Chewy, fudgy Christmas Brownie Cookies that blend the rich decadence of brownies with the festive charm of holiday cookies—easy, indulgent, and ready in under 90 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup melted unsalted butter
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup cocoa powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until glossy. Add vanilla and beat in eggs one at a time.
  3. Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl, then fold into wet mixture.
  4. Fold in chocolate chips and nuts. Scoop dough onto baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
  5. Bake 10–12 minutes until edges are set and centers remain soft. Cool 5 minutes before transferring.
  6. Drizzle melted chocolate and add festive decorations if desired.

Notes
