Ingredients

  • 1 box brownie mix prepared according to package instructions. Use any brownie mix, just want it to be one that fits an 8"x8" or 9"x9" pan. 

Cookie Layer

  • 12 tablespoons unsalted butter softened to room temperature
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. 
  • Line a 9”x13” pan with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray. 
  • Prepare the brownie mix according to the package directions, then pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it along the bottom of the pan until it’s in an even layer. 
  • Make the cookie layer by creaming the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a bowl (use a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment). Add the egg and vanilla and mix again. Add the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and mix to combine. Lastly, stir in the chocolate chips. 
  • Use your hands to portion the cookie dough over the top of the brownie batter. The cookie dough will cover most of the brownie batter, but if there areas that the brownie batter is peaking through, that’s fine!
  • Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Then uncover and bake for an additional 20 minutes. 
  • Remove from the oven and let cool completely before slicing and serving.
