Recipe for intensely chocolatey cookies with pretzels
If you like chocolate cookies, I have something delicious for you! I invite you to try simple brownie cookies with pretzels. The cookies are intensely chocolatey and slightly soft inside. And they are baked with pieces of salted pretzels, which add flavor and crunch. Preparing such chocolate brownie cookies is quick and very simple, and you don’t need any complicated ingredients. This is a great recipe for simple chocolate cookies that you can prepare for the weekend, as an accompaniment to coffee, or even as a snack to take to work, university, or school for your child. I highly recommend it!
Why is it worth baking such brownie cookies with pretzels?
My today’s chocolate cookies with pretzels I made for my daughter’s friends and I must admit, I really liked them. They turned out mega chocolatey, as intense as brownies. Delicately soft inside with a slightly crispy crust on the outside. Additionally, the lightly salted pretzels added a nice flavor and tasty pieces inside. The recipe itself is super simple to prepare, so anyone can handle it. You can make the brownie cookie dough in advance and keep it in the fridge – it needs to chill thoroughly before baking anyway. Then you just take it out of the fridge, scoop portions of dough with a spoon, and bake the cookies! You must try them!
Ingredients for chocolate cookies with pretzels
To make such cookies with chocolate and pretzels at home, you will need a few basic ingredients. Below is a condensed list of products I used and possible substitutes.
- chocolate – dark chocolate will be best, but you can also use semi-sweet – pay attention to the package weight, because large manufacturers often now make packages of 90, or even 80 g
- butter – I recommend extra butter 82%, ultimately you can use mixed butter, or vegetable butter
- sugar – I used regular sugar, but you can also use cane sugar, and if you want to slightly reduce the calorie content of the cookies, you can use erythritol
What can replace pretzels?
Don’t have pretzels, but craving these cookies? Instead, you can add salted pretzel sticks broken into smaller pieces to the dough :) You can also skip this addition if you have nothing and just add about 0.5 teaspoon of salt to the dough to give them “character”.
How many kcal does one brownie cookie have?
In the table below the recipe, I provided the calorie content for 100 g of finished cookies, because you might get a different amount than I did. For me, with 14 cookies, one of them had about 225 kcal (carbohydrates – 24.4 g, proteins – 3.5 g, fats – 12.5 g).
I hope that my simple step-by-step recipe for brownie cookies with pretzels will also find a place in your kitchen and you will gladly use it. Be sure to let me know how you like these cookies!
