Ingredients
- For the Cookie Dough:
- ¾ cup butter, softened
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup white sugar
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp almond extract
- 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1¼ cups yellow or Funfetti cake mix
- Rainbow sprinkles
- For Assembly:
- 1 pan (13×9 inch) fudge brownies, baked and cooled
- 1 package chocolate bark
- ¼ package white chocolate bark
Directions
- Prepare Cookie Dough: In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the milk, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Gradually blend in the flour and cake mix until a soft dough forms. Fold in the rainbow sprinkles. Set aside.
- Form Dough Balls: Line a baking sheet with foil. Roll the cookie dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared sheet. Freeze the dough balls for 1-2 hours until they are firm.
- Wrap with Brownie: Cut the cooled brownies into 1-inch squares. Flatten each square slightly in your palm, place a frozen cookie dough ball in the center, and carefully wrap the brownie around the dough, ensuring the dough is completely enclosed. Smooth out any gaps or seams.
- Dip in Chocolate: Melt the chocolate bark according to the package directions. Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each brownie bomb into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is completely coated. Let the excess chocolate drip off before placing the bomb back on the baking sheet. Repeat with all brownie bombs.
- Decorate: Melt the white chocolate bark and use a spoon or a piping bag to drizzle it over the chocolate-coated brownie bombs. Add more sprinkles for decoration while the chocolate is still wet.
- Set and Serve: Allow the chocolate to set completely, either at room temperature or in the refrigerator, before serving.
Preparation Tips
- Chilling the Dough: Keep the cookie dough chilled until you are ready to use it; this helps in easier handling and prevents it from getting too soft when wrapping with the brownie.
- Cooling the Brownies: Ensure the brownies are completely cooled before assembly to prevent the cookie dough from melting.
- Flavor Variations: Feel free to experiment with different types of cake mixes or chocolates to customize the flavor of your brownie bombs. Vanilla or chocolate cake mixes and various types of chocolate barks can add a new twist to each batch.
