Whenever I want to wow friends, I whip up these Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs. First, you get that dense brownie bite, then there’s creamy cookie dough snuck inside, and the whole thing is dunked in silky chocolate. Folks always go wild for them at parties, especially when they hit that cookie dough surprise in the middle.
Delightful Triple Chocolate Treat
These tasty bombs are like a dessert mashup all in one bite. Gooey brownie wraps around smooth cookie dough, then they're covered in a chocolatey coating—talk about a showstopper. Plus, you can play around with toppings to make them your own, and the whole process is actually a blast.

Common Questions
- → How safe is the cookie dough?
Yep, it’s safe! The dough doesn’t have eggs so you won’t have to worry. For extra safety, you can microwave or bake the flour first.
- → What makes the chocolate crack?
If the centers are super cold, chocolate can pop or crack as it cools down. Let them sit out a little before dunking.
- → Can I keep these in the freezer?
You sure can! Stash them for up to three months. Move them to the fridge to thaw before serving.
- → What’s the trick for less messy chocolate?
Dunk using a fork, let that extra chocolate drip off, then set them on parchment so they don’t stick everywhere.
- → Are homemade brownies okay?
Totally—go for any fudgy brownies you like. Just make sure they’re cool before you use them.
