Brookies

Brookies combine the best of both desserts — rich, fudgy brownie layers swirled with golden, chewy chocolate chip cookie dough. It’s the ultimate treat when you can’t decide between two favorites.

Ingredients

  • All-Purpose Flour: 2 1/4 cups (divided)
  • Unsalted Butter: 1 cup (softened for cookie dough, melted for brownie batter)
  • Granulated Sugar: 1 cup (1/2 cup for each dough)
  • Brown Sugar: 1 cup (for cookie dough)
  • Eggs: 3 large (1 for cookie, 2 for brownie)
  • Vanilla Extract: 2 teaspoons (1 for each dough)
  • Baking Soda: 1/2 teaspoon
  • Salt: 1/2 teaspoon
  • Cocoa Powder: 1/2 cup (unsweetened)
  • Chocolate Chips: 1 1/2 cups (1 cup for cookie, 1/2 cup for brownie)
  • Dark Chocolate (optional): 4 oz, chopped (in brownie batter)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13 inch pan with parchment paper.
  2. Combine Ingredients: For cookie dough: cream softened butter with both sugars, add egg and vanilla, then stir in flour, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips.
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: For brownie layer: whisk melted butter with sugar and cocoa powder, then add eggs and vanilla. Stir in flour, salt, and chocolate.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Press cookie dough into the pan, then spread brownie batter over the top.
  5. Cook to Perfection: Bake for 30–35 minutes, until the top is set and a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
  6. Finishing Touches: Let cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then lift out and let cool completely.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Slice into squares and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Chill doughs for 15–20 minutes before layering for best texture.
  • Let cool fully before slicing for clean bars.
  • Store in airtight container to maintain softness.
