Method
 

Preparing the Brownie Layer
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking pan.
  2. In a saucepan, melt the butter, then stir in the brown sugar and granulated sugar until combined.
  3. Remove from heat, then let cool slightly before whisking in eggs and vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine cocoa powder, flour, and salt. Gradually mix into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Preparing the Cookie Layer
  1. In a bowl, beat together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in vanilla.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt, then add to the wet ingredients until just combined.
  4. Fold in chocolate chips.
Assembling the Browkies
  1. Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  2. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough over the brownie layer, then gently swirl to combine slightly.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.

Notes

For softer browkies, underbake slightly and let cool before slicing. Store in an airtight container with a piece of bread to maintain softness.
