Brookies

If you like chocolate...and if you like cookies and brownies then you will love this simple and delicious recipe by the Clinton St. Baking Company!  "A Brookie is a cross between a brownie and a cookie."

Ingredients: 

1 tbsp canola oil

1 tsp unsalted butter

2 cups semisweet chocolate chunks

2 large eggs

1/4 cup light brown sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 tsp baking power 

1/4 tsp salt

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 350F.

2. Melt the oil, butter, and 1 cup of the chocolate together in the microwave or on the stove using a double boiler. Let cool.

3.  In another bowl, whisk the eggs, brown sugar, and vanilla together.

4. Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture.

5.  In another bowl, whisk together the remaining dry ingredients (flour & baking powder).  Add the flour mixture into the chocolate mixture, mix until combined, and then add in the remaining chocolate chunks.

6.  Freeze the batter in a shallow pan for 6 to 8 minutes (until the batter sets and hardens slightly.) 

7.  Coat 2 cookie sheets with nonstick coking spray or line with parchment paper.  Scoop about 10 tbsp-size Brookies onto each sheet.  Bake for 11-12 minutes, until the tops look dry and cracked (insides will still be moist.)  Cool completely.

Makes 10 to 20 Brookies

Enjoy!
