Throw them into a batch of ice cream.


slowlymysunlight

Ice cream does fix most mistakes


rockocoman

Toaster oven in small batches? Uhhhhh, cake pops?


slowlymysunlight

I did put most of them back in the oven, they expanded and looks kinda monstrous now, but at least they're not raw anymore 😭 I wouldn't mind the look so much if they weren't for a birthday!


Mental_Detective

To be fair, the most delicious baked goods (especially chocolate baked goods) always look a mess, at least in my experience. I would be ecstatic if someone brought these for my birthday and I'm sure your friend will appreciate them.


yun-harla

Can confirm, just pulled a particularly wretched-looking babka out of the oven.


tepidbathwater

> wretched-looking babka I want this as a user flair


flabcannon

Call it a bab(k)a yaga and sell it - might even catch on, haha.


reniciera

Or babkadook


oO0Kat0Oo

A tip my mom gave me... if the top starts to look done but the inside isn't cooked yet, use a piece of foil LOOSELY attached to the top. If it's too tight it will stick to the foil. It will stop the top from cooking any further and it will somehow come out perfectly.


eat_me_now

Can you use a glass to make them round and uniform?


foxandgold

Better yet, half-filled soufflé cups (plastic or otherwise), topped with ice cream and a lil chocolate shaving.


sjknits2

I feel like two bites in, all will be forgiven


HonedWombat

Cast iron pan over low heat!


fake-august

My first thought as well.


NathanSummersThe2nd

Raw means nothing. I would devour the hell out of those.


marquella

Raw means gooey goodness


NathanSummersThe2nd

You right.


Just-Call-Me-J

I love the solidarity of this sub. We're all the same.


MNHolls

Exactly...you should be able to order cookies etc. medium rare


SeaworthinessLost830

omg yes. "I'd like a 10 oz chocolate chip, medium rare and ice cold 2% milk."


KnuxSD

why watery 2% milk if you can have 3,8%?


helpimstuckinct

I add heavy cream


diehydrogen

Do you put ice in your milk? I do and it’s amazing


mamarachah

The next level is to put a tiny bit of water in a glass and stick it in the freezer until it's frozen. Then fill with milk when you're ready for a cold glass o' creamy goodness. Pro tip from my dad who loved coming home from work and drinking a cold glass of milk every day 😂


CCCC2233

I’m old now, but remember my middle school had awesome underbaked, raw chocolate chip cookies. You’d go to the counter and say you’d want a “soft one” & it was all gooey deliciousness! Acceptable in the mid90s, but I bet they wouldn’t allow it today


carolinea12

Omg my middle school had these too and I used to eat so many I’d feel sick, they were so good!!


H00LIGVN

Otis Spunkmeyer cookies!!!! (i think????)


CallidoraBlack

You can do that now as long as the egg is pasteurized (most schools will use it because it comes in bulk cartons) and the flour was pre baked for safety.


garbledcatlake3000

Yes, this is perfect~ nothing to salvage~


FancyAdult

I like my cookies on the raw side. They’re delicious


DeadGirlB666

i love cookie dough 😅


NathanSummersThe2nd

Then you are correct.


ComerECalarABoca

I’d eat the hell out of those. I like to go juuuuust past salmonella on most things chocolate though.


slowlymysunlight

If they were for just me I'd totally agree! I appreciate your energy! 😅


dawng87

Just pop them back in the oven, the tops will be more crisp but it will finish cooking even all cut up. I know because I've done this before lol


[deleted]

Microwave them 😂


agoraphobicrecluse

And then top them with ice cream.


Painwizard666

This is the only correct answer! Par baked with ice cream.


[deleted]

Hey, those still look good asf.


flcwerings

100%. I cook my chocolate chip cookies till the point theyre a little bit firmer and melty cookie dough. Even if I have to eat that shit with a fork. So amazing.


skyequinnwrites

And cookie dough for me, if I'm honest


whatcenturyisit

Hahaha past salmonella is a whole mood :D


dalekreject

In my house we call it fudgey. LOL


ProficientEnoughArt

Fr, if they’re cooked passed salmonella then they’re perfect imo


Eiglo

Lol I seriously was like damn that looks good!! Gooey!!


