Brownie Cookies

I found a brownie mix in the pantry and thought...hmmm...this could be an experiment!  So I looked for brownie cookie recipes on AllRecipes.com, and found one that seemed easy.  The reviews said the cookies were great, no problems, only a couple mentioned the cookies being too liquid-y.  Mine turned out way too liquid-y, and so I'm thinking it has to do with the brownie mix??  I can't think of any other reason why some people get success and some don't.  My solution?  Add self-rising flour, and bingo!  Cookies that don't go limp.

Brownie Cookies

adapted from: All Recipes

Ingredients:
1 box chocolate brownie mix
1 large box instant vanilla pudding
3 eggs
3/8 cup oil
1 cup self-rising flour

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets, using butter or Crisco for best results.
In a medium bowl, stir together the brownie mix and dry instant pudding. Add the oil and eggs; mix until well blended.  Add flour.  Scoop the dough onto the pan, about walnut sized. Place the cookies 2 inches apart onto the cookie sheet.
Bake for 6 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until firm. Cool for 30 seconds, then remove from pan immediately.  Place on wire rack to cool more before serving.

This entire blog is counterproductive to my dieting, but I'm going to follow anyway! Helps me that I don't have an oven right now. :)
