Brown Butter Brookies Recipe
This recipe guides you through making delicious Brown Butter Brookies, a delightful combination of a rich chocolate chip cookie base and a fudgy brownie topping. The cookie layer features nutty brown butter, a blend of light brown and granulated sugars, a large egg, vanilla extract, all-purpose flour, baking soda, flaky sea salt, and an abundance of semi-sweet chocolate chips. The brownie layer is crafted from unsalted butter, Dutch-processed cocoa powder, vanilla, light brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, flour, and a touch of salt, creating a perfectly moist and chewy texture. Together, these layers bake into an irresistible bar that's perfect for any occasion.