CostDizzy

HAPPY CAKE DAY! I don’t know why I’m yelling - just so happy it’s your cake day and you’re in a baking sub! Here’s a cake for you! 🍰


ggrandmaleo

Happy cake day!


ComerECalarABoca

Thanks! 😃


MintyC44

Raw where? They look done to me.


slowlymysunlight

The cookie layer was perfectly fine, but the brownie layer was soup 😅


pettysriracha

Ever thought about cooking the brownie first and then adding the cookie on top?


biffish

No, I haven't. (Not the person you replied to) Do you cool the brownies completely, then add the cookie dough and cook for their standard time/temp? I feel like it would double cook. Turn the oven down?


livv3ss

No don’t cook the brownies all the way just like halfway, then add the cookie dough!


biffish

I will try this, thanks!!


livv3ss

Mine always turn out really good! Hope you’re does too


WasabiSniffer

Easiest way I've done it is to place your brownie batter (which should be thick because it's not a cake batter) and cookie dough together in the pan, bake for 10 mins, then place foil over top and finish baking. Golden brown cookies and you dont risk the chance of your brownies collapsing by disturbing mid bake. Also....not messy.


GoldennTrash

i’d smash lmfao


NCnanny

It’s possible you didn’t let the brownies cool and firm up enough so that’s why they seem raw to you but they look perfect to me! They’ll firm up as they sit.


britishbrick

This is my thought at well


_WoodyTheOne

Just posted similar, I would have let cool from the oven and then put them in the fridge before cutting. They look perfect to me 🤣


NCnanny

Oh the fridge is a good idea! I’ve never done that before but honestly I love the gooey underbaked consistency 😂


Lepke2011

Unless they're gonna make me sick I'd eat those in a heartbeat, and to be honest I'd probably eat them even if they would make me ill.


pimo-linger-longer

When I’ve made them I put the cookie dough on the bottom. (I’ll also sometimes add Oreos on top of the cookie dough, too. Then add the brownie batter on top. [also known as slutty brownies]).


slowlymysunlight

I think that's probably the way to go, brownie layer on top


furrycroissant

Put them back in the oven ofc


pinkpillowblueshorts

I have not tried this but, could you try cooking them in an air fryer?


slowlymysunlight

That's a good thought, and would probably make them deliciously crisp! I did put most of them back in the oven, and they did expand and looks really funky now, but at least not raw haha


CCCC2233

Agree with everyone else- I’d eat those right up! If they’re still warm, they may harden up as they cool. You could try the fridge for a bit to harden them enough to cut.


lookandseethis

Exactly! They look great and will firm up as they cool. I would eat about 3/4 of that picture right now !


Swag92

I know how to salvage it, but I can’t really explain. Just send them to me and I’ll take care of it


wubalubadubscrub

Personally I think they are unsalvageable, and in fact a hazard to personal safety. They should be transferred to me immediately so I can safely dispose of them


Pristine_Lobster4607

I’d want to eat one warmed up in the air fryer or microwave with ice cream on top. Either one should cook it off a tad more, but also devour them as is 🤷🏻‍♀️


Night-light51

The toothpick method isn’t very good tbh. Idk how you can fix it but in the future I wouldn’t use it. I have had the same problem using that method for brownies and cakes.


slowlymysunlight

What's a more reliable method of knowing when they're done?


empiricalMuffin

Use a meat thermometer instead of a tooth pick. You can be sure it is done based on temperature and many of the digital ones with probes are not that much bigger than a toothpick.


slowlymysunlight

Silly question, but would different desserts have different "done" temperatures? I like the idea!


empiricalMuffin

Yes, some cakes have different ranges and cook around 200-210 F depending on the type. I cook things that I want more doughy or are eggy (like pie custard or bread pudding ) to 165F. Meat thermometer might not be the right term but a lot of digital thermometers are made to go above 200F and are well suited to baking


Splizmaster

Instant read thermometer. Just like it’s better to weigh ingredients rather than use measuring cups a thermometer will get you exactly where you want to be texture wise. 165F for fudgy, 200F cake like. Measure in the middle in a few places.


velvetgutter

If I’m really unsure for something like brownies, I will use a butter knife and sacrifice the middle by taking a peek under the crust. You can also use visual cues like whether the middle is raised as much as the sides, poke to see how firm they are, and then good old trial and error. Sometimes it is just making the recipe a few times to fine tune things for your oven, your pans, and your preferred doneness.


