Ingredients:- Brownie Cookie Batter:
- 10 tablespoons butter, softened
- â…” cup lightly packed brown sugar (5 ounces)
- â…” cup granulated sugar (5 ounces)
- 1 large egg
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups plus 3 tablespoons flour (7.25 ounces)
- ½ cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder (1.5 ounces)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Chocolate Chip Cookie Batter:
- 10 tablespoons butter, softened
- â…” cup granulated sugar (5 ounces)
- â…” cup light brown sugar (5 ounces)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 large egg
- 1 large egg yolk
- 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (about 10.75 ounces)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ¼ cup chocolate chips (mini size preferred)
Directions:
-
Preheat the oven to 350° F.
-
Line baking sheets with silpat liners or parchment paper, Set aside.
-
For the brownie cookie batter, beat the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar together until smooth and creamy, 1-2 minutes.
-
Add the egg, yolk and vanilla and beat the mixture for 2-3 minutes until light in color.
-
Add the dry ingredients to the batter and mix until combined.
-
For the chocolate chip cookie batter, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth, 1-2 minutes.
-
Blend in the egg, egg yolk and vanilla, mixing for 2-3 minutes until the batter is very light in color.
-
Add the dry ingredients to the batter with the chocolate chips and mix until no dry streaks remain and the chocolate chips are evenly distributed.
-
Portion both sets of dough into about 4 dozen equal pieces; they will be small teaspoon or so sized balls (if you want to be super precise, I weigh about .5 ounce balls for the brownie batter and .65 ounce balls for the chocolate chip cookie batter).
-
Grabbing one chocolate chip cookie ball and one brownie batter ball, press them together and use your hands to gently form into a cookie shape, flattening and turning to smooth the edges and form a flattish but still thick cookie shape; they'll spread out while baking.
-
Bake the cookies on the prepared baking sheets for 8-10 minutes.
-
Don't overbake or they will be dry and crunchy - underbake just slightly for a soft, chewy texture.
-
It's ok if the chocolate side crackles just a bit.
-
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the pan for 1-2 minutes before scooping onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
