Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 12 cup (100g) packed brown sugar
- 1 cup (175g) semisweet chocolate chips
- 12 cup (115g) unsalted butter
- 12 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
- 112 cups (190g) all-purpose flour
- 12 cup (65g) all-purpose flour
Dry Ingredients:
- 13 cup (40g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 12 teaspoon baking soda
- 14 teaspoon baking powder
- 14 teaspoon salt
- 12 teaspoon salt
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the baking workspace by positioning the oven rack in the center and heating to 350F (175C). Coat a 9×13-inch pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper, ensuring complete coverage.
- Create the rich brownie foundation by melting butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat and vigorously whisk in granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture becomes glossy and smooth. Gradually incorporate cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder, stirring until a uniform batter forms. Carefully spread the dark, decadent mixture across the prepared pan, ensuring an even surface.
- Craft the cookie layer by thoroughly beating softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until the mixture becomes pale and airy. Introduce the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully integrated. In a separate vessel, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, stirring just until incorporated. Delicately fold chocolate chips throughout the dough.
- Assemble the brookies by delicately distributing spoonfuls of cookie dough across the brownie base, creating a rustic, marbled appearance. Use a spatula to softly connect the layers, maintaining the distinct textures.
- Slide the pan into the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. The brookies are ready when a toothpick inserted near the center reveals a few moist crumbs. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely within the pan before slicing into indulgent squares.
Notes
- Achieve the perfect texture by not overmixing the batter, which can lead to tough brookies and sacrifice that desirable fudgy, chewy consistency.
- Use room temperature eggs and butter to ensure smoother mixing and more even baking, helping ingredients blend seamlessly for a professional-looking dessert.
- Experiment with different chocolate chip varieties like dark, milk, or semi-sweet to customize the flavor profile and create your signature brookie experience.
- Prevent sticking by using parchment paper with slight overhang, making it easier to lift and remove the brookies from the pan without breaking them.
