When it comes to treats, my husband is the brownie lover, and I’m the chocolate chip cookie fanatic.  I first found this recipe on Mel’s Kitchen Cafe and decided to give it a try. These Brookies turned out to be just the compromise we needed–they are amazing!

First you make a simple homemade brownie batter (that you thicken just a little bit so that it makes a great cookie), and then you make a classic chocolate chip cookie batter. You roll tiny little balls of both types of batter, and press two together to make the perfect half-brownie, half-cookie concoction!

These little Chocolate Chip Brownie Cookies (Brookies) are magical! Delicious chocolate brownie goodness sandwich with a yummy chocolate chip cookie. And as a total bonus, these cookies freeze great, so you can make a batch, stick some in the freezer and enjoy them anytime!

For the chocolate chip cookie batter
  1. Cream together the butter and sugars until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla and mix well.
  2. In a separate small bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and gently stir in the chocolate chips.

  5. Bake 8-10 minutes (don't over bake). Remove from oven and allow to cool on the pan for 1-2 minutes before removing to a cooling rack.
