Week of Holiday Treats: Brownie Cookies

DSC_0204
The next round of goodies for my Week of Holiday Treats are Brownie Cookies from Tasty Kitchen. I actually made these cookies way back in October to take to work for my hubby's birthday. Apparently one co-worker told him that these were the best cookies she's ever had. These cookies in brownie form are pretty yummy - soft in the middle and a little crispy on the outsides. They are a fun variation to the typical chocolate cookie.

Refrigerate the dough for 1 hour or until manageable. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Using a tablespoon or mini ice cream scooper drop cookie dough onto baking sheets, leaving a couple of inches between each cookie.
