# Instructions:
01 -
Melt butter on medium heat until you see small browned bits and the color turns golden. Move 90g into a bowl.
02 -
Set oven to 350°F/175°C. Line an 8-inch square tray with parchment paper and grease it lightly.
03 -
Melt butter and chocolate together. Stir in cocoa powder. In another bowl, whisk sugar and eggs until airy. Gently combine both mixes, then add flour and salt carefully.
04 -
Stir the sugars into the browned butter. Mix in the vanilla and egg. Add the dry ingredients and chocolate chunks, stirring just enough to combine.
05 -
Start with a brownie layer, spread most of the cookie dough, follow with the last of the brownie batter, and top with cookie pieces. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the edges are set.
# Notes:
01 -
Center should jiggle a little when it’s ready.
02 -
Cool entirely before slicing and enjoying.
03 -
An oven thermometer is a good idea for accuracy.
