Ingredients
🍫 For the Brownie Layer:
-
1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted
-
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
-
2 large eggs
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
1/3 cup (30g) unsweetened cocoa powder
-
1/2 cup (65g) all-purpose flour
-
1/4 tsp salt
-
1/4 tsp baking powder
🍪 For the Cookie Layer:
-
1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
-
1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar
-
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
-
1 large egg
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
1 1/4 cups (160g) all-purpose flour
-
1/2 tsp baking soda
-
1/4 tsp salt
-
1 cup (175g) chocolate chips
Instructions
🔹 Step 1: Prepare the Brownie Batter
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter and sugar until smooth.
-
Add eggs and vanilla, whisk again until well combined.
-
Sift in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix just until no dry streaks remain.
-
Set aside.
🔹 Step 2: Prepare the Cookie Dough
-
In another bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Add the egg and vanilla, beat until combined.
-
Stir in flour, baking soda, and salt until a soft dough forms.
-
Fold in the chocolate chips. Set aside.
🔹 Step 3: Assemble
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang.
-
Pour and spread the brownie batter evenly into the bottom of the pan.
-
Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough evenly over the brownie layer. Gently spread or flatten to cover most of the top (some brownie peeking through is fine!).
🔹 Step 4: Bake
-
Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
-
Allow to cool completely in the pan before slicing into bars.
Tips for Ultimate Brookies
-
Don’t overbake: Slightly underdone gives you that gooey, fudgy texture.
-
Chill before cutting: For cleaner slices, refrigerate brookies for 30 minutes before cutting.
-
Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temp for up to 4 days or freeze for longer freshness.
