Ingredients

  • For the 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
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
  • For the 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
  • 3/4 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 layer: In a bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated and brown sugars, eggs, and vanilla. Stir in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and chocolate chips if using. Spread evenly in prepared pan.
  3. Make the cookie layer: In another bowl, cream softened butter with sugars until light. Mix in egg and vanilla. Stir in flour, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips.
  4. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough over the brownie batter and gently spread to cover most of the surface without mixing layers.
  5. Bake for 30–35 minutes, until the top is golden and a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
  6. Let cool completely before slicing into bars.

Notes

  • Swirl peanut butter into the brownie batter for a flavor twist.
  • Use white chocolate chips or toffee bits for variation.
  • Sprinkle sea salt on top before baking for a sweet-salty combo.
  • Use boxed brownie mix or store-bought dough for a shortcut.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temp for 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
