Brownie Batter Cookies with Mars Chocolate Bars
Whether you’re a brownie or cookie person, you can have both and you’ll love these chocolate-filled treats. These easy-to-make Brownie Batter Cookies use Mars Chocolate Bars for an indulging, delicious chewy goodness inside with a crunchy texture on the outside.
Ingredients
- 3.5 Oz of unsalted butter {100 gr}
- ¾ cup of white sugar
- ¾ cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tbs espesso powder
- 2 to 3 regular bars of Mars Bar chocolate chopped.
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup of all purpose flour
- 1 tsp of baking soda
- ¼ tsp of salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- First of all pre-heat the oven to 350ºF {180ºC}
- In a mixing bowl, put the butter and the chocolate chips and take them to the microwave for 2-3 minutes {depending on your microwave potency}.
- About half time stir and put it back.
- It should be ready when it’s completely melted and smooth.
- If you don’t have a microwave you can always go for “bain-marie or double bath” {hot water bath}.
- Then stir the sugar, salt, and vanilla and mix well.
- Let it cool for a few minutes so it doesn’t cook the eggs.
- Then start adding the eggs. These should be added one at a time mixing well until they are completely incorporated.
- Then add the flour and baking soda and stir strongly with preferably a wooden spoon. It gets very hard so you have to put a lot into it.
- Mix until the batter is smooth and shiny – don’t overmix.
- Lastly, add the mars bar chunks and mix.
- In a baking tray, spray some butter and place about a spoon per cooky.
- Make sure to leave space so when they grow, they don’t stick together.
- Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until you see them slightly cracked and puffed up.
- Take them out so they still are soft and gooey. The key here is to slightly underbake them.
- Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the hot cookie sheet, then transfer them to a cooling rack.
Notes
They will get thinner and a bit crunchier on the outside when they cool down but are still soft inside and with melted caramel from the Mars chocolate bars.
I love eating them fresh right off the cookie sheet so they are still a bit warm and gooey…. drooling here!
