Ingredients
For the Brownie Cookies:
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
For the Cookie Dough Filling:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt.
In another large bowl, beat melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until well combined.
Gradually stir dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a thick batter forms. Fold in chocolate chips if desired.
Drop rounded spoonfuls of batter onto baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until edges are set and centers are soft. Cool on sheets for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
For the filling, beat butter with both sugars until creamy. Add vanilla, then gradually mix in flour and salt. Stir in chocolate chips.
Once cookies are cool, spread filling on the flat side of one cookie and top with another to make a sandwich.
Repeat with remaining cookies. Optional: Chill for 30 minutes for a firmer filling.
Serve and enjoy!
