TIP: for the PERFECT Circle Cookies, use a circle cookie cutter larger than your cookies to place around your baked cookies. Move the cookie cutter around a little and it will make the cookies all the same size! 

Finally, let the brownie mix cookies cool on the baking sheet for several minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Once cooled, these delicious and colorful M&M Brownie Mix Cookies will be ready to eat! ENJOY!

Can brownie mix be made into cookies?

YES!!! It’s one of our favorite ways to make chocolate cookies – so simple and easy. I threw in a little flour to make them thick and chewy! Also add a bunch of M&Ms and Chocolate Chips for the PERFECT Brownie Mix Cookies!

What can I add to brownie mix to make it better?

My number one brownie hack is adding chocolate syrup to brownies! I even added chocolate syrup to these Brownie Mix Cookies! It adds a new level of flavor and makes the brownies or brownie cookies so soft and chewy!

Can you use butter instead of oil in brownie mix cookies?

YES! That’s exactly what I did in this recipe. I swapped out the oil for the same amount of unsalted butter. A super simple swap if you don’t have oil or don’t want to use it in your baking.
