Walnut Fudge Brownie Cookie (single serve)
If you haven’t heard of them by now, Crumbl is a cookie company based out of Utah, who makes large, delicious cookies inspired by popular flavors, foods, and desserts. Their cookies are mouthwatering and something you might crave every week. While I love a good Crumbl cookie and respect the company, it is not reasonable to be buying them every week. Thus, I had to come up with my own copycat cookie to satisfy my craving.
Enter the Walnut Fudge Brownie Cookie. This cookie is a flavor that Crumbl offered a few weeks ago and I was lucky enought to try it. It tastes just like a brownie, but is softer and melts more in your mouth like a cookie. Since I loved the cookie so much, I decided to take my brownie cookie recipe and recreate this flavor on my own.
the details of the walnut fudge brownie cookie
So what exactly is this Walnut Fudge Brownie Cookie? Well, it is a chocolate chip brownie cookie, topped with hot fudge and sprinkled with fresh walnuts. To add to it, the cookie is bigger than a hockey puck and is perfect for one to four people. The chocolate chips make the cookie melt in your mouth and make the cookie every chocolate lover’s dream. The brownie base gives the cookie crisp edges with the most gooey inside, that crumbles over time, but in the most least frustrating way. The hot fudge adds to the chocolaty goodness and help recreate the actual flavor of a walnut fudge brownie. Finally, the walnuts add the perfect nutty flavor and crunch that make them the “cherry on top.”
All in all, I think this cookie is perfect as is. It comes together quickly, helps satisfy your dessert cravings with little mess, and helps save you money, while providing you with that delicious Crumbl flavor. If you wanted to make some changes to the cookie, you could add a caramel topping and sub the walnuts with pecans. You could also switch out the chocolate chips or pb chips or white chocolate, then switch out the nuts with peanuts, reeses, or more white chocolate. Substitutions or no substitutions, this cookie is bound to be delicious.
