• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter (-melted)

3 tablespoons granulated sugar

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

1 large egg yolk

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

2 tablespoons butter (-softened)

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1 large egg yolk

¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

⅓ cup all-purpose flour

⅛ teaspoon baking soda

⅛ teaspoon salt

¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

2 tablespoons chopped walnuts

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and lightly grease a 10-ounce ramekin.

Make the brownie layer

Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a microwave-safe bowl.

In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar, flour, and cocoa powder.

Add the melted butter, egg yolk, and vanilla to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.

Transfer the brownie batter to the greased ramekin, smoothing it into an even layer.

Make the cookie layer

In a small bowl, cream together butter and both sugars.

Mix in the egg yolk and vanilla.

Add flour, baking soda, and salt, stirring until just combined.

Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts.

Layer this cookie dough over the brownie batter in the ramekin and place the filled ramekin on a rimmed baking sheet to catch any spills.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and the brookie is cooked through. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, your brookie is ready to enjoy.
