- 1 box (about 18–20 oz / 500–550 g) brownie mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup (80 ml) vegetable oil
Instructions
- 1. Preheat and Prepare
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
- 2. Mix Dough
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Stir with a spoon or spatula until a thick, glossy dough forms and all dry mix is incorporated.
- 3. Shape Cookies
- Scoop heaping tablespoonfuls of dough and roll into balls. Place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- 4. Create Crinkles
- For extra crinkle tops, gently press the tops of the dough balls with your fingers or the back of a spoon.
- 5. Bake
- Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft.
- 6. Cool
- Remove from oven and let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung
Ensure even baking by spacing the dough balls well apart and pressing them gently for that signature crinkle look. Cooling the cookies on the baking sheet before moving helps them firm up without spreading too much.
