Ingredients
Scale
Fats and Butter:
- 1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, softened
Sugars:
- 1 cup (200 grams) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) packed brown sugar
Flour and Dry Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (60 grams) all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups (180 grams) all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup (30 grams) cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Eggs and Flavorings:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional Ingredients:
- 1 cup (170 grams) chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring sides overhang for easy removal.
- Create the brownie base by whisking melted butter, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Incorporate eggs thoroughly, then gently fold in flour, cocoa powder, and salt until just combined. Spread the dark, rich mixture evenly across the prepared pan.
- Craft the cookie layer by creaming butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy. Blend in egg and vanilla extract, then gradually incorporate flour, baking soda, and salt. Fold chocolate chips into the dough, creating a textured mixture.
- Carefully distribute cookie dough over the brownie layer, using a spatula to create an even, uniform surface that covers the entire chocolate base.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. Look for a golden-brown top and test doneness by inserting a toothpick that should emerge with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool completely in the pan. Once temperature normalizes, lift out using parchment paper edges and slice into clean, precise squares.
Notes
- Ensure precise ingredient measurements for consistent texture, as baking requires accuracy.
- Softened butter creates smoother cookie dough, enhancing overall mixing and final appearance.
- Use room temperature eggs to help ingredients blend more evenly and prevent clumping.
- Try dark or milk chocolate chips to customize flavor profile and match personal preferences.
