Prep Time: 30 minutes (plus chilling)
Cook Time: 0 minutes
Chill Time: ~1½ hours
Total Time: ~2 hours
Servings: 20–24 bombs
Dietary: Decadent dessert, No-bake cookie dough

Ingredients

For the edible cookie dough:

  • Unsalted butter – ½ cup, softened

  • Brown sugar – ½ cup

  • White sugar – ¼ cup

  • Whole milk – 2 tbsp

  • Vanilla extract – 1 tsp

  • All-purpose flour – 1 cup (toast for safety if desired)

  • Salt – ¼ tsp

  • Mini chocolate chips – 1 cup

For the brownie layer:

  • Fudge brownies – 1 batch, cooled and cut into 1-inch squares

For the coating:

  • Candiquik or chocolate almond bark – 16 oz, melted

  • Mini chocolate chips – 1 cup (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Make the cookie dough: Beat butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together until light and fluffy. Mix in milk and vanilla. Gradually stir in flour and salt until combined. Fold in 1 cup mini chocolate chips.

  2. Form & freeze: Scoop tablespoon-sized dough balls, place on a foil-lined sheet, and freeze for at least 1 hour.

  3. Wrap with brownies: Cut cooled brownies into 1-inch squares. Flatten a brownie piece in your hand, place a cookie dough ball in the center, and wrap the brownie around it to seal. Repeat for all balls. Freeze again for 30 minutes.

  4. Coat in chocolate: Melt Candiquik or almond bark according to package directions. Dip each brownie bomb in the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place on wax paper.

  5. Decorate & set: Immediately sprinkle with remaining mini chocolate chips. Chill until the coating is fully set.

Quick Notes & Pro Tips

  • Toast the flour: Bake at 350°F for 5 minutes to make it safe to eat raw.

  • Chill in stages: Freezing between steps makes the bombs easier to handle and dip.

  • Use a fork for dipping: It helps excess chocolate drip off cleanly.

FAQs

Q: Can I make these without the brownie layer?
A: Absolutely — just dip the cookie dough balls directly in chocolate for a simpler treat.

Q: Can I use pre-made cookie dough?
A: Yes, but make sure it’s labeled safe-to-eat raw (no eggs and heat-treated flour).

Q: How do I keep the chocolate coating smooth?
A: Melt chocolate slowly and stir often to prevent seizing.

Personal Note

These bombs are a personal favorite for when I can’t choose between brownies, cookies, or chocolate. They’re rich, decadent, and always the first thing gone at parties!
