Method

Brownie Layer

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brownie Base

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.

  2. 2

    Melt Butter

    In a medium saucepan, melt 1 cup of unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in 1.5 cups of granulated sugar and 0.5 cups of brown sugar until well combined.

  3. 3

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Add 3 large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in 1 tsp of vanilla extract.

  4. 4

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 0.5 cups of unsweetened cocoa powder, and 0.5 tsp of salt.

  5. 5

    Mix Brownie Batter

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips.

  6. 6

    Bake Brownie Layer

    Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

  1. 7

    While the brownie layer is baking, in a large bowl, cream together 0.5 cup of unsalted butter, 0.5 cups of granulated sugar, and 0.5 cups of brown sugar until light and fluffy.

  2. 8

    Add 1 large egg and 1 tsp of vanilla extract to the creamed mixture and mix until smooth.

  3. 9

    In another bowl, whisk together 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 0.5 tsp of baking soda, and 0.5 tsp of salt.

  4. 10

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips.

  5. 11

    Once the brownie layer is done baking, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Spread the cookie dough evenly over the brownie layer.

  6. 12

    Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the cookie layer is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

  7. 13

    Allow the Brookie to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cool, use the parchment overhang to lift it out of the pan. Cut into squares and enjoy!