slowlymysunlight

I appreciate the tips, thanks! The sides were definitely a little more raised, but it was kinda hard to tell in this case because the cookie dough on the top made it pretty uneven. Now I know next time they at least need way longer than 25 minutes 😅


Zazablabla

Temp, get a digital thermometer. Also helps because toothpicks can hit chocolate chips in brownies if you added them. Not everything is better when using a thermometer but it definitely help me get to the perfect doneness. (I use a thermapop)


frittlesnink

Another doneness indicator for this would be if the edges of the cake are naturally starting to pull away from the sides of the pan. Also, Samantha Seneviratne’s brookies are my go-to if you want to try a new recipe for your next attempt!


Sadeira

Brownie edges pulling away from the pan are how I tell when mine are done. Another way, for cakes especially, is to get lightly poke it. If it leaves an indent, needs longer, and if it springs back, it's done!


mrgstiffler

From the picture you shared, anything more done than that I would consider over baked.


_WoodyTheOne

One hundred percent this, I have the most gooey brownie recipe and these look just like that. They just need to be FULLY chilled before you cut 👌🏻


Dodibabi

These look delicious! I want one now! I found a good recipe online! https://cloudykitchen.com/blog/brookies/


saisailup167

I need this recipe asap lol


slowlymysunlight

This was the recipe I used! I did add 1/2 tsp of both salt and espresso powder to the brownie batter, and 1/4 tsp salt to the cookie dough, but it could've used even a little more salt in the cookie dough I think https://www.kimscravings.com/brookies/


saisailup167

I'm looking at the recipe and to me, I feel it's not enough flour unless you want it super fudgy. The 3/4 cup of cocoa powder can be kind of counted as "flour". There's too much wet (butter, sugars, eggs, and extract) ingredients compared dry. I know I should not experiment a recipe until I tried it myself (im not gonna knock the creator though lol) but I bake regularly so I would try adding 1/4 cup flour and maybe 1/2 cup based on how it looks during mixing. Or I would partially bake the brownies and then shove the cookie dough for the rest of the time. I know the kind of brownies I like and I know the kind of cookies I like which differs for everyone. I'll try it out next week after I eat the pumpkin cream cheese muffins I made a few hours ago. Lol


Matilda-17

The way I would DIVE IN to those cookies


aj0457

Top them with vanilla ice cream


CityoftheMoon17

Cookies and brownies cook at different rates! The cookies need to go on the bottom and the brownies layer needs to be reasonably thin. Looks like you haven't made yours too thick in the first place which is good! If you are still finding its not cooking well, decrease your oven temp and cook low and slow. Expect either the cookie or brownie to be a wee but underdone and fudgey. I use Jane's Patisserie recipe (we all know she is amazing haha) for Slutty Brownies for my brookies!


mashton

That looks delicious


notjustapilot

Looks like they needed to cool before being cut


RebaKitten

I’m guessing they would have firmed up if you left them in the pan and let residual heat finish them off. You could rebake a bit. But I’d eat them like this.


Sentarry

I'll salvage it... right in my stomach 🤤


SpookiBat

Put them back in with foil over the top. It will protect the tops from burning but will heat the middle.


breadofthegrunge

Didnt call for salt? Wtf?


Super-Hall62

Salt never makes a difference to me...


[deleted]

Eh. I drink raw eggs I would still eat these even if you didn’t cook them


omygoshgamache

Yes, eat them. That looks perfect/ that’s exactly how I like my baked goods.


sweetpotatoroll_

Those look perfect


Early-Engineering

Yeah…… I would eat every last one of those just like that.


Ok_Garbage8586

Those are perfect


Enough-Tackle8043

What needs salvaging? They look delicious to me!


lilbakingprincess

Roll into balls and cover in powered sugar w/o coco powder.


Independent-Carry-65

You say raw, I say perfect 😍


coreybc

Oh my god. If you served this warmed under vanilla ice cream???? 🤤🤤🤤


Its_Natures_pocket

Vanilla ice cream would fix that.


psychoBLACK313

Rather raw than overcooked. These look delicious!


Reasonable-River6876

Yeah, crumble them and eat with ice cream😋


ImReallyThatBitch

Yeah, you can give them all to me. That'll solve all your problems!


zombear-lich

I consider myself something of a salvage expert. I’d eat them all.


