Chewy Brownie Cookies
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups packed light brown sugar
- 2/3 cup vegetable shortening
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Cream sugar and vegetable shortening with an electric mixer in a large bowl until fluffy. Mix in 1 egg until incorporated. Beat in remaining egg along with water and vanilla until well combined.
- Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. Stir flour mixture into creamed mixture at low speed until just blended; fold in chocolate chips. Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are set, 7 to 9 minutes. Cool for 2 minutes on the baking sheets; transfer cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
