Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownie Bars
Ever wonder what happens when you have a craving for brownies and chocolate chip cookies at the same time but can’t decide which one to make? Um, this happens! Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownie Bars! Yes, you heard that right; a layer of gooey, fudegy brownie, topped with a layer of crumbly, chocolately chip cookie! Yum!
What I love about this recipe (besides all of the chocolate) is that it can be made using box mixes, or a combination of box mixes and from scratch. In fact, I used a box mix for the brownie layer, and made the chocolate chip cookie layer from scratch, using my favorite cookie recipe. That’s just how I roll when it’s late on Sunday night and I have a craving for sweets.
For the thickest, gooiest bars ever, use an 8×8 baking pan. And, if you happen to have some vanilla ice cream on hand (I did not), feel free to add one more layer with a couple of generous scoops of ice cream. Perfection.


- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 large eggs
- 1 cup semisweet or milk chocolate chips
- 1 box of brownie mix + eggs, oil and water
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda; set aside. Using an electric mixer, combine the butter and sugars (in a medium size bowl) and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. Reduce speed to low; add the salt, vanilla, and eggs. Beat until well mixed, about 1 minute. Add flour mixture; mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Combine the brownie mix as directed on the box.
- Pour the brownie mix into a greased 8x8 or 9x9 square baking pan. Drop cookie dough by rounded teaspoonfuls evenly onto the brownie batter.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes. Let stand for 10-15 minutes, then cut into pieces for serving.
Now go! Make some and tell me what you think – I’m pretty sure you’ll love them as much as I do.

Those look delicious! Ice cream would make them over the top, but I could be talked into it.

These look amazing! It’s not good for me to read this kind of post at midnight on Saturday! Now I’m super hungry! I’m going to have to try and make these sometime soon!

Thanks Ruthie! I know what you mean, I think that’s how I ended up baking these in the first place!
