Instructions
Preheat & Prepare the Pan
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or grease it lightly.
Make the Brownie Batter
- In a bowl, whisk together melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
- Sift in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder, mixing just until combined.
- Pour the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan.
Prepare the Cookie Dough
- In a separate bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy.
- Mix in egg and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add flour, baking soda, and salt, stirring until combined.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
Layer the Cookie Dough Over Brownie Batter
- Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough over the brownie batter.
- Gently spread or swirl slightly for a marbled effect.
Bake the Brookies
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let cool in the pan before slicing.
Notes
- For Gooier Brookies: Bake for slightly less time and let them cool before cutting.
- For Crispier Edges: Use a 9×9-inch pan for thinner brookies and bake 2-3 minutes longer.
- For a Nutty Twist: Add chopped pecans or walnuts to the cookie dough.
- Make Ahead: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
