These Chocolate Crinkle Brownie Cookies are going to be great for a Christmas Cookie or a favorite all year round. They are soft, chewy, and fudgy just like a brownie. You can make them with your favorite brownie mix.

With the holidays around the corner, I knew I needed to share another cookie recipe with you. Last week, I shared our Maraschino Cherry Kiss Cookies and many of you have written letting me know that you plan to add them to your holiday baking lists. We make these Chocolate Crinkle Brownie Cookies just about every year for Christmas.
You will find these cookies have a slight crunch on the outside and just like a brownie on the inside. PERFECT… Just add a tall glass of milk to enjoy!
Chocolate Crinkle Brownie Cookies are a super easy cookie that I can make with little effort. Simple cookies are a blessing. This recipe is so simple, I can even have my teens make them. We start with a fudge brownie mix, toss in some chocolate chips and a few other ingredients, then roll them in powdered sugar.
INGREDIENTS
1 box Fudge Brownie mix (18.3 oz)
1 1/4 cup Flour
3 Eggs
1 tbsp Water
1/3 cup Vegetable Oil
1 cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips
3/4 Powdered Sugar
DIRECTIONS
Grease cookie sheet. Set aside.
Preheat oven to 350.
In a large bowl, combine brownie mix, flour, egg, water and oil. Stir until well blended.
Fold in chocolate chips.
Place powdered sugar in a shallow dish.
Drop 1 tablespoon dough into sugar and roll to coat.
Place about 2″ apart on prepared sheet.
Bake 10-12 minutes or until set.
Remove from pan to wire racks to cool.
Note: Your dough will seem a bit tacky/wet. Once you drop the dough balls in the sugar they form quite easy.
Note: Try not to overcook your cookie. If you do, the insides will not be as brownie like. Still good just not as brownieish:)
Do you have a quick and easy cookie that you make often?

Can you refrigerate dough ahead of time?
I need cookies that are freezable. Has anyone frozen these?
TIA
Dough did seem too sticky but I just dropped and rolled them and they were delicious! Making again!
I love them I personally suggest them
I love them I personally suggest u try them
These were absolutely delicious.
Do these cookies freeze well and remain moist and chewie if frozen? I need a cookie I can make in advance and freeze. Thanks
I make these and freeze them every year. They never disappoint. I put them in a plastic container with parchment paper between the layers, cover tightly and then wrap the container in plastic wrap before freezing. Thawing tip for all/any cookies: do not unwrap until they are completely thawed. It seems to keep them from “sweating.”
I love making these cookies. They are gone within a day. I typically get about 75 cookies per batch. I roll a teaspoon size ball that makes a nice 2 bite cookie.
Yield how many cookies….
thank you
I am using 220z Betty Crocker brownie mix. Does that change recipe? Also, comments on Taste of Home say Betty Crocker mix is difficult to work with. If I run into such problems, any suggetions?
Hi. In a pinch do you think regular brownie mix would work?
How many does this make roughly ?
I used a smaller scoop (less than a tablespoon) and I was able to get 58 cookies.
These look absolutely delicious! Super fun for Christmas cookies! Thanks for sharing at Merry Monday!
MMM yummy. I love these kind of cookies. Perfect for the holidays!
Hi Jen, Wow, these cookies sound so good and easy to make as well! Thanks for sharing this recipe! Blessings, Janet
