Brownie Bites

My grandmother used to make these easy cookies for us all the time. They are chocolaty, chewy little bites that taste a lot like brownies. (That would probably be why they are called brownie bites.) You may want to think about making a double batch, because they seem to disappear quickly.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    makes about 4 dozen cookies

Ingredients

12 ounces chocolate chips
1/4 cup butter
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup flour
1 cup chopped walnuts

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F.

    Step 2

    Place the chocolate chips and butter in a small saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for 5 to 7 minutes, until all of the chips are melted. (Alternatively, if you have a microwave, place the chocolate chips and butter in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high heat for 1 minute, then stir. If the chocolate is not all melted, place it back in the microwave for 15 seconds at a time, stirring after each time, until it is completely melted.)

    Step 3

    Add the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, flour, and walnuts and stir until combined.

    Step 4

    Drop teaspoonfuls of the dough 2 inches apart on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, or until the tops look dry. Let cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then cool on parchment or waxed paper.
