Description
Brookies are a delightful fusion of gooey brownie and chewy cookie, perfect for those who can’t decide between the two. A deliciously indulgent treat that satisfies any sweet tooth.
Ingredients
For the brownie:
250 g of dark chocolate (70%)
150 g of butter
180 g of sugar
4 eggs
150 g of flour
A pinch of sea salt
For the cookie:
125 g of butter
80 g of brown sugar
40 g of white sugar
1 egg
170 g of flour
1 tsp of baking powder
150 g of chocolate chunks
Instructions
- Melt the butter and dark chocolate together in a heatproof bowl, stirring every 30 seconds to prevent burning.
- Once melted, stir in the sugar and then add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Sift in the flour, add a pinch of sea salt, and mix until smooth.
- Grease and line a 20×20 cm baking pan with parchment paper, then pour the brownie mixture into the pan. Place it in the refrigerator while preparing the cookie dough.
- Cream together the butter and both types of sugar using a spatula or electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and mix well, then sift in the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Fold in the chocolate chunks, then place the dough in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
- Take the brownie base out of the fridge and spread the cookie dough evenly over the top using your fingers.
- Preheat your oven to 175°C (fan-assisted) and bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Allow the brookies to cool completely at room temperature before removing from the pan and slicing.
Notes
- For a nutty version, add chopped walnuts or pecans to the brownie or cookie batter.
- For a vegan version, use plant-based butter and egg replacements like flaxseed or chia egg substitutes.
- For a stuffed version, add caramel or peanut butter in the cookie dough.
- To make them gluten-free, swap the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
- Add cocoa powder to the brownie batter for a double chocolate version.
