A decadent dessert combining a fudgy chocolate brownie base with a chewy chocolate chip cookie topping, delivering the best of both classic treats in one delicious bar.

Ingredients

  • Brownie layer:
    • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
    • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 1/2 cup brown sugar
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Cookie layer:
    • 1 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 1/2 cup brown sugar
    • 1 large egg
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Make the brownie layer: In a bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt. Melt the butter and mix it in along with eggs and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  3. Prepare the cookie dough: In another bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, then mix in the flour, baking soda, and salt. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough over the brownie batter and gently spread to cover the top as evenly as possible without mixing the two layers.
  5. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the cookie layer is golden and a toothpick inserted in the brownie layer comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
  6. Allow to cool completely before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans to the brownie layer.
  • Swap semi-sweet chocolate chips for dark or white chocolate chips to vary the flavor.
  • Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top before baking for a flavor contrast.
  • Try adding a swirl of peanut butter or caramel between layers for richness.
  • Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or freeze up to 3 months.
  • Reheat briefly in the microwave for about 15 seconds to soften before serving.
