Ingredients:

  • 1 box (18 oz) Premium Fudgy Brownie Mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.5 cup vegetable oil
  • 0.25 cup water
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 0.5 tsp espresso powder
  • 2 tbsp full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 0.25 tsp fine sea salt
  • 12 oz dark chocolate melting wafers
  • 1 tsp coconut oil
  • 1 tsp flaky sea salt for topping

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven and prepare the brownie mix using the eggs, vegetable oil, water, vanilla, and espresso powder according to the fudgy instructions.
  2. Bake the brownies in a parchment-lined 9x9 inch pan, removing them 2 minutes before the recommended time to ensure a moist, underdone center.
  3. While still slightly warm, crumble the brownies into a food processor or large bowl.
  4. Add the softened cream cheese and fine sea salt; process or mix until the crumbs form a dense, cohesive dough.
  5. Using a small cookie scoop, portion the dough and roll into 1-inch balls. Place on a parchment-lined tray and chill for 15 minutes.
  6. Melt the chocolate wafers and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  7. Using a dipping tool or fork, submerge each chilled brownie ball into the chocolate, let the excess drip off, and return to the parchment paper.
  8. Immediately sprinkle with flaky sea salt and allow to set at room temperature until the shell is firm.