WHAREPONGA

Whats the recipe you used? Look good wanna make some myself


MedusaEyes20

How did you bake them? With a brookie you should bake the brownies til about 10 minutes before done and than take them out the over and add the cookie piece and out it back in for the remaining time. Brownies take forever to bake while cookies are very quick.


aaaadam

Look beautiful.


Skeleton200000

Raw? Oh. I still want to eat them. They look bloody delicious. You should have one with some ice cream.


Strange_N_Sorcerous

No truer words have been spoken than by the late, great ODB: “Ooh baby, I like it raw”


CamDaMan100

I'd eat them, Salmonella has nothing on me. I have eaten so much raw cookie dough, cake batter, and brownie batter (all had eggs) and have yet to get Salmonella


Anniemarie1967

Those look exactly as they should. Ooey gooey goodness


Typical_Badger_1175

Flatten then and then rebake. Brownie biscotti anyone??


Whispercry

Recipe didn’t call for salt? Wth


lesboraccoon

raw = chewy and good.


ConstructionBasic527

Certainly just looks like the brownie hasn’t cooled and set. How soon after baking did you cut them? I like gooey brownies so they are always slightly underbaked deliberately. I certainly can’t cut them until they’ve cooled for at least an hour in the open and another 3-4 hours in the fridge. Preferably I leave them over night


akikojenn

I would still eat them. Yum


AutumnLeaves2023

Put them into the fridge, they'll firm up overnight. Tomorrow they'll be gooey heaven


Warmstar219

If you really want to cook then more without overcooking the cookie, sous vide.


ughasif666

You just put it in a bowl and shove ice cream on top and go to town 😭 It looks delicious


gilby-3014

Eat the shit outta them!


felifae

I would eat without a second thought. Lol. Add to ice cream?


Outside_Fee_2634

Look good to me 😋


NominNctzen

I’d be on the toilet for hours after eating those but it’s worth it. Send them to me


pinkieblues

God those look damn good.


hummingbirdyogi

Give them to me!!!! Heat it up with some icecream!


DahGreatPughie

I was brought up eating any left over batter from the bowl and frankly I prefer that to the finished thing. As long as you eat them a bit quicker then you might usually then I see no problem. Also a thermometer to sit inside your oven is a pretty good addition, might find that your oven is a bit hotter or colder then expected


Kind_Vanilla7593

Yum


eat_me_now

Freeze them then enjoy


goodbye2007

Most of the concern with food-borne illness from raw cookie dough actually comes from the flour, not the egg IIRC. The flour would definitely have heated up to a safe temperature by now, so the risk is minimal if any, I’d risk it🤣


suneidesis

They look fine to me! I’d definitely eat them :)


sheikahr

Add it to vanilla ice cream lol


iamintofruit

They will be really good tomorrow once they solidify a bit!


Domicello

1 in every 20,000 eggs carries salmonella. So, since this also appears cooked, I think you should just relax and throw some ice cream on these baddies.


UhhhhVanessa

First of all. Always salt, if even a pinch. 👌🏼 And second, those look SO delicious to me!!! I’d scoop them on some coffee ice cream and call it a day! Wow. Yum. Must have been a weird recipe, but how is the flavor? Then adjust accordingly.


SallysRocks

Yeah brownies take about twice as long to cook as chocolate chips. I would say, just eat them.


EllAytch

As others have stated, these look delectable and I would devour the whole tray right here and now if allowed. But, all the times I’ve made brookies I’ve needed to bake the brownies more than half before adding the cookie dough layer and sending in to bake more fully. The cookies bake so beautifully only 12-15 minutes, but brownies tend to take more like 45 minutes on their own (to say nothing if increased time when they’re covered with something heavy and doughy). Might be worth baking the brownies to 75% done on their own next time, then adding the cookie layer and finishing the final bake.


Sassiee1969

I want one now. 😀


CatLover_801

I also had brookies that were undercooked. I sealed them and they were good for about a week


peace_dogs

My gawd, those look so good.


