Directions

1. Make the brown butter: Add 113g of butter for the chocolate chip cookies into a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the butter turns amber and develops brown specks. Transfer to a medium bowl. Let it cool while you prepare the brownie cookies.
   
   

2. Make the brownie cookies: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and butter. Stir every 30 seconds until smooth. Mix in the cocoa powder until fully combined. In another bowl, whisk egg and dark brown sugar for 1-2 minutes until light and fluffy. Add the melted chocolate mixture and stir gently. Fold in flour, baking powder, and salt until combined. Set aside in the fridge.
   
   

3. Make the chocolate chip cookies: Whisk together the brown butter with both sugars. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well. Fold in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the chocolate chips.
   
   

4. Form the cookies: Scoop 2 tbsp portions of chocolate chip dough and 1.5 tbsp portions of brownie dough. Alternate adding each portion into your hands (e.g., brownie, chocolate chip, brownie, chocolate chip) to form a ball. Chill dough balls for 30 minutes.
   
   

5. Preheat oven: Set the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Bake cookies for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown. Allow cooling for 5 minutes on the sheet before transferring them to a wire rack.
