Ingredients

Scale

Brownies:

5 oz. (140g) Dark Chocolate (60%-70%)

¼ cup Unsalted Butter

2 Eggs (at room temperature)

¼ (55g) cup Brown Sugar

¼ (50g) cup Granulated Sugar

½ tbsp. Vanilla Extract

½ tsp. Baking Powder

⅓ cup (41g) All Purpose Flour

4 tbsp. Dutch Cocoa Powder

Pinch of Sea Salt

Cookies:

½ cup Unsalted Butter

⅓ cup (67g) Granulated Sugar

⅓ cup (73g) Brown Sugar

1 Egg (at room temperature)

½ tsp. Vanilla Extract

1 cup (120g) All Purpose Flour

1 tsp. Baking Soda

Pinch of Sea Salt

1 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a 8 x 8 inch brownie tray with parchment paper.
  2. To make the brownie batter: Melt the dark chocolate and butter - either place a metal bowl over boiling water (making sure that only the steam touches the bottom of the bowl) and melt the chocolate and butter together. Or melt butter in the microwave until bubbling and add in chocolate, whisk until completely melted.
  3. In another bowl, mix the eggs, white and brown sugar, and vanilla extract and whisk these ingredients until they're well combined. Then mix in the chocolate and butter mixture.
  4. Sift the baking powder, flour, cocoa powder, and a pinch of sea salt and combine with wet ingredients - mix until just combined, don't overmix.
  5. To make the cookie dough: Add the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar to a mixing bowl. Use a hand or stand mixer and mix it until it is creamy and pale yellow in color. 
  6. Add in the egg, vanilla extract, and mix until well incorporated.
  7. Sift in the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix with a rubber spatula until fully combined, don't overmix
  8. Place half of the brownie batter on the bottom of the brownie tray and scoop the cookie dough into balls and put on top. Fill the spaces left between the cookie dough balls with the other half of the brownie mixture. Add the chocolate chips on top and use a rubber spatula to combine everything by making swirls.
  9. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until you insert a toothpick in the center and it comes out dry. Cool tray on a wire rack before cutting. Enjoy!
