Fudgy Chewy Brookies: The Genius Cookie That’ll End the Great Brownie vs. Cookie Debate Forever

Fudgy chewy brookies with crackly tops and gooey chocolate interior

These Fudgy Chewy Brookies are a decadent hybrid of brownies and cookies, boasting a crackly top, gooey center, and rich chocolate flavor in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 95 g (¾ cups) plain (all-purpose) flour
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 225 g (1 ¼ cups) dark chocolate, chopped
  • 56 g (¼ cups) butter, salted or unsalted
  • 2 eggs, room temperature
  • 100 g (¾ cups) caster or granulated sugar
  • 90 g (½ cups) Demerara or raw sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 85 g (½ cups) dark or milk chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 160ºC (320ºF) fan or 170ºC (338ºF) conventional. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a heatproof bowl, melt the chopped dark chocolate and butter over simmering water. Stir until fully melted and smooth. Add vanilla extract.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs, caster sugar, and demerara sugar with an electric whisk on high speed until light, thick, and fluffy (about 5 minutes).
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  5. Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the whipped eggs and sugars, maintaining the airy texture.
  6. Carefully fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula, mixing just until combined.
  7. Scoop tablespoons of batter onto the prepared baking tray, spacing them apart. Bake for 12–14 minutes until set and crackly on top.
  8. Remove from oven, optionally sprinkle with sea salt, and let cool on the tray for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Ensure eggs are at room temperature for better volume when whipping.
  • Demerara sugar adds a subtle crunch and depth of flavor; can be replaced with brown sugar if needed.
  • Do not overmix once the dry ingredients are added to keep the texture chewy and soft.
