Ingredients
  

For the Brownie Base:
  • 1 box brownie mix Ghirardelli Double Chocolate recommended
  • 1/2 cup butter melted
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 large egg
For the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough:
  • 1 stick salted butter softened to room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Brownie Base:
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, melted butter, water, and egg. Stir until smooth.
  4. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly to cover the bottom.
  5. Make the Cookie Dough:
  6. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  7. Add the egg and vanilla extract, and mix until combined.
  8. Gradually add the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until just incorporated.
  9. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  10. Assemble the Brownies:
  11. Scatter pieces of cookie dough over the brownie batter. Gently press the dough down into the batter.
  12. Bake:
  13. Bake for 35-40 minutes. If the top starts to brown too quickly, cover with foil for the first 20 minutes, then uncover for the rest of the baking time.
  14. Let the brownies cool for 20 minutes before cutting them into squares.

Notes

  • Tip for even baking: If the cookie layer begins to overbake, cover the pan loosely with foil for the first 20 minutes, then uncover for the rest of the time.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4-5 days at room temperature. You can also freeze for up to 3 months.
