Can\u2019t decide between classic chocolate chip cookies or rich fudgy brownies? Now you don\u2019t have to! These chocolate chip cookie brownies are two favorites in one!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n In a bowl, combine melted butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar with a spatula or wooden spoon. Add egg and yolk one at a time, mixing for 30-60 seconds after each. Batter will thicken and lighten in color. Stir in vanilla extract.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n Add flour, baking soda and salt to the bowl and stir to combine. It will take a minute for the dough to come together as you stir it, but it will! Stir in chocolate chips, reserving a small handful to add to the cookie dough tops before baking.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n Melt butter and chocolate chips in a saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in sugar, then the eggs one at a time. Stir in vanilla extract. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n Add flour and salt and mix by hand until no streaks of flour remain.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n Spread brownie batter into an even layer into the prepared baking pan.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n Scoop or portion cookie dough into roughly rounded tablespoons and press slightly into the brownie batter. Add reserved chocolate chips to the top of the cookie dough and brownies.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n Bake for 35-45 minutes, until cookies are golden brown and brownies are set in the middle (Baking time varies based on your oven, and your preferred brownie doneness. Shorter time will yield soft fudgy brownies with chewy cookie bites, and baking for longer yields firmer brownies with cakier cookie bites).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\nTable of Contents<\/h2>\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\nbaking tip:<\/em>Line your pan with parchment paper overhang<\/h3>\n
\n
\nLet breads cool only for a few minutes before transferring them out of the pan to a wire rack to cool completely, but let other desserts cool completely so they\u2019re sturdy enough to lift without buckling. Then transfer to a cutting board and slice. No more messing up a slice trying to dig it out of the pan!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\nRecipe tips<\/h2>\n
