Why you will love this recipe?

Expert Tips for Best results!
- Activate the yeast properly – Make sure the yeast mixture becomes bubbly before adding the flour. This guarantees a soft and well risen bread.
- Expect a sticky dough – The dough will be sticky in the beginning. Lightly oiling your hands helps you knead it without adding too much extra flour.
- Proof twice for better texture – Allowing the dough to rise again after dividing gives the naan an even softer and fluffier finish.
- Make deep indentations – Pressing your fingers into the dough helps it bake evenly and gives it that traditional Afghani look.
- Bake on high heat – A hot oven creates a soft inside with a slightly crisp top layer.
- Do not overbake – Take the naan out once it turns golden. Overbaking can make it tough instead of soft.
How to make Fudgy Brownie Cookies Recipe?






Step 1: Melt the Chocolate
First, preheat your oven to 180°C. In a microwave safe bowl, combine the butter and dark chocolate. Heat in short intervals of about twenty seconds, mixing in between, until the chocolate melts completely and the mixture becomes smooth. Set the bowl aside to cool slightly while you prepare the next step.
Step 2: Whip the Sugars and Egg
In another bowl, add the egg, vanilla, white sugar and brown sugar. Using an electric mixer, whip the mixture for about five minutes until it becomes thick, pale and glossy. This step is important because it helps create the shiny crackly top after baking.
Step 3: Combine the Mixtures
Once the sugar mixture is ready, pour the melted chocolate mixture into it. Gently fold everything together with a spatula until it is fully combined and smooth.
Step 4: Add the Dry Ingredients
Now sift in the flour, cornflour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Fold the mixture gently and only until everything is combined. Add the chocolate chunks and fold again. The batter will be thick and glossy.
Step 5: Scoop and Bake
Lightly brush a little oil on an ice cream scoop to help release the dough easily. Scoop the cookie dough onto a lined baking tray, leaving space between each portion. Bake the cookies at 180°C for eight to twelve minutes, just until the tops are shiny and crinkly. The centres should still look soft and slightly under baked.
Step 6: Let Them Set
Finally, remove the tray from the oven and allow the cookies to rest on the baking tray for ten to fifteen minutes. The cookies continue to set as they cool, which helps keep the centre fudgy.

Fudgy Brownie Cookies Recipe
These brownie cookies recipe is rich, fudgy and full of chocolate flavour with a shiny crinkle top and soft gooey centre. Perfect for days when you want something quick, comforting and irresistibly chocolatey.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter (58g)
- 100g dark chocolate (I used @delhaizebelgium Dark Chocolate)
- 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp white caster sugar (75g)
- 2 tbsp soft brown sugar (25g)
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1/3 cup + 1tbsp flour (49g)
- 1 tbsp cornflour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder (12g)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 75g chocolate chunks
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a microwave safe bowl, add the butter and dark chocolate. Heat in short intervals of about twenty seconds, mixing in between, until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Set it aside to cool slightly.
- In another bowl, add the egg, vanilla, white sugar, and brown sugar. Whisk with an electric mixer for about five minutes until the mixture becomes thick, pale, and glossy.
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the whipped egg mixture and gently fold it in with a spatula until it is well combined.
- Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and cornflour. Fold the dry ingredients into the batter slowly until everything is just combined.
- Add the chocolate chunks and fold them in gently.
- Lightly oil an ice cream scoop and scoop the cookie dough onto the lined baking tray, leaving space between each cookie.
- Bake the cookies for eight to twelve minutes until the tops become shiny and crinkly while the centres remain soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking tray for ten to fifteen minutes so they can firm up into the perfect fudgy texture.
Notes
- A small note to remember is that these cookies must be baked immediately after the batter is prepared. If the batter sits for too long, you will lose the shiny crinkle top.
