This playful twist on the classic cookie brownie recipe doesn't take long to make and it calls for classic baking ingredients, plus a boozy addition. As the recipe describes, "Since the wine is reduced, you can use any type of dry red wine you have on hand, including the cheap stuff—or even mix a few varieties to use up your almost-empties." The result is a cookie that it is said to be full of bold red wine flavor and a chewy, satisfying texture. Two cups of dry red wine go into this recipe, along with all-purpose flour, baking soda and baking powder, plus a pinch of salt, eggs, roughly chopped [semi-sweet chocolate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mulled-wine-chocolate), and a few other key additions.
