I didn’t have time to bake victory treats after our win over the Lightning, so I stepped it up today – hot fudge brownie cookies with crushed nutter butters and peanut butter chips!
These are simple, using just a few ingredients – brownie mix, flour, water, oil, egg, hot fudge, nutter butters and Reese’s peanut butter chips. And yes, you can leave the nutter butters out, use a different crushed cookie, and also use a different chips flavor!
Ingredients list
1 brownie mix
1/2 cup flour (scooped from flour bag into measuring cup)
1 egg
1/4 cup vegetable oil
5 tbs water
1/4 cup hot fudge (room temp is easiest to work with)
16 nutter butters, finely crushed
1 cup peanut butter chips
Using a food processor is easiest way to crush nutter butters
Directions – preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside. In a bowl, blend brownie mix, flour, egg, water and vegetable oil. Blend in hot fudge, then nutter butters. Mix in chips. Scoop our 1/4 cups of dough and stagger on prepared cookie sheet.
Bake 12 minutes, no longer. Cool completely.
I put mine in the fridge to help firm them up a bit. Store in covered container.

I found these oreos in the “aisle of shame” at aldi.
If you are not familiar with it, it is an aisle of stuff you “probably” don’t need, but the price is great and you think “why not”? That aisle is the best! It is how I wound up with an electric cake pop maker and churro maker (both work like the George foreman electric plug in grill), which i have yet to use. Each was 7$.
