Based loosely on Chocolate Brownie Cookies from the Cookies! A Cookie Lover’s Collection ©1994 Cy DeCosse Incorporated.
Makes roughly 12-30 cookies depending on size. You can make them into 1 inch balls or multiple inches wide piles. Very crumbly and delicious any time, especially warm out of the oven.
Mix in this order:
1/4 cup oil
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 cup flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
Bake at 350°F for 9 minutes.
I think this is much better as raw batter than baked cake. Therefore, the recipe is quartered – closer to a single or double sized snack than a whole cake.
However, flour is a raw ingredient which if contaminated could make you sick, so eat at your own risk.
Based on the Chocolate Olive Oil Cake recipe from Smitten Kitchen. Head there for the full recipe, glaze, and baking directions.
