Brookies

Brookies are one of those things that I really enjoy, but that I do not do too often. I'm not really sure why. A brookie is a mix of sugar cookies (or really any cookie you choose) and brownies!

Ingredients:

For the sugar cookies:

- 2 cups flour*

- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

- 1/2 cup butter*

(This is my sugar cookie recipe!)

For the brownies:

Recipe:

Making the sugar cookies:

- Whisk flour, baking soda, and baking powder together.

- In a separate bowl, cream the butter, vanilla extract, and sugar together.

- Add in the egg to the butter mixture and combine.

- Slowly add in the dry ingredients and mix until smooth.

Making the brownies:

- In a small saucepan, melt the butter and chocolate over low heat and stir.

- Stir in the sugar, eggs, salt, vanilla.

- Slowly add in the flour until smooth.

- Once both mixtures are completed, add cupcake/muffin cups into a muffin pan.

- Into the cups, spoon one spoonful of brownie and one small handful of sugar cookie. You can do this in whatever order you choose.

- Place in the oven for 20 - 30 minutes, until edges of the sugar cookie turn golden brown, or until they pass the toothpick test or they have an internal temperature of around 180F.

- Remove from the muffin pan, let cool, and you're done!

Notes and things I learned along the way:

You can combine the cookie dough and brownies together better if you prefer. I personally prefer to keep them more separate!
