Of the sampler box I was lucky enough to receive these were my children’s favourites, and high on the list for me as well.! Scrumptious brownie inspired cookie perfect with a glass of milk, or coffee. I will try to recreate, but probably never replicate ?

For the chocolate lover I am, these taste like heaven!!! No kids to bake them for me ... no problem, did it myself. Didn't have Cocoa nibs but they still taste great. Specially with a glass of milk. Thanks Kim

I made these cookies today (a half recipe, because I didn't have enough chocolate on hand). It made 20 cookies and let's just say I ate quite a few. They are fantastic. A bit of feedback though -- I went out and bought the cocoa nibs (should have picked up more chocolate too but didn't realize until it was too late). They add a nice crunch but they were so expensive and I don't think worthwhile, considering I only used a TB and I can't imagine what I will do with the rest of the bag now (and they were $15). I think next time I would use toasted walnuts for some real brownie-ness. One question though, how much salt does the recipe call for? It is not specified in the ingredient list, but the instructions include salt. I threw in a 1/4 tsp for the half recipe and it worked out but I may as well know the correct amount. (I emailed you this question earlier but answering here is great too.) Thank you!

Oh my goodness, these cookies... I don't have any kids that can make them for me, but maybe we can make them together with my husband for our fun time in the kitchen and then enjoy them one after the other :-) . I simply adore Smitten Kitchen's recipes, and I had missed this one. Thank you!

I would love it if my kids made me these for Mothers Day :) Maybe I should print the recipe out and leave it where they can find it, lol. These cookies look delicious and so wonderfully chocolatey.

Can't go wrong with cookie and brownies in the same title! I think I'll just leave this open right here so my kids will see it. :) They LUV to bake!

These sound so perfect for when I can't decide whether I want brownies or cookies! Also, that blue mixing bowl is beautiful - where is it from?

They look soooooo Delicious! If my kids made these, I think they would eat them all ! Well, maybe they would save me one .......lol....Thanks for sharing!
