Brownie Cookies (Four Chocolates)

Preheat oven to 375ºF.

Sift flour, soda and salt. Set aside.

In a heavy mixer, cream butter, sugars and cocoa. Add pudding mix. Blend in eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla and Hershey’s syrup. Blend in dry ingredients and when almost incorporated, add chocolate chips. Mix.

Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough or use an 1/8 cup scoop (small Pampered Chef scoop). Roll into balls and flatten slightly on a baking mat or parchment-lined cookie sheet (they won’t spread on their own).

Bake at 375ºF for 11 minutes. Cool slightly on baking sheet and remove to a cooling rack until completely cooled. Store in an airtight container.

Makes about 3 ½ dozen cookies.
