Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare Your Baking Pan Line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on two sides for easy removal. Lightly spray the parchment with non-stick cooking spray. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and ensure the rack is positioned in the center.
- Step 2: Make the Brownie Layer In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, flour, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined – don’t overmix! Gently fold in the chocolate chips, then spread this batter evenly into your prepared pan.
- Step 3: Prepare the Cookie Dough In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla until smooth. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Step 4: Assemble the Brookies Dollop the cookie dough by spoonfuls over the brownie layer. Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, gently spread the cookie dough to cover the brownie layer completely. Don’t press too hard – you want to keep the layers distinct.
- Step 5: Bake to Perfection Bake your Fudgy Chewy Brookies for 25-30 minutes until the cookie layer is golden brown around the edges but still soft in the center. Remember, they’ll continue cooking slightly as they cool. For the best texture, err on the side of underbaking rather than overbaking.
- Step 6: Cool and Slice Allow the brookies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for at least 1 hour. Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift them out of the pan. For clean slices, use a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry between cuts. Cut into 16 squares and enjoy!
