Brownie-Batter Cookies

I guess I sort of made these by accident one day. After going to the potluck at Pie Ranch and trying some cookies just like these, I had to have some of my own. If you just undercook them, they have gooey brownie batter insides while remaining firm and chewy on the outside. Give them a dusting of powdered sugar and serve them with a glass of (soy) milk, and you're golden. You're basically like Midas, but with cookies.

Anything Goes Brownie Mix Cookies

Sort of Adapted from cooks.com

Ingredients
1 package (18 oz) Ghirardelli dark chocolate chip brownie mix
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup butter
3 tbsp water
2 eggs

Directions
(please, oh please, be precise about baking times, otherwise these will be hard as rock)
1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. Mix all ingredients together except the eggs. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs lightly and then add to the rest of the ingredients. Combine.
3. OPTIONAL: You can basically throw whatever you want in here. I've thrown in brown sugar, two melted marshmallows, a bit of bacon grease (SUE ME, DAMMIT), chopped walnuts, and M&Ms
4. Drop by the tablespoon (or as large as you want) onto a greased baking sheet or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Dust with powdered sugar.
5. Cook about 9 minutes, or until the center is just firming up. Take out of the oven and let cool. I dare you.

Notes:
- The batter will be runny like brownie batter, just trust that it will be A-okay.
- Cookies will be thin, but gooey. I'm sure there is a way to amend this, but then the cookies wouldn't be as easy to scarf down. That's a problem
- To store, make sure you put them in an airtight package. If you leave them out, they will harden.

UPDATE: My friend Leia just recommended that you roll these in granulated sugar before baking. You'll have to add a full cup of flour if you want to be able to do this, but it will add crunchiness to the outside of the cookie and the cookies will keep their shape better. Thanks, Leia!
