Chewy Patriotic Brownie Cookies

This patriotic dessert is very easy to make. Boxed brownie mix is combined with eggs, vegetable oil and flour. Then the batter is mixed until smooth. Next chocolate chips and M&M’s are folded into the batter before scooping into mounds onto a cookie sheet. The cookies are baked and then additional M&M’s are pressed into the hot cookies. After sitting on the cookie sheets for a few minutes the cookies are transferred to wire racks to cool completely.

Ingredients

  • 1 box brownie mix not prepared
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup canola oil

  • 1 cup patriotic M&M’s

  1. Preheat oven to 375 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.

  5. Bake for 9 to 10 minutes.
  6. When removing from the oven, tap the sheet on the counter or top of the range to release some of the air in the cookies and give them a nice crackle top.
