Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Base

  • 1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on the box, typically eggs, oil, and water)

Cookie Dough Topping

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1½ cups mini chocolate chips
  • ½ cup sweetened condensed milk

Optional Topping

  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Prepare Brownie Batter: Follow the instructions on the brownie mix box to prepare the batter, usually involving combining the mix with eggs, oil, and water.
  2. Preheat and Line Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with paper liners to prepare for baking.
  3. Partially Bake Brownie Bases: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of prepared brownie batter into the bottom of each cupcake liner. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then remove and allow to cool slightly.
  4. Cream Butter and Sugars: While the brownie bases bake, use a large bowl to cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  5. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract into the creamed butter and sugar mixture until fully combined and smooth.
  6. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt to prepare the dry mix.
  7. Mix Dry Ingredients into Wet: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring to create a thick cookie dough.
  8. Incorporate Chocolate Chips and Condensed Milk: Fold mini chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk into the cookie dough batter to enrich texture and flavor.
  9. Assemble Cupcakes: Once the brownie bottoms have cooled slightly, scoop about 2 tablespoons of cookie dough dough on top of each brownie base in the cupcake liners, gently pressing down to evenly layer.
  10. Final Baking: Return the cupcake pan to the oven and bake the assembled cupcakes for another 12 to 14 minutes, or until the cookie dough tops turn golden brown.
  11. Cool Completely: Allow the cupcakes to cool thoroughly in the pan before removing to ensure they hold their shape.
  12. Optional Ganache Drizzle: For a decadent finish, melt the chocolate chips with heavy cream to form a ganache and drizzle over the cooled cupcakes.

Notes

  • You can use homemade brownie batter as an alternative to box mix if preferred.
  • For a firmer texture, chill the cupcakes before serving.
  • Serve warm for gooey, melty centers for an indulgent experience.
