You know those times when you cant decide between a brownie or a chocolate chip cookie? Well you can now make these brookies cookies! Half brownie, half chocolate chip cookie, these cookies are a mixture of these two classic favorite desserts rolled into one. The best part? Theres no need to make two batters, split this one batter in half to make both! These are also no chill cookies and can be made in 30 minutes or less!
3/4cup(135g)chocolate chips, preferably mini chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350° F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large microwavable safe bowl, melt the 1 cup butter for 30 seconds at a time until fully melted.
Add in the 1 cup + 1 tbsp brown sugar, and ⅔ cup white sugar. Mix well with a spatula or whisk.
Add in 2 eggs and 1 yolk, along with 1 tbsp vanilla extract. Mix again until uniformly combined.
Add the 3 ½ cup flour, 1 ¼ tsp baking powder, ½ tsp baking soda and ½ tsp kosher salt and mix well until a thick dough forms.
Using another bowl, evenly divide the dough into two equal portions. If you are weighing, each dough portion should be about 545 grams each.
To one portion add ¾ cup chocolate chips. You can use reg size or minis!
To the other bowl add 1/4 cup cocoa powder and the remaining egg yolk. Mix well until fully combined.
Using a tablespoon measuring spoon, spoon out 1 tablespoon of each dough and press them together. Roll the two doughs like you would a meatball. Continue rolling the dough balls.
Place each dough ball about 2” apart and add more chocolate chips to each dough ball if you like. Bake for 11-13 minutes until the chocolate chip cookie part is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and immediately scoot with a cookie cutter: place a larger cookie cutter or a large glass over the cookie and move your hand in fast circles. This helps keep the cookie chewy and makes it perfectly round!
Cool for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
You can use mini chocolate chips, to regular sized ones.
