Description

Brookies are the ultimate dessert mash-up, combining the chewy, fudgy decadence of brownies with the rich, buttery bite of chocolate chip cookies. These easy-to-make bars are perfect for when you can’t choose between your two favorite treats! They’re baked in one pan for minimal fuss and maximum satisfaction, making them a crowd-pleaser at parties, bake sales, or just a sweet weeknight indulgence.

Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Brownie Layer

  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup (40g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup (65g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Cookie Layer

  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup (100g) light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups (160g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 inch (20x20cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal, and lightly grease it.
  2. Make the Brownie Batter: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined. Sift in cocoa powder, flour, and salt. Stir just until incorporated. Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  3. Make the Cookie Dough: In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract. Add flour, baking soda, and salt; mix until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Assemble the Brookies: Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough over the brownie batter in the pan, then gently spread or press to cover as much of the brownie layer as you can. It’s okay if some brownie shows through.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let the brookies cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment overhang. Cut into squares and enjoy.

Notes

  • For neater squares, let the brookies cool completely before slicing.
  • You can customize with your favorite chocolate chips, nuts, or even swirl in some peanut butter.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, or freeze for longer storage.
