Ingredients: For the Fudgy Brownie Batter
- Semi-sweet Chocolate: 90g
- Unsalted Butter: 170g
- Instant Coffee Powder: 1 tsp (to enhance the chocolate flavor)
- Sugar: 200g
- Eggs: 3 large
- Vanilla Extract: 1 tsp
- Dark Cocoa Powder: 1 tbsp
- Salt: ½ tsp
- All-purpose Flour: 95g
- Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips: 90g (extra for texture!)
Ingredients: For the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
- All-purpose Flour: 140g
- Baking Soda: ½ tsp
- Corn Flour: 1 tsp (for that perfect soft-baked texture)
- Salt: ½ tsp
- Unsalted Butter: 80g
- Brown Sugar: 70g
- Granulated Sugar: 30g
- Large Egg: 1
- Vanilla Extract: 1 tsp
- Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips: 100g
Instructions
- Start by melting the butter and 90g of chocolate chips together until smooth. Stir in the sugar and instant coffee powder while the mixture is warm. Whisk in the eggs one by one, then stir in the vanilla, salt, cocoa powder, and flour. Fold in the remaining 90g of chocolate chips. Pour the batter into your prepared baking tray and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, corn flour, salt, and baking soda. In a separate larger bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until light and creamy. Add the egg and vanilla, mixing well. Gradually incorporate the dry flour mixture, then fold in the 100g of chocolate chips.
- Preheat your oven to 180°C. Gently spread the cookie dough in even dollops over the top of the brownie batter. Place in the oven and bake for 50–60 minutes. You are looking for the cookie top to be golden brown and the brownie base to be set but still moist.
- Resist the temptation to cut in immediately! Let the Brookie Pie cool for at least 30 minutes. This allows the fudgy layers to set properly, ensuring the perfect slice every time.
Tips for the Best Brookie Pie
The Coffee Secret: The instant coffee powder doesn't make the pie taste like coffee; it simply makes the chocolate taste richer and more intense.
Don't Overbake: Since brownie batter is dense, keep an eye on the oven around the 50-minute mark to ensure the bottom stays fudgy.
