Ingredients

Scale

For the Red Velvet Brownie Layer:

½ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup granulated sugar
¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tbsp red food coloring
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp salt
2 large eggs
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup semisweet chocolate chips

For the Chocolate Chip Cookie Layer:

½ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup brown sugar
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Make the brownie layer: Whisk melted butter, sugar, cocoa powder, food coloring, vanilla, and salt. Add eggs and mix until smooth. Fold in flour and chocolate chips. Spread evenly in the pan.
Make the cookie layer: Cream softened butter with brown and white sugar. Add the egg and vanilla. Mix in flour, baking soda, and salt. Fold in chocolate chips.
Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough over the brownie layer and gently press to spread.
Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the top is golden and a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
Cool completely before slicing into squares or bars.

Notes

Use room-temperature ingredients for smooth mixing.
Do not overbake — slightly fudgy centers make the best brookies.
Chill dough for a thicker cookie layer.
Line your pan for easy, clean cuts.
Sprinkle sea salt on top for a gourmet bakery finish.
