Ingredients
Scale
- Brownie Batter:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- Cookie Dough:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the brownie batter: In a mixing bowl, blend the melted butter with sugar. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing until smooth. Stir in cocoa, flour, salt, and baking powder until just combined.
- Make the cookie dough: In a separate bowl, cream together softened butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Gradually mix in flour, baking soda, and salt. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Assemble the Brookies: Take a spoonful of each batter and roll together into a ball. Place on the prepared sheet and flatten slightly.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges are set but the middle remains soft. Allow to cool on the sheet before moving to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Texture Tip: For gooey brownies and soft cookies, be careful not to overbake.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Customize: Mix in nuts or white chocolate chips into either dough for an extra flavor twist!