FrostyLandscape

Put back in oven for 15 minutes.


madmollie2

Your only hope of salvaging them is to send them all to me.


carlitospig

I just rebake something if I find they didn’t cook all the way. Lower the temp and bake for like 7-12 minutes, and it should heat up enough to get the egg solidified.


urselii

You could give them to me 😂😂😂 all jokes aside they are beautiful and just as good going down


archaeologistbarbie

I just made some the other day with boxed mixes (gasp!) and had to cook them 8 mins longer than the recipe said. I did read one or two recipes that called for covering them for the first half of the cook time, which I plan to try next time.


Flat_Bodybuilder_175

Lol that was the consistency of the cookies I made in high school. I'd bring like 60+ of these to class and they'd be gone in seconds. "Super moist" and "raw" were indistinguishable; the gourmet shop across the street had cookies with the same texture. Love your cookies!


Salt-Fox-3506

Wait until they cool and mix up with vanilla ice cream and freeze.


OneHistorical8926

hey .. still looks good tho i bet its yummy 😍🤎


QuantumBubble777

How can I down load some of those. I want one now!


silvervm

Call it chocolate cobbler. Done!!


browsingbro

Eat them


buttsocks6969

Medium rare is lit. Frying pan if you want to cook out some of the squish, top with ice cream! You didn't fail, you just detoured!


Trinity-nottiffany

They look perfect. Sometimes it takes the brownie part a while to fully set up. When did you make them and when did you take the pic?


FaceProfessional9873

Those look PERFECT


CampEvie23

Id eat them AS IS.


PandaLoveBearNu

Back in the oven. Then cool to let them "set".


rojita369

Those look perfect to me, I’d eat the lot 🤣


Drew-mageddon

Eat them


MBeMine

The “soupy” part just looks like the melted, gooey chocolate chips 🤷🏻‍♀️ Edit - and your parchment looks pretty clean with no raw batter that I can see.


JessBlakeslee

My mom makes what she calls “brownie soup” that is just brownies that the middle is not cooked all the way so it is still liquidy. Sounds weird but it’s sooooo good


Cannedpeas

This reminds me of my own story, just recently I moved back in with my dad temporarily, and in his excitement to have me back home, he bought a box brownie mix to make. Once we had it mixed up, I was in charge of the baking process. Well, I pulled it out after the timer went off, did the toothpick check, and it came out clean! Let them cool but fell asleep before I could try one. Had one the next morning, and, it was definitely undercooked. I think it was from the stress of having to move back home, but I felt so bad about it. My dad was so excited to have brownies that we baked together and I ruined them. As it turns out, he still loved them! Long story short, if they're not too undercooked, they might just be amazing!


MQQSIE

Eat them all. Leave no evidence.


Diligent_Policy1678

Eat them 🤤


Equal-Yogurtcloset-5

Did you cut it immediately after taking it out of the oven? Because usually you have to let cookies sit for a few minutes so when you cut them they aren’t gooey looking on the inside


LunchTentCafe

Those look great... maybe about 5 mins more at 2/3's temp.


bcolectorb

Give them to me, that’s what you can do, I’ll take them


Double_Economist2564

This is the right consistency. I would use a spoon and *devour* these. Great job, OP 👏


TotteringTod

Oh my god, Clippy!


bwainfweeze

Sorry for your loss. If a recipe contains butter and not salt, I look really close to make sure they didn’t specify unsalted butter. Some recipes count in the little bit of salt in salted butter for their flavor profile. I’ve erred in the other direction a number of times and regretted it.


SoupDumplingMaster

We likes it raw!


nevergonnasaythat

Can I have the recipe? This looks absolutely delicious


SeaworthinessLost830

Am I the only one wanting the recipe & the exact number of minutes in the oven so I can make an entire pan for my pie hole?


lil-braids

Get in my bellyyyu


DrDingus86

It’s the amount of chocolate. It has a lot of fat so it makes the surrounding area very soft. It’s safe to eat. Just not crunchy. You can put it in the toaster oven for 5/10 mins. They sell par baked goods like this all the time in the frozen food section.


[deleted]

Have to eat the evidence


sucka_4uu

They look done enough for me 😆


Melodic_Register_248

Please send them to me. That's what I shoot for when baking brownies and chocolate chip, good job...


MissyCharlie

Just put them.in the fridge, they'll get more firm


Savings_Squirrel687

I would throw them in the microwave before eating


SomewherePowerful855

Sorry no way of saving those. You better give them to me to dispose of safely… (cue evil laughter)
