A Sweet Treat Straight from My Nonna’s Kitchen Table
I’ll never forget the first time my Nonna let me sneak a bite of cookie dough while we were baking. That soft, buttery texture mixed with the rich flavor of chocolate chips became one of my earliest comfort food memories. Years later, I discovered a fun and indulgent twist: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs. These heavenly bites combine the gooey nostalgia of cookie dough with the decadent chew of fudgy brownies, all wrapped in smooth chocolate. What’s not to love?

Instructions

Make the Edible Cookie Dough
- Heat-treat the flour: Microwave the flour in a bowl for 1 minute, stirring every 15 seconds to kill any bacteria.
- In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy.
- Add milk and vanilla. Mix until smooth.
- Gradually mix in the flour and salt until a dough forms.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Roll into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill for 30 minutes.
Wrap in Brownie
- Crumble the baked and cooled brownies into a bowl.
- Take one cookie dough ball and press a small amount of brownie around it, gently rolling it into a ball.
- Repeat until all the cookie dough is wrapped in brownie.
- Chill again for 15–20 minutes to firm up.
Dip in Chocolate

- Melt the chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave or double boiler until smooth.
- Using a fork, dip each brownie bomb into the chocolate, tapping off excess.
- Place back on the parchment-lined sheet and optionally sprinkle with mini chips or sea salt.
- Chill for another 20 minutes or until the chocolate is set.
