Ingredients

  • 12 Tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • One 3.4 ounce box instant dry vanilla pudding mix just the powder; do NOT prepare the pudding
  • 1 & 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 9-10 fudge brownie bites cut into about 3/4 - 1 inch size squares or if using store-bought brownie bites, cut in half

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners; set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar with the paddle attachment until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Add in the egg and egg yolk, beating well after each addition, followed by the vanilla. Lastly, add in the baking soda, cornstarch, salt, flour, and dry pudding powder and mix on low speed until a soft dough has formed. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Using a 1-Tablespoon-size cookie dough scoop, scoop out a cookie dough ball into your hand and make an indentation in the center of the dough ball using your thumb. Fill the indentation with a piece of fudge brownie. Using a half-scoop of more dough, gently pinch and roll the dough around the brownie, enclosing it completely. Place the dough balls about 2-3" apart on the baking sheets. Repeat with remaining dough balls.
  • Bake for approximately 10-12 minutes, rotating pans halfway through baking time to ensure even cooking. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the baking sheets before serving.
