Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box brownie mix
- 1 roll refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
- 12 Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
- 2 large eggs
- ⅓ cup (79 ml) vegetable oil
- ¼ cup (59 ml) water
Instructions
- Preparation: Preheat oven to 350°F and meticulously line muffin tin with cupcake liners, ensuring complete cavity coverage for seamless removal.
- Cookie Base: Press chilled chocolate chip cookie dough slices uniformly into cupcake liners, creating a robust foundation for the Brookies.
- Chocolate Core: Strategically place inverted Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups atop cookie dough layer, establishing a hidden chocolaty-peanut butter center.
- Brownie Infusion: Whisk brownie mix to achieve a silky, lump-free consistency, then gently pour batter over peanut butter cups, filling liners three-quarters full to accommodate rising.
- Baking Process: Slide muffin tin into preheated oven, baking for 18-20 minutes until Brookies are set and a toothpick inserted near center reveals minimal moist crumbs.
- Cooling Stage: Allow Brookies to rest in tin for 5-10 minutes, then delicately transfer to wire rack for complete cooling, preserving their decadent texture and intricate layers.
Notes
- Maintain Precise Measurements: Follow each ingredient quantity exactly to achieve the perfect Brookie texture and taste.
- Check Cookie Dough Temperature: Ensure cookie dough is chilled for easier handling and prevents spreading during baking.
- Watch Baking Time Carefully: Ovens vary, so start checking at 16 minutes to prevent overbaking and maintain a moist center.
- Use Room Temperature Ingredients: Bring eggs and other refrigerated items to room temperature for smoother mixing and better integration.
