Craving a rich, fudgy brownie but want something quick and incredibly simple? These 3-Ingredient Brownie Cookies are the ultimate answer! They look and taste exactly like a gourmet brownie, but they require absolutely no flour and come together in minutes.
INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 large egg whites (or 3 small egg whites)
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat your oven to 370°F (188°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder and powdered sugar until well combined.
- Add the egg whites to the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth, glossy batter forms.
- Cover the bowl and chill the batter in the freezer for 30 minutes, or refrigerate for at least 1 hour, until it has firmed up.
- Using two teaspoons or a small cookie scoop, drop teaspoon-sized portions of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie to allow for spreading.
- Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the cookies have developed their signature cracked tops.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for several minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- These cookies are naturally gluten-free if all ingredients used are certified gluten-free.
- Chilling the batter is essential for achieving the classic crackled appearance.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
