. . . Cookie Time Tuesday-Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownie Cookies . . .

I really love brownies so when I came across this recipe over on Six Sisters Stuff I knew I had to add it to my Cookie Time Tuesday list.  I am so glad I made these because I found a keeper!  These are kind of like eating a brownie but in cookie form and I love that you can pretty much mix in any type of chips or nuts.  I would like these with mint chips or even white chips or toffee, oh the list is endless!  I think you will really enjoy these and they are super simple to make which is always a bonus!

You will need:
21 ounce box brownie mix (I used Pillsbury Family Size Brownie Mix)
 ½ cup all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons canola oil
2 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons water
Mini chocolate chips or regular Chocolate Chips (add as many as you'd like but the recipe calls for 6 ounces)
Peanut Butter Chips (desired amount to achieve the flavor you want)
¾ cup nuts , chopped (optional) 

Preheat oven to 350°F.  In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients. Stir until well blended. Drop mix from a teaspoon onto a cookie sheet lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Bake for 9 to 10 minutes.
Once cookies have lost their gloss, yet still feel soft to the touch, remove from oven. DO NOT OVER BAKE THESE COOKIES.  Let cool 1 minute, then remove to racks to finish cooling. Store in airtight container for up to 1 week.

 • Gather ingredients
• Mix all ingredients except for the chips together until well combined
• Add in the desired amount of chips and mix well

 • Drop by teaspoonfuls onto a cookie sheet lightly sprayed with baking spray
• Bake at 350 degrees for 9 to 10 minutes and then remove and let cool for about 1 minute then remove to a cooling rack.  The batch above is shown with just chocolate chips added in because my husband and son don't like peanut butter but the other photos show you what the cookies look like with both mini chocolate chips and peanut butter chips in them.  Yummy!

 so good!

 simple and sweet!



enjoy!

. . . Cookie Time Tuesday -- Muffin Top Brownie Cookies . . .

 
I love muffins but my absolute favorite part of eating them is the muffin top.  I am also a big fan of brownies so when I came home from my daily Target run (I swear I'm at Target each and every day--my bank account tells the ugly truth)with a brownie mix I figured why not give them a try in my muffin top baking sheet and see if I could make them into more of a cookie for Cookie Time Tuesday.  This idea had NOTHING to do with the fact that I forgot about Cookie Time Tuesday, ok so it does but it turned out pretty good if I do say so myself.

You will need:
A Brownie Mix and the ingredients listed on the back of the box to prepare it (Typically this is water, eggs and oil).  You will prepare the brownie mix exactly as the box tells you.  I always substitute Coffee for the water.  You would never taste the coffee but it's a great way to enhance the chocolate flavor.  You might want just place brownies but I wanted to add some fun add ins to mine so I did a batch of each of these combos--Mini Chocolate Chips, Peanut Butter Chips and Toffee and Caramel Bits.  I recommend at least adding in some mini chocolate chips for the extra oomph they give to the brownies. Bake these at 350 for about 20 minutes but watch them closely.  It may be less or more bake time depending on the thickness of yours and the add ins you decide on.

**There is no recipe link this time because you follow the recipe on the back of the brownie mix but add in some fun things and you have a unique Muffin Top Cookie.

• Gather up your ingredients
• I wanted to use the muffin top pan I have from Wilton but you could do these in a normal size muffin tin just filling each "hole" with a little bit of batter so it doesn't look like a muffin when they are baked

•Prepare your brownie mix as instructed on the box.  You really should try to the recipe using coffee instead of water--yum!
• Pour about 1/4 Cup into each muffin top "hole".  I sprayed each of my holes with cooking spray to help lessen any sticking.
• Add in the toppings you want and bake

The perfect Muffin Top Brownie Cookie!  

I don't want to point fingers at anyone (Lindy) but someone (Lindy) just had to snag a taste the minute these popped out of the over and let me tell you it was a battle with my will power to not eat the entire Muffin Top Brownie Cookie!
