🥘Ingredients

For the Chocolate Chip Cookie Layer

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup chocolate chips

For the Brownie Layer

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking powder

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat oven to 350°F.
2Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
3For the cookie layer, beat softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
4Add egg and vanilla extract, then beat until combined.
5In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
6Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.
7Fold in chocolate chips with a spatula.
8Press the cookie dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan, forming a compact layer.
9Set aside while preparing the brownie batter.
10For the brownie layer, whisk melted butter and granulated sugar in a bowl until smooth.
11Add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.
12Sift cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder into the wet ingredients.
13Stir with a spatula until just combined and no dry streaks remain, being careful not to overmix.
14Pour the brownie batter over the cookie layer in the pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula to cover the entire surface.
15Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
16Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a cooling rack, about 1 hour.
17Once cool, lift the bars out using the parchment overhang, cut into squares, and serve.

Q: Can I use dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet?

Yes, you can definitely use dark chocolate if you prefer a deeper flavor profile. Just keep in mind that dark chocolate has a stronger flavor than semi-sweet chocolate, so you may want to adjust the amount of sugar you add to the recipe.

Q: How do I ensure my cookies are chewy on the inside and crispy on the outside?

This is where the magic happens! To achieve chewy cookies with a crispy exterior, make sure to not overbake them. Take them out of the oven when they’re lightly golden brown around the edges and still slightly soft in the center.

Q: Can I substitute almond milk for regular milk?

Yes, you can use almond milk as a substitute for regular milk in this recipe. Just keep in mind that almond milk has a slightly sweeter flavor than regular milk, so you may want to adjust the amount of sugar you add accordingly.

Q: How do I store leftover cookies?

Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months. When you’re ready to serve them again, simply thaw at room temperature or reheat in the microwave or oven.

Q: Can I make these cookies gluten-free?

To make these cookies gluten-free, simply substitute gluten-free flours like almond flour or coconut flour for the all-purpose flour called for in the recipe.
