These Chocolate Brownie Bombs are perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth and impressing your guests at any gathering. Let’s get started!
Ingredients
Before we begin, let’s gather all the ingredients needed for these delightful bombs of chocolate goodness:
- ¾ cup butter, softened
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- Pinch of salt
- 2 cups miniature chocolate chips, divided
- 1 package fudge brownie mix, baked and cooled
- 1 package chocolate almond bark
Instructions
Step 1: Cream Butter and Sugars
In a stand mixer, beat together the softened butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Mix in the milk and vanilla extract until well blended. This creates a creamy and flavorful base for our cookie dough.
Step 2: Prepare the Dough
Gradually add the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt to the mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms. Stir in 1 cup of miniature chocolate chips until evenly distributed. This step is crucial for achieving the perfect cookie dough consistency.
Step 3: Form Dough Balls
On a foil-lined baking sheet, shape scant tablespoon-sized balls of cookie dough. Freeze the dough balls for 1 hour. This ensures the dough is firm enough to wrap in the next step.
Step 4: Wrap the Brownie
Cut the cooled brownies into 1-inch squares. Flatten each square and place a frozen dough ball in the center. Wrap the brownie around the dough, forming a ball. Freeze the wrapped balls for an additional 30 minutes. This step adds an extra layer of decadence to each bite.
Step 5: Dip in Chocolate
Melt the chocolate almond bark according to package instructions. Dip each brownie bomb into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off. Place the dipped bombs on foil and sprinkle with the remaining miniature chocolate chips. The melted chocolate coating adds a delightful crunch.
Step 6: Chill
Chill the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs until the chocolate coating is set. This final step ensures that the bombs are ready to be enjoyed at their best.
