Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the cookie dough layer
  • 1 cup All-purpose flour Gluten-free works if you sub in a 1-for-1 blend
  • 1/2 cup Brown sugar Coconut sugar is also fine for a deeper flavor
  • 1/4 cup Plant milk Oat, almond, soy; use what's in your fridge
  • 1/4 cup Vegan butter or coconut oil Vegan butter is recommended for an authentic taste
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Chocolate chips Use dairy-free kind
For the brownie layer
  • 1 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup Cocoa powder Unsweetened
  • 1/2 cup White or cane sugar Coconut sugar can be used as a fancier option
  • 1/4 cup Plant milk Same as above, no big rules here
  • 1/4 cup Vegan butter or coconut oil Coconut oil is a decent swap
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease or line an 8×8 inch pan.
  2. For the cookie dough layer: Mix sugars and fat together until smooth-ish. Stir in plant milk and vanilla. Dump in the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  3. Spread the cookie dough in the bottom of the greased pan and press down firmly.
  4. For the brownie layer: Mix wet ingredients with wet, dry with dry. Combine the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir until smooth and glossy.
  5. Gently spread the brownie layer over the cookie dough.
  6. Bake for 28-32 minutes, until the top looks shiny and slightly crackled; a toothpick should come out with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Cool for 15 minutes before slicing, or enjoy a gooey corner immediately.

Notes

For neat slices, chill for an hour before cutting. These brookies can be forgiving with substitutes for milk or fat.
