Flakey. Crisp, but chewy and fudgey in the best way. Not overly sweet. Goes very well with ice cream. It’s a brownie. But it’s a cookie. I guess this just means you won’t have to cut it out of a brownie pan.
Enter: The Brownie Cookie (If you think I’m gonna shorten this to brookie, you can leave.)
This glorious treat was everything I wanted. It was melty and gooey when warm, and it absolutely flaked up like the top of a perfectly baked brownie. I don’t think I can say enough nice things about it.
“Dear Mr or Mrs Brownie & Cookie,
We’re writing home to tell you that your offspring is just delectable. Junior brownie cookie has exceeded expectations in all of its subjects of chocolate, dipping, and splitting into groups. We just want to say how proud we are of your sweet little morsel.
Sincerely,
The School for the Gifted”
“Paint me like one of your French Girls,’ she asked, lying in her dinosaur onesie across a well loved cookie. It was dangerous resting over a small sea of milk, but she knew that it was the danger that made it so appealing.”
“I can’t reach it!’
She cried out, being so close to having everything she wanted: Comfort in this wonderful dinosaur onesie, and food comfort in this larger than life cookie she was aiming to steal a taste of. If only she didn’t suffer from t-rex syndrome; having arms that are just too short to help with anything useful.”

Alright I’m done. But really – take this as your weekend side project. These cookie bros won’t let you down and will certainly curb any chocolate cravings in a pinch.
