These Cream Cheese Brownie Cookies are ridiculously gooey and fudgy! They’re also super simple made with a brownie mix! This cream cheese brookie recipe is the chocolate dessert of your wildest dreams!
So lately I have been working on recipes for the book basically like all the dang time. And all the recipes (good, bad and ever uglier) have to be tested. Which means I can either consume 40 million calories a day…OR I can do my best to make my neighbors fat. Unfortunately I have inadvertently chosen both of these options. But as long as I can keep my friends fat…you know how it goes.
Easy Cream Cheese Brownie Cookie Recipe
Anyhow, with all the food, I have been having people over for dinner/dessert quite often (my husband can only eat so many cupcakes). Luckily I have some pretty fab foodie friends and they have given me some pretty great feedback. Needs caramelized onions (done). Too much tequila (shocker). A tiny bit too creamy (easy fix). It’s a process.
Anyhow, what I’ve found is that although I’m basically using my friends as a focus group, they don’t seem to mind as long as there is dessert involved. And aren’t cookies always the answer? Enter these super easy…crazy delicious…Cream Cheese Brownie Cookies.There are only a few ingredients needed for these super thick, gooey cookies…even my non-chocolate loving husband went nuts for these. And that is saying a lot!
How to Make Brownie Cookies From Mix:
Just grab a box of brownie mix. I love the Chocolate Fudge Brownie Mix from Pillsbury for this recipe.
Mix in some cream cheese, butter, an egg and white chocolate chips. That’s it.
The dough will be super thick…but use a large cookie scoop to make them all even. Love my cookie scoop.
Bake them until they are set around the edges. The tops will still seem a bit underdone…it’s ok, you want a gooey cookie.
See? Gooey, thick, chocolatey with the perfect amount of white chocolate chips throughout!
Such a simple recipe that you can whip up for any celebration!

Hi! I’m Shelly and I’m an addict. Of the buttercream sort. I started this site a few years ago as a way to justify my sugary, buttery obsession with desserts. It has worked out well for me so far, because as it turns out you guys all love sugary, buttery desserts too! It feels good to know you're not alone, doesn’t it?

I absolutely love these! I used milk chocolate chips instead of white chocolate (not a fan of white chocolate). The end result was AMAZING. Family approved with raving reviews. I will definitely be making these again and again. Thanks for the recipe.

So glad you liked them!!
Hi Shelly – How are you? Question – The brownie mix you have shown here that you said you usually use – I can only find it in 18.4 oz, not 19.5 oz that you have listed in the recipe. Can you still use it and do you need to change any of the other measurements as a result?
Thanks much,
Linda
That will work! This recipe is super forgiving!
Shelly – Just made a batch of these. Wowwww. So delish. Nice and gooey and fudgy inside. Taking to my coworkers. They will just devour them I’m sure. Thanks so much for sharing your recipe.
These cookies are FANTASTIC! They are so easy to make, but are always such a HUGE hit! I’ve used a mocha brownie mix in the past that was to die for, but haven’t been able to find that this year. So, I’m going to improvise and add some instant coffee to the batch to see if that will give me a nice mocha flavor. 🙂

Love the idea of mocha brownie mix for these!! So glad you like them!
Made these twice this past week. Easy and rich. Husband loved them as they were soft cookies. I added cocoa powder to make up the weight of my brownie mix.
Great recipe!

SO glad you liked them!
I used two boxes of Ghiradelli double chocolate brownie mixes and added one egg white and they turned out great.

My picky eater son loves this recipe so much! He has even modified it to use the girl scout mint brownie mix!
Such a great idea!
how to make these cookies in a manual way? i mean besides using brownie mix
My first time to try baking a cookie and did not regret it, these cookies are absolutely yummy but mine turned out a bit too sweet. I was thinking could be the homemade brownie mix that i used which I forgot where I got it from a very long time ago. But thanks for this recipe, will definitely make it again soon.
So glad you liked them!
I just love the cookies they are going to be my new favorite!! I can’t wait to make them for my family.
What if i’m making a homemade brownie mix? How many cups of it should I use? Thank you 🙂
Just made these for a get together this evening…turned out perfectly! Subbed semi sweet chips for white & non stick spray in place of parchment. Great change from plain brownies…thank you!
could you use chocolate fudge cake mix?
I’m baking a huge amount of cookies for my Mom’s 90th birthday and these would be a nice addition. Do you think they would freeze okay as I’m baking and freezing?
Yes absolutely!
Passed on to my friends.
Love these cookies. I didn’t use white chocolate chips (personal preference for semi-sweet and milk chocolate) but that doesn’t make these anything less than 5 stars. Thank you for a great way to use up my overstocked brownie mixes.
★★★★★
I don’t get it, the box of brownies you show as your favorite to use is only 18.4 oz but you said up use 19.5?
Family Size Brownies mix sizes vary brand to brand…and this recipe will work with a box up to 19.5 oz 🙂
I didn’t have white chocolate chips so I used Nestle Delight Fulls chips with mint filling!!!!! AMAZING Thank you so much! Will definitely make these again and experiment even more.
★★★★★
Oh yum!! I bet those were amazing!!
I made these last week and everyone in my house loved them!! Thank you for sharing the recipe wih us.

I just made these fabulous brownies! Thanks for sharing the recipe. Best brownie cookies ever!
These are great! I made a regular version with white chocolate chips and an almost sugar-free version with peanut butter chips and they both were eaten up! My sugar-free friend was happy to have a delicious treat he could eat. Thanks for the great recipe! http://munchiesmind.com/2015/01/18/cream-cheese-brownie-cookies-sugar-free-option-too/

I was so excited to try these. Had such a hard time getting them to set…. ended up having to cook each batch for at least 20 minutes. My husband loves them!
I LOVE these! I must be doing something wrong though. Mine never stay fluffy, they fall flat as they cool. 🙁
These are AMAZING!!! When I gave one to my husband to try he said “I hope you made at least 1,000 more of these!!” I used milk chocolate brownie mix because that’s what a accidently bought and I haven’t tried making them with fudge brownies so next time I will try fudge but the milk chocolate brownie mix is really good in case that’s what you bought or already have! These are my new go-to when I have to go somewhere and bring something!!!

These are amaaaazing. I made them about a month ago and froze the leftovers, which my boyfriend and I proceeded to polish off directly out of the freezer!! Right now I have a batch in the oven for made with the Pillsbury chocolate mocha brownie mix. The batter is so good, I know these will be amazing as well. Only change I’ve made each time is to use three kinds of chips – white chocolate, butterscotch and bittersweet. TOO GOOD. ????
*for Thanksgiving
Oh YUM!! Love that idea!!
Can I use oil instead of butter? I’ve made these and they are amazing, by the way! I added PB chips AND white chocolate chips
They might spread a bit more, but I bet they would be ok!
This looks awesome but what can I use to replace the egg? That is vegetarian friendly?
