These fudgy chewy brookies combine rich brownies and soft chocolate chip cookies in one decadent dessert. With a gooey brownie base and a chewy cookie top, they’re the perfect treat for when you can’t choose between two favorites.

Ingredients

  • Brownie Layer:
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chunks (optional)
  • Cookie Layer:
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8 or 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Make the brownie batter: In a bowl, mix melted butter with both sugars. Whisk in eggs and vanilla. Stir in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and chocolate chips until smooth. Pour into prepared pan and smooth the top.
  3. Make the cookie dough: In another bowl, cream butter with both sugars. Add egg and vanilla, then mix in flour, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips until dough forms.
  4. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough over the brownie layer. Gently spread, leaving some brownie exposed.
  5. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs.
  6. Cool in the pan before slicing into squares.

Notes

  • Add chopped nuts or swirl in peanut butter for extra richness.
  • Use dark or white chocolate chips for variation.
  • Top with sprinkles or flaky sea salt before baking.
  • Store at room temp for up to 4 days, refrigerate longer, or freeze up to 2 months.
  • Reheat in microwave for 10–15 seconds for a gooey texture.
