Ingredients
 
 

Chocolate chip cookie dough:

  • 115 g Butter soft
  • ½ cup Brown sugar
  • ¼ cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 Eggs
  • teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1 ⅓ cups Flour
  • ½ tablespoon Cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon Baking soda
  • ¾ cup Chocolate chunks

Brownie cookie dough:

  • 100 g Butter soft
  • cup Sugar
  • cup Brown sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 Egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • teaspoon Salt
  • 1 ½ cups Flour
  • cup Dutch cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 1 ½ teaspoon Baking powder

Instructions
 

Brownie cookie dough:

  • Start by melting the butter. You can melt the butter in the microwave or on the stovetop. In a medium-sized saucepan add the butter (which has been at room temperature for 20-30 minutes) and melt in on medium heat swirling the saucepan constantly.
  • Transfer the butter into a big mixing bowl and let the butter cool to room temperature so it won’t cook the eggs.
  • Add the brown sugar, sugar, egg, egg yolk, salt, and vanilla extract to the bowl with the butter and mix with a whisk until well combined.
  • Sift the flour, cocoa powder and add the baking powder and gently mix until the mixture is almost combined.
  • Add the chocolate chips if desired and fold the mixture with a spatula until just combined, cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and let the dough rest in the fridge for at least an hour.

Chocolate chip cookie dough:

  • Into a big mixing bowl, add the room temperature butter, and cream it with an electric hand mixer for 2-3 minutes or until it’s creamy and light in color.
  • Add the brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Cream the butter and sugar with an electric hand mixer until the mixture is creamy and light.
  • Add the egg, vanilla extract, and mix until combined and creamy.
  • Add the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and kosher salt, and mix with the hand mixer until almost combined.
  • Add the chocolate chunks and fold with a spatula until the mixture is just combined.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rest in the fridge for at least an hour.
  • Preheat an oven to 180c (350f) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Assembly:

  • Take both of the cookie dough bowls out of the fridge and scoop about 1 tablespoon of each cookie dough. Place the cookie dough balls on a plate until you finish rolling all of your mixtures.
  • Grab one chocolate chip cookie dough ball and one brownie cookie dough ball and press them together. Roll them into one big cookie dough ball.
  • Place the cookie dough balls onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, and bake for 11-12 minutes. Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes, and then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients. It is important that you use room-temperature ingredients like eggs and butter. This step ensures that your mixture mixes into a homogenous mixture and bakes perfectly. you don’t want to place cold batter into the oven.
Don’t overmix the batter, you don’t want to develop the gluten in the flour. This step ensures you have moist cookies and not dense and dry cookies.
Measure your flour correctly! When measuring your flour, avoid scooping it with a measuring cup. Instead, stir the flour with a spoon to create as many air pockets as possible, and spoon it into your measuring cup. Finally, level it with a back of a knife.
Line your sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone mat! This step helps the cookies to bake evenly, and it makes sure that your cookies release easily from the pan.
Use your favorite kind of chocolate bars. we recommend using the highest quality dark chocolate or semisweet chocolate that you can afford. The melting chocolate chunks that are in the chocolate chip cookie dough add so much to this cookie. We highly recommend using a great high-quality chocolate bar for this recipe.
Use a cookies scoop to scoop out the cookies, that way you will have even-sized cookies, plus it ensures that your cookies bake evenly.
Before you start to make this recipe, measure and prepare your ingredients so the cooking process will go smoothly and easily.
Chill the dough! This step is crucial and prevents the cookies to spread out too much. After making the cookie dough, cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean towel, and chill the dough in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
