  • 1 large egg + 1 egg yolk, room temperature

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

  • Flaky sea salt (optional)

Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the Oven

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2️⃣ Make the Brownie Cookie Dough

  1. Cream butter and brown sugar for about 3 minutes until light and fluffy.

  2. Add egg and vanilla; mix well.

  3. In another bowl, whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

  4. Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients until combined.

  5. Fold in chocolate chips and set aside.

3️⃣ Make the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

  1. Mix cold butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar.

  2. Increase speed and cream for 4 minutes until smooth and fluffy.

  3. Add egg and egg yolk one at a time.

  4. Mix in vanilla extract.

  5. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.

  6. Add dry ingredients in two additions, mixing just until combined.

  7. Fold in chocolate chips without overmixing.

4️⃣ Form the Brookies

  1. Scoop dough into balls — make chocolate chip dough balls slightly larger.

  2. Press one brownie dough ball and one cookie dough ball together.

  3. Roll gently into one combined ball.

  4. Place cookies 2 inches apart on baking sheets.

5️⃣ Bake

Bake one tray at a time for 8–9 minutes until:

  • edges are set

  • centers look soft and slightly underbaked

Do not overbake for gooey centers.

Cool on baking sheet for 5–10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

6️⃣ Finish

Sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired and serve warm.

Notes

  • Underbake slightly for fudgy brownie texture.

  • Use room temperature eggs for smoother dough.

  • Cold butter in cookie dough helps create thick cookies.

  • Chill shaped dough balls for 10 minutes if your kitchen is warm.

  • Add extra chocolate chips on top before baking for bakery-style looks.
