Rich, chewy brookies made with brown butter for extra flavor. A fudgy brownie base topped with golden chocolate chip cookie dough — the best of both desserts in one bite.

Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Layer:

  • ½ cup browned butter

  • 115g dark chocolate (60–70%), chopped

  • ½ cup granulated sugar

  • ½ cup brown sugar

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a 9×13-inch pan with parchment paper.

  • Brown the butter, then divide evenly for each batter.
