For the Brownie Base

1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter
-
1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
-
2 large eggs
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
1/3 cup (40 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
-
1/2 cup (65 g) all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon baking powder
For the Cookie Dough Topping (Edible, No Eggs)
-
1/4 cup (55 g) unsalted butter, softened
-
1/4 cup (50 g) brown sugar, packed
-
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
2 tablespoons milk
-
1/2 cup (65 g) all-purpose flour, heat-treated
-
1/3 cup (60 g) mini chocolate chips
Note: Heat-treat the flour by spreading it on a baking sheet and baking at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes, then cool. This makes it safe to eat raw.
Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Brownie Base
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
-
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Stir in sugar until well combined.
-
Add eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth.
-
Sift in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
-
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Cool completely.
Step 2: Make the Cookie Dough Topping
-
In a medium bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Stir in vanilla extract and milk until smooth.
-
Fold in heat-treated flour and mini chocolate chips until evenly combined.
Step 3: Assemble the Brownie Bites
-
Once the brownie base is completely cooled, spread the cookie dough evenly over the top.
-
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up the cookie dough layer.
Step 4: Cut and Serve
-
Use a sharp knife to cut the brownies into small bite-sized squares.
-
Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
These bites are fudgy, sweet, and irresistible, combining the best of brownies and cookie dough in one snackable treat.
