Chewy HALLOWEEN Frosted Brownie Cookies are everything you love about brownies, in cookie form! Soft & chewy with a decadent chocolate icing, these cookies are perfect for chocolate lovers!
Preheat your oven to 325°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment and set aside.
Microwave the cocoa, butter, and shortening for 1:30 to 2 minutes. Stir until the cocoa dissolves.
Stir the sugar into the chocolate until well-blended. Stir in eggs and vanilla.
Once those are incorporated add the flour and salt.
Mix well and then stir in the chocolate chips.
Drop by tablespoons onto a cookie sheet that is lightly greased or covered with a silicone baking mat.
Bake for 18-20 minutes. You should be able to see the tops crack just slightly. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes before removing from pan.
Chocolate Frosting
Heat the cream and butter in a saucepan until the butter melts and the mixture just begins to boil.
Pour the mixture over the chocolate chips and allow it all to sit.
After 5 minutes, stir the mixture. The chocolate chips will melt into the hot cream leaving you a chocolate ganache with which you can dip or drizzle your cookies. Top frosted cookies with Halloween sprinkles & let cool to set.
