Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Batter

  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup (35g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup (65g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Cookie Dough

  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups (150g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (175g) chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Brownie Batter: In a medium bowl, combine melted butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, gently folding until well combined.
  2. Spread Brownie Batter in Pan: Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking pan. Pour the prepared brownie batter into the pan and spread it evenly using a spatula to cover the bottom completely.
  3. Prepare the Cookie Dough: In a separate bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt, then gradually mix into the wet ingredients. Fold in chocolate chips evenly.
  4. Top Brownie Batter with Cookie Dough: Dollop the cookie dough over the brownie batter in the baking pan. Use a spatula or clean hands to gently spread and flatten the cookie dough layer evenly over the top of the brownie batter.
  5. Bake Until Set: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pan in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the cookie dough layer is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but no raw batter.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes. Once cooled, cut into squares and serve.

Notes

  • For an extra chocolatey brownie, add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips to the brownie batter.
  • You can substitute the chocolate chips in the cookie dough with chopped nuts or white chocolate chips for variation.
  • Make sure not to overbake to keep the brownies fudgy and the cookie dough soft.
  • Allow the dessert to cool completely before cutting to maintain clean edges.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
