Sink your teeth into the ultimate indulgence with these Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs. Imagine rich, fudgy brownie wrapped around creamy chocolate chip cookie dough, dipped in a silky chocolate coating, and topped with a luscious drizzle and chocolate chips. Every bite bursts with contrasting textures and a double hit of chocolatey decadence.

These brownie bombs are made for celebrations, movie nights, or whenever you’re craving a show-stopping dessert. The combination of chewy brownie, soft cookie dough, and melty chocolate center is simply irresistible. You can even prepare them ahead and chill until you’re ready to wow your guests.

What Kind of Brownie Should I Use?

A dense, fudgy brownie works best for this recipe. Stay away from cakey varieties, as they tend to crumble and won’t mold well around the cookie dough center. You can use your favorite homemade recipe or a high-quality box mix—just make sure the texture leans moist and chewy.

Ingredients for the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs

Brownies: Rich and fudgy brownies are the shell that encases the gooey center. Cool completely before use.
Cookie Dough: Egg-free chocolate chip cookie dough is essential for safety and that classic chewy, buttery flavor.
Chocolate Chips: Both mini and regular chips work great here—in the dough, for topping, and melted as part of the coating.
Peanut Butter or Ganache (optional): For an added layer of flavor, drizzle with melted peanut butter or ganache.
Butter: Adds moisture and flavor to the cookie dough.
Brown Sugar & Granulated Sugar: A mix of sugars brings depth and chewiness to the dough.
Vanilla Extract: Rounds out the cookie dough flavor.
All-Purpose Flour: Heat-treated flour is used in the dough to keep it safe for eating raw.
Salt: Just a pinch to enhance all the other flavors.

How To Make the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs

Step 1: Prepare the Cookie Dough Center

Mix softened butter, both sugars, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Stir in heat-treated flour and a pinch of salt. Fold in chocolate chips. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and freeze for 30 minutes until firm.

Step 2: Shape the Brownie Shell

Once the brownies are completely cooled, cut them into large squares. Flatten each square slightly in your hand. Wrap each brownie piece around a frozen cookie dough ball, sealing it completely.

Step 3: Chill and Coat

Place the wrapped balls onto a lined tray and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes. Meanwhile, melt chocolate chips until smooth. Dip each brownie bomb in the melted chocolate and place on parchment to set.

Step 4: Add Toppings

While the coating is still soft, drizzle with melted peanut butter or ganache and sprinkle with more chocolate chips. Let set completely before serving.

How to Serve and Store These Brownie Bombs

Serve the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs slightly chilled or at room temperature. The center remains creamy, and the chocolate shell has that perfect snap. These are excellent on a dessert platter, in treat boxes, or alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. For longer storage, freeze them for up to 2 months. Just bring to room temperature before enjoying.
