I've had several people tell me these are the best cookies they ever ate. The perfect chewy brownie cookie with crisp edges. Delicious!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

These brownie cookies offer the best of both worlds by combining classic brownie flavor in cookie form. They are the perfect balance of gooey in the middle with slightly crisp edges. The ultimate treat for any chocolate lover. We first tried them were still warm from the oven. The chocolaty gooeyness was to die for. And guess what... after they cooled they were still equally addictive!
