Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F Degrees. Line 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray
Cookie Dough
Cut cold Butter into cubes, and cream together Butter and Granulated Sugar in a large mixing bowl until fluffy. This will take about 2-3 minutes on medium/high speed with a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Add Egg and Vanilla Extract and cream until light and fluffy. Scrape sides of bowl as needed to include all ingredients together.
Mix in Brown Sugar and continue to cream for 2-3 additional minutes.
Gradually add All Purpose Flour, Baking Soda, Baking Powder, and Salt to the butter mixture and mix until combined.
Stir Chocolate Chips into cookie dough and set cookie dough aside.
Brownie Layer
In a large mixing bowl melt butter and chocolate chips together in microwave for 30 seconds. Stir mixture and heat for additional 30 seconds if needed to melt.
Add eggs and vanilla extract to butter mixture and mix to combine all ingredients.
Gradually mix in dry ingredients of granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cocoa, and salt into wet ingredients and mix until combined.
Brownie batter will be thick. Carefully spread brownie batter into bottom of 9x13 baking dish sprayed with cooking spray.
Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto brownie batter in baking dish. I find smaller spoonfuls of dough work best allowing space and room in between to see brownie batter. Do not press cookie dough into brownie batter.
Bake at 350F Degrees for 20 minutes covered with foil. Then remove foil and bake for 15 more minutes or until edges are set and lightly golden.
Allow Brookies to fully cool before slicing into 3 rows by 5 rows.
Store cooled bars in a sealed container.
Notes
Storage
Store: Stored cooled cookies in an airtight container or ZipLock bag. Cookies will stay fresh for up to 7 days but best if enjoyed within 3-4 days.
Freeze: Store cookies in a Ziploc bag or freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Place a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap between each cookie to prevent them from sticking together.
