Cookie Brownie Bars are the best double dose of dessert baked into one delicious sweet treat! Made with a box mix and store-bought dough shortcuts, it is so quick and easy to prepare the perfect brookie bar.
Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper, and grease the sides, and preheat oven to 350F degrees.
Press cookie dough into the bottom of the pan to cover the bottom fully.
Using a medium bowl prep your brownies per the instructions on the box.
Mix brownie batter according to package directions. Note: if you add a second egg you can get a more cake-like brownie (but you might need a few more minutes in the oven)!
Pour brownie batter onto prepared cookie dough.
Sprinkle ¼ cup mini chocolate chips onto brownie batter.
Bake for 50-55 minutes until the brownie is set. Note: They will look very crinkly on top, and a toothpick should come out slightly wet.
Set baking dish on a wire rack allow it to cool completely before slicing.
Cut and serve with ice cream or on their own!
Notes
Storage:
To Store: Store your cookie brownie bars in an airtight container on the countertop for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
To Freeze: These brownies can also be frozen for up to 3 months. I recommend cutting them into squares and placing in a freezer bag or freezer-safe container. Defrost on the countertop when you are ready to serve.
Tips:
If you added a second egg to your brownie batter, you will get a more cake-like brownie, but you might need a few more minutes in the oven!
Make sure to let the bars cool completely before removing them from the pan and slicing; they’ll be too soft when warm.
For an extra indulgence, you can warm your bars slightly in the oven or microwave and serve with a scoop of ice cream.
You can even buy a Betty Crocker cookie brownie bar mix all in one box!
