Brookies Recipe(Brownie Cookies)
This brookie recipe was propelled by a collaborator who couldn't choose if she needed brownies or chocolate chip treats for her birthday treat. Since she said I ought to simply pick one, I thought this up coming back. I was unable to find a recipe like it on Allrecipes, so I made it. These brookies go rapidly; I typically make a twofold group in a jam roll skillet.

A brookie is part brownie, part cookie, and delicious.
What Are Brookies?
Can’t decide between brownies and cookies? That’s where brookies come in! This dessert mashup consists of a layer of cookie dough topped with a layer of brownie batter, which is then baked to soft and chewy perfection.
How to Make Brookies
You’ll find a full, step-by-step recipe above — but here’s a brief overview of what you can expect when you make homemade brookies:
- Make the cookie dough and press it into a greased baking dish.
- Make the brownie batter and spread it over the cookie layer.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cut the brookies into bars.
Tip: If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought chocolate chip cookie dough instead of making the cookies.
How to Store Brookies
Store the brookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to four days. To keep them extra soft, throw a piece of white bread into the container. It’ll absorb the dry air and keep the cookies soft for longer.
Can You Freeze Brookies?
Yes! But it’s best to freeze the cookie dough and brownie batter separately. Thaw them in the refrigerator overnight, then assemble the brookies and bake according to the recipe.
