Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies
Copycat Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies Recipe with their bright, fun candy topping makes a hit at children’s’ parties. But, the best thing about this brownie recipe is it’s FAST, EASY, and decadent! Just one bowl and no mixer for the base! You will love making these brownies, especially if you enjoyed the original Cosmic Brownies.

If you’ve been following Call Me PMc for a while, you know that I have a series that I test and review Pound Cakes. I’ve also have a collection of Cobblers. However, cobblers vary so much, it’s really difficult to compare them. Therefore, I test, eat and share those recipes. This year I started testing and comparing brownie recipes including the classic Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies.
Here are more brownies that we love. Click on the photo for the recipe.






Brownies, brownies, and more!
Coincidently, Cosmic Brownies are my oldest sons’ very favorite snack. I needed to prove to myself him that I could make a brownie just as good. Copycat Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies Recipe are just as good. They are phenomenal. The base has both melted chocolate and cocoa. It’s rich and dense. They’re not cakey, but they’re also not chewy like some brownies are. They’re just a nice dense, creamy texture reminiscent of Cosmic Brownies.
Of course, Cosmic Brownies wouldn’t be Cosmic Brownies without the thin layer for chocolate frosting and candy-coatedย chips, now would they? I found candy-coated chips at Amazon and Walmart. These candy-coated chips are a key part of recreating the look and taste of Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies.

Recipe for the Chocolate Frosting is here and more recipes are below.
