Ingredients
Method
Step 1: Make the Brownie Batter Filling
- Preheat your oven to convection 350°F.
- In a bowl, beat the butter and granulated sugar until smooth. Mix in vanilla extract and milk. Add the flour and cocoa powder, folding until a thick brownie batter forms. Set aside.
Step 2: Make the Strawberry Cookie Dough
- In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and granulated sugar until light and off-white, about 1–2 minutes.
- Mix in the egg, strawberry extract, and pink food coloring until fully combined. Add the flour, baking soda, and baking powder, mixing just until a dough forms.
- Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Step 3: Assemble the Cookies
- Scoop ⅓ cup of cookie dough and flatten it in your palm.
- Place 1–2 tablespoons of brownie batter filling in the center, then fold the cookie dough around the filling to seal it completely.
- Mix granulated sugar and sprinkles in a small bowl and roll each dough ball in the mixture.
Step 4: Bake
- Place the cookie dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between each.
- Bake for 12–13 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers remain soft.
Step 5: Shape & Cool
- For perfectly round cookies, use a circular cup or cookie cutter to gently swirl around each cookie immediately after baking.
- Let cookies cool on the tray for 10 minutes before transferring.
Step 6: Serve & Store
- Enjoy fresh, or store cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 8 days.
