Ingredients
  

For the Brownie Layer:

½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick)

1 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

½ cup all-purpose flour

¼ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon baking powder

½ cup chocolate chips (optional)

For the Cookie Layer:

½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick), softened

¾ cup brown sugar, packed

½ cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon baking soda

¼ teaspoon salt

1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions
 

Prepare the Brownie Layer:

    - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

      - In a medium saucepan, melt the ½ cup of butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in granulated sugar, followed by the eggs and vanilla extract.

        - Add cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix until just combined. If using, fold in the chocolate chips.

          - Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.

            Prepare the Cookie Layer:

              - In a large mixing bowl, cream together ½ cup softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

                - Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.

                  - In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.

                    - Drop dollops of the cookie dough on top of the brownie batter, ensuring some brownie batter is still visible.

                      Create a Swirled Effect (Optional):

                        - Using a knife or a toothpick, gently swirl the two layers together for a marbled effect.

                          Bake:

                            - Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs (they will continue to cook while cooling).

                              - Allow the browkies to cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before cutting into squares.

                                Serve:

                                  - Enjoy them warm or at room temperature, and for an extra treat, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!
