Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, or grease with baking spray.
To make chocolate chip cookie dough:
In a bowl, combine melted butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar. Add egg and yolk one at a time, mixing for 30-60 seconds after each. Batter will thicken and lighten in color. Stir in vanilla extract.
Stir in flour, baking soda and salt. It will take a minute for the dough to come together as you stir it, but it will! Stir in chocolate chips.
To make brownie batter:
Melt butter and chocolate chips in a saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in sugar, then the eggs one a a time. Stir in vanilla extract.
Add flour and salt and mix by hand until no streaks of flour remain.
Spread brownie batter into an even layer into the prepared baking pan.
Scoop or portion cookie dough into roughly rounded tablespoons and press slightly into the brownie batter. Add more chocolate chips to the top of the cookie dough and brownies, if you like.
Bake for 35-45 minutes, until cookies are golden brown and brownies are set in the middle (baking time varies based on your oven, and your preferred brownie doneness).
Let brownies cool completely for a few hours at room temperature, or for about 30 minutes in the fridge, before slicing.
