Ingredients
Scale
1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup lightly packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon milk (any type)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
3/4 cup miniature chocolate chips
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
16 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
4 teaspoons coconut oil
Instructions
In an electric mixer bowl, beat butter and sugars on medium-high speed until fluffy. Add milk and vanilla extract. Gradually mix in flour and salt on low speed. Stir in miniature chocolate chips.
Scoop dough into 2-teaspoon-sized balls and place on parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for one hour or until firm.
Preheat oven to 325°F. Line an 8×8-inch pan with foil, leaving an overhang. In a large bowl, combine melted butter, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt until thick and well blended. Cool if needed. Stir in vanilla, then eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly. Add flour and blend well. Spread batter evenly in pan.
Bake for 20 minutes until cooked through but moist and fudgy. Allow to cool.
Cut brownies into 1-inch squares. Flatten each square, place a cookie dough ball in the center, and wrap brownie around it, shaping into a ball. Repeat with remaining pieces. Freeze assembled balls for 30 minutes.
Melt chopped semisweet chocolate and coconut oil in microwave-safe bowl in 1-minute increments, stirring between intervals until smooth.
Dip each brownie ball into melted chocolate to coat fully. Allow excess chocolate to drip off. Place on baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes until set. Store in airtight container in refrigerator.
Notes
Ensure the brownies are cooled before assembling.
Customize the chocolate chips by using dark or white chocolate if preferred.
Store brownies in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
