Ingredients
  

For the Brownie Base
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
For the Cookie Dough Topping
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all purpose flour Use heat-treated flour if consuming raw
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a mini muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  2. In a bowl, whisk melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Mix in cocoa powder, flour, and salt until just combined.
  3. Spoon batter into the muffin cups filling them about two thirds full and bake for 10–12 minutes until a toothpick shows a few moist crumbs. Let them cool completely.
  4. Beat softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy. Mix in milk and vanilla. Gradually add flour and salt until smooth, then fold in mini chocolate chips.
  5. Scoop small portions of cookie dough and gently press them onto the cooled brownie bites.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes so the cookie dough firms up before serving.
Serving
  1. Arrange on a shallow platter for visibility. Serve slightly chilled and let sit for 5 minutes at room temperature for the best texture.
Storage
  1. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For longer keeping, freeze and thaw in the fridge overnight.

Notes

Make sure the brownie layer is fully cool to prevent the cookie dough from melting or sinking. Use a small cookie scoop for uniform sizes. Use heat-treated flour for safety if eating raw dough.
