Baking Tips for Success

Ingredients

For the Browkies

1 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup cookie dough (store-bought or homemade)

Combine the ingredients carefully for the best results.

Instructions

Prepare the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13 inch baking dish with parchment paper.

Make the Brownie Batter

In a large mixing bowl, stir together the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Then add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing well.

Add Dry Ingredients

Incorporate the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Layer with Cookie Dough

Spread half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish. Next, dollop spoonfuls of cookie dough over the brownie layer and then pour the remaining brownie batter on top.

Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Cool and Serve

Allow the Browkies to cool in the baking dish before cutting into squares and serving.

Enjoy your delicious Browkies!

Storing Your Browkies

Once your delicious Browkies have cooled down, storing them correctly is key to maintaining their delightful texture. Place them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to five days. If you want to keep them for a longer period, consider freezing them. Cut the Browkies into squares, wrap them individually in plastic wrap, and then place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can last up to two months in the freezer, preserving their rich flavor.

To enjoy them even after freezing, simply let the Browkies thaw at room temperature for about 30 minutes. For a warm, gooey treat, you can pop them in a microwave for a few seconds, reviving that freshly baked taste.

Pairing Suggestions

These Browkies pair wonderfully with a variety of beverages and sides. For a classic combination, enjoy them with a glass of cold milk or your favorite cup of coffee. The rich chocolate and sweet cookie flavors harmonize beautifully with the creamy textures of milk, enhancing the overall experience.

If you’re feeling adventurous, try pairing your Browkies with ice cream! A scoop of vanilla, chocolate, or even salted caramel ice cream on top of a warm Browkie creates a decadent dessert that will impress anyone. Add some whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate sauce for an extra touch of indulgence.
