Description

These fudgy, chewy brookies are the ultimate combination of brownies and cookies, bringing together the best of both worlds. With a rich, chocolatey brownie layer and a chewy cookie topping, these brookies are irresistible for any dessert lover.


Ingredients

For the Brownie Layer:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

For the Cookie Layer:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the brownie layer: In a bowl, mix melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
  3. Sift in cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt. Fold in chocolate chips. Spread the brownie batter evenly in the prepared pan.
  4. Prepare the cookie layer: In another bowl, cream softened butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
  5. Sift in flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir in chocolate chips.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough over the brownie layer and gently spread it out.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cookie layer is golden and a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let cool completely before slicing into squares.

Notes

  • Let brookies cool completely before cutting for clean slices.
  • Use room-temperature ingredients for a smoother batter.
  • For extra fudginess, slightly underbake the brookies.
  • Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
