Copycat Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies

semi-sweet chocolate chips (divided)

tbsp unsalted butter ((one stick))

sugar

eggs (room temperature)

all-purpose flour

milk

container chocolate fudge icing

mini M&Ms

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Prepare a 9x13 pan by spraying with nonstick spray OR lining the pan with parchment paper.

In a large microwaveable bowl, melt the butter and one cup of chocolate chips on high for one minute. Remove from the microwave and stir together. If there are still some chocolate chips not melted, continue microwaving in 30-second increments until just a few chips remain. When you do the final stir those last few chips will melt.

Add the sugar first and then the eggs (you don’t want to scramble your eggs!). Whisk to combine.

Next add the flour, cocoa powder, salt and milk and wish together until well-combined.

Stir in the remaining one cup of chocolate chips.

Pour mixture into the prepared pan.

Bake for 22-25 minutes or until a knife or cake tester comes out clean. Remove from the oven and cool completely.

Once cooled frost with chocolate frosting. If your frosting is a little stiff to spread, microwave for 10 seconds.

Sprinkle with mini M&amp;Ms as many or as little as you want.

Slice, serve and enjoy!

Rich and decadent cosmic brownies with homemade chocolate ganache 
Recipe: https://www.cookedbyjulie.com/cosmic-brownies/

Cosmic Brownies are a fun, family-favorite dessert. Chewy, rich, and topped with ganache and bright sprinkles, these brownies are a homemade take on the classic that’s way better than store-bought.

Cosmic Brownies Recipe

natural unsweetened cocoa powder

butter ((1 1/2 sticks), melted)

tsp baking powder

rainbow chip sprinkles (if desired)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with foil and lightly spray with baking spray; set aside.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until fully incorporated after each addition.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, natural unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. With the mixer on low speed, alternate adding the dry ingredients and whole milk to the butter mixture, mixing just until combined.

Remove the bowl from the stand and pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan. The batter will be thick, so use a rubber spatula to spread it into an even layer. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 18–25 minutes. Be cautious not to overbake to prevent dry brownies. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan.

While the brownies are cooling, prepare the ganache. In a 2-cup glass measuring cup, combine semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, and heavy cream. Microwave on half power for one minute, stir, then repeat. Stir the mixture until all the chocolate chips are melted and the ganache is smooth. Beat for 1 minute, then pour it over the cooled brownies. Spread evenly and sprinkle with rainbow chip sprinkles, if desired. Serve warm or cold.

These are absolutely delicious, truly one of the only homemade brownie recipes that are worth making from scratch! They've made it on my holiday treat trays for the past few years and everybody raves about them. The only thing I do every single time is substituting the milk in the final steps of batter making for a strongly brewed coffee (or even instant coffee dissolved in warm water in a pinch); it doesn't make the brownies taste like coffee, it just makes the chocolate flavour stronger. If you'd like to just use milk as the recipe states, I'd recommend making sure to season your brownies well (don't skimp on the salt, this recipe can take up to 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon of salt, if using unsalted butter, in my opinion). I've also done a peanut butter ganache on the top of these using 1 cup peanut butter chips + 1/4 cup peanut butter for a Reese's brownie in the past that was also well enjoyed. Just such a delicious base brownie recipe, whether you're sticking to the Cosmic Brownie aesthetic or not :)

My kids absolutely loved these brownies! This has been by far most the best fudge brownie recipe that my kids enjoyed. Thank you for sharing another fantastic recipe with us.

These are so nostalgic for me that making them myself is so much fun! Of course, homemade taste better than store bought always!

Oh my goodness! All the nostalgic feels! &lt;3 LOVED finding these in my lunchbox as a kid! Love having this recipe now. Knowing what is actually in these is so empowering! Thank you!

My kids love these, so when I saw this recipe, I knew I had to make them! My kids loved them! Taste so much better than the store bought ones!

I made these yesterday and they are amazing! I halved the recipe and cooked for 21 minutes, but besides that I didn't make any other changes and they turned out exactly as pictured.  I did take your advice of putting the brownies topped with the ganache in the fridge for just a short time (about 10 minutes- I didn't want cold brownies) and the ganache was not runny at all and stuck well to the top of each brownie. In fact, I was so happy with the consistency of the ganache that I think it will be my go-to recipe for chocolate frosting in the future. I will definitely be making these brownies again- probably very soon as they are almost gone! Thank you for the great recipe!

Rich, fudgy, and covered with bright little sprinkles, these homemade cosmic brownies are delicious. They taste just like those coveted lunchbox treats, only better!

These homemade Cosmic Brownies feature ultra fudgy brownies topped with a simple chocolate ganache frosting and candy-coated chocolate chips. Just like your favorite store-bought brownies, but better!

Homemade Cosmic Brownies

light brown sugar ((100 grams))

eggs (at room temperature)

egg yolk (at room temperature)

cocoa powder ((90 grams))

all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled (125 grams))

semisweet chocolate (finely chopped (226 grams))

light corn syrup

heavy cream ((120 ml))

Rainbow candy coated chocolate chips, mini m&m's, or sprinkles

To make the brownies: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with foil or parchment paper, making sure to leave some overhang for easy removal. If using foil, spray it well with nonstick cooking spray, and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined. Then whisk in the eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until fully combined.

Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, and salt and continue whisking until just combined, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Scoop the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it around into one even layer. Bake for 27 to 33 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean with just a few moist crumbs.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.

To make the ganache: Place the chopped chocolate and corn syrup into a large heatproof bowl. Set aside.

Heat the heavy cream in a medium pot and bring to a simmer on the stove (or heat in the microwave for 45 seconds to 1 minute).

Pour the simmering cream over the chocolate and let it sit for 3 minutes.

Mix with a rubber spatula or spoon until the mixture is smooth and well combined. If any chocolate clumps remain, microwave in 20 to 30-second increments until melted and smooth.

Use a spatula or spoon to spread the chocolate ganache over the cooled brownies.

Sprinkle with rainbow candy coated chocolate chips, mini M&amp;Ms, or sprinkles. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours to allow the ganache to set before serving. Cut into squares when ready to serve!

Made this , the texture was spot on the brownie was spot on the ganache was very bitter recipe was followed exactly. I used Ghirardelli semi sweet baking chocolate. Should i use a different chocolate or perhaps milk chocolate? 

I have made this recipe at LEAST 6 times in the past eight weeks. In fact, I made it for the first time the night before my daughter was born. It was the perfect distraction from the contractions :) 

My family and friends love it and have requested it multiple times. This recipe couldn't be easier and results in the most elevated brownie ever! 

Thanks Danielle for creating such a winner!

I made these brownies for a friend of my son since kindergarten.  She is 20 years old today.  She took a cosmic brownie in her lunch box every day from kindergarten to high school.  These brownies are a gourmet version on the original.  They are easy to make and better than the original.  

These are PERFECT! So easy and turned out amazing. Thank you!! 

I made these fot a space-themed party and they were a hit! Basically tasted like a fresh yummy version of the storebought ones. Sweet, chocolatey, and fudgy! They all got eaten and I was asked to make them again sometime. (I just used some small spherical rainbow sprinkles btw since I didn't have candy-coated chocolates, and it still worked well)
