Ingredients
  

Brownie Layer
  • 1 cup unsalted butter adds rich moisture and flavor; use margarine if needed
  • 1 cup granulated sugar sweetness that balances the cocoa; brown sugar can add extra depth
  • 1 cup cocoa powder provides that deep chocolate flavor; Dutch-process offers a richer taste
  • 2 medium eggs bind everything together; for an egg-free option, use unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour gives structure to the brownies; whole wheat flour can be a healthier twist
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract enhances the flavor profile; consider almond extract for a different note
  • 1 cup chocolate chips for extra gooeyness; swap for white chocolate or butterscotch chips for fun
Cookie Layer
  • 1 cup unsalted butter brings creaminess and helps achieve perfect texture; can use coconut oil as a substitute
  • 1 cup brown sugar adds a rich, caramel-like flavor; mix with granulated sugar for balanced sweetness
  • 1 large egg essential for binding; flaxseed meal can replace it for a vegan version
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda helps the cookies rise and become soft; don’t confuse it with baking powder!
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour keeps the cookie structure intact; almond flour creates a gluten-free option
  • 1 cup chocolate chips a must for added chocolatey goodness; feel free to use seasonal candies for Halloween flair!
