Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 350.
Line a 9x9 (or 8x8) square baking pan with foil or parchment paper, or grease with baking spray. Set aside.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt butter and semi-sweet chocolate together until the chocolate is almost melted, stir until melted. Allow the mixture to cool for 5-8 minutes. After the chocolate has cooled slightly, add in the granulated sugar and eggs. With a whisk or rubber spatula, mix in the sugar and eggs very well. Next, add in the vanilla extract and espresso powder. Mix until combined. Add in all-purpose flour, salt, baking powder, and unsweetened cocoa powder. Stir until well combined. Add in canola oil, and stir until combined. Lastly, add in 1 cup of milk chocolate chips. Stir until combined. Spread the brownie batter into your prepared baking pan.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips over the top of the batter. With your rubber spatula, press the semi-sweet chocolate chips into the brownie batter and give the batter a final spread, making sure it’s in an even layer in the baking dish.
Bake for 15-20 minutes.
While the brownies are baking, in a mixer, cream butter until it is light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Next, add in sugars and cream together with butter.
Lastly, add in egg, vanilla, and salt. Cream.
In a small bowl, mix flour, baking soda, and espresso powder. With the mixer on low, slowly add the flour mix into wet mix.
Once combined, add in chocolate chips and mix until just combined.
Pull brownies out of the oven and spread cookie dough over the top of the brownies (I typically take some cookie dough, flatten it slightly in my hand, and place it on top of the brownie batter. I repeat until brownie batter is mostly covered)
Put back in the oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out with a few moist crumbs. If the batter is taking too long to cook, and it looks like the cookies are getting overdone, place foil on top of the pan to protect the cookies and keep baking until brownies are done. |
