Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips or chunks
- Optional: chopped nuts or candies for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and sugar until well blended. Add eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract for enhanced flavor. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips or chunks for that extra gooeyness.
- Line a baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Pour most of the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. This forms the fudgy base of your browkies.
- Prepare the cookie layer using a pre-made cookie dough or simple homemade dough. Drop spoonfuls or spread the cookie dough over the brownie layer, creating a marbled appearance or layered look. Sprinkle chopped nuts or candies on top if desired.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs. Cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before slicing to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to set.
Notes
- Use high-quality cocoa powder and chocolate for a richer flavor.
- Do not overmix the batter to keep the browkies fudgy and chewy.
- Bake until just set to prevent over-drying.
- Add-ins like nuts or candies can be customized for texture and flavor.
