Brookies are the ultimate mashup of brownies and cookies, combining fudgy brownie layers and chewy cookie dough for a decadent treat.

Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (for brownie layer)

1 cup granulated sugar (for brownie layer)

2 large eggs (for brownie layer)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for brownie layer)

1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for brownie layer)

1/3 cup cocoa powder (for brownie layer)

1/4 teaspoon salt (for brownie layer)

1/4 teaspoon baking powder (for brownie layer)

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (for cookie dough layer)

1/4 cup granulated sugar (for cookie dough layer)

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed (for cookie dough layer)

1 large egg (for cookie dough layer)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for cookie dough layer)

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (for cookie dough layer)

1/2 teaspoon baking soda (for cookie dough layer)

1/4 teaspoon salt (for cookie dough layer)

1 cup chocolate chips (for cookie dough layer)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. For the brownie layer: In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Stir until smooth and combined. Set aside.
  3. For the cookie dough layer: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Gradually add the flour, baking soda, and salt, mixing just until incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Spread the brownie batter evenly in the prepared pan. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough over the brownie layer.
  5. Use a knife or spatula to swirl the cookie dough into the brownie batter, creating a marbled effect.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean (it may have a few moist crumbs).
  7. Allow the brookies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.

Notes

  • Store leftover brookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.
  • You can freeze brookies for up to 3 months by wrapping individual pieces in plastic wrap and storing them in a zip-top bag.
  • To reheat brookies, microwave them for 10-15 seconds or warm them in the oven at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes.
