Ingredients

Brownie Batter:

½ cup Unsalted butter melted (113 g)
¾ cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips or roughly chopped chocolate (127.5 grams)
½ cup Granulated sugar (100 g)
½ cup Light brown sugar packed (100 g)
⅓ cup Cocoa powder (35 g)
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (5 ml)
½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 Eggs large
½ cup All-purpose flour (65 g)

Cookie Dough:

½ cup Unsalted butter Room temperature (113 g)
½ cup Granulated sugar (113 g)
¼ cup Light brown sugar packed (50 g)
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
1 Egg large
½ teaspoon Kosher salt
½ teaspoon Baking powder
¼ teaspoon Baking soda
1 ⅓ cups All-purpose flour (160 g)
1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips (170 g)

Instructions

Line a 9X13-inch baking dish with parchment paper and heat oven to 350℉.

For the brownies:

Melt the butter then stir in the cocoa powder. Whisk in both sugar and the salt.
Add the eggs and vanilla and with the electric mixer beat well. ** check out the secret in notes.
Add the flour and mix until almost combined.
With a rubber or silicone spatula fold in the chocolate chips by hand. Scrape the batter down from the bowl sides mixing in any remaining flour from the bottom and sides.
Tranfser the brownie batter to the prepared baking pan and spread it into a thin layer. Set aside.

For the cookie dough:

With the electric mixer cream the butter, and sugars on high for 3 to 4 minutes until light and fluffy. Scrape the batter from the bowl sides and bottom as needed.
Mix in the vanilla and egg. Scrape the bowl down once more.
In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder until well-mixed.
Add in the flour combination and mix until combined.
With a spatula, fold in the chocolate chips by hand. (If you like, reserve a few tablespoons of chips to sprinkle on top of the brookies when you pull them out of the oven.)
Drop spoonfuls of the cookie batter onto the brownie batter. It doesn't need to cover the bottom layer. We want some of the brownie batter showing through.
Cover with foil and bake at 350℉ for 20 minutes then bake another 20 minutes uncovered.
Allow to cool before removing from pan and cutting.
