Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.
- Cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir in chocolate chips.
- Melt butter and mix with granulated sugar and cocoa powder until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Stir in flour and salt until a thick, glossy batter forms.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough over the brownie layer, pressing them gently into the batter.
- Bake in preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Allow to cool in the pan before slicing.
Serving
- Slice the brookies into 8 pieces. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally paired with a scoop of ice cream.
Storage
- Store leftover brookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
