.

How to Store a Brownie Cookie Sandwich?

You can store it in three ways. You can keep it at room temperature, but it’s important to wrap it well to maintain moisture. 

  • Room Temperature Storage Duration: 3 days

If you want to keep it frosty, you can refrigerate it. If you want to store it for the long term, you can freeze it.

  • Freezer Storage Duration: 2-3 months

Final Recommendation

These brownie cookie sandwiches combine chewy cookies and fudgy brownies deliciously. You can make some of them with cookie dough buttercream, cream cheese frosting, salted caramel cream, etc. 

Baking until edges are set & centers are gooey, chilling the dough before baking, & improving the flavor and texture are all increases that contribute to the ideal consistency. These cakes are indulgent and high in calories, but you can afford to eat them if taken in moderation.
