This recipe is a tasty triple threat featuring three delicious flavors! It layers a chocolate chip cookie, cookies and cream cheesecake and a brownie all baked into one yummy dessert. Now you don’t have to choose between cookies, cheesecake or brownies, this decadent treat has them all!
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Prepare a 13 x 9 in. pan with vegetable spray.
Cookie Layer
Ina large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy. This should take a couple of minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until combined.
Add the flour, baking soda and salt. Mix just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Spread the cookie dough into the bottom of the prepared pan.Use your fingers to help spread the dough out into an even layer. If the doughis sticking to your fingers, dust your hands with some flour.
Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill.
Cheesecake Layer
Ina large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, egg and sugar on medium speed until smooth. You don’t want any lumps, but you don’t want to overmix it, either.
Fold in the crushed sandwich cookies.
Spread the cheesecake batter over the cookie dough layer.Place the pan back in the refrigerator to chill.
Brownie Layer
In a large microwave-safe bowl, microwave the butter andchopped baking chocolate at half (50%) power for 60 seconds. Stir thoroughly todistribute the heat. Continue to microwave and stir at 30-second intervalsuntil the chocolate is smooth and completely melted.
Stir in the sugar, eggs and vanilla. Mix until combined. Add the flour and salt and stir just until combined. Stir in ½ cup of the chocolate chips.
Spread the brownie layer over the cheesecake layer. Sprinkle remaining ½ cup of chocolate chips on top of the brownie layer for added flavor and fun!
Bake the brookie for 55 to 58 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean. Because this dessert is so thick, it will hold a lot of heat after it comes out of the oven, so the layers will continue to cook slightly as it cools.
Cool the brookie completely in the pan on a cooling grid. While it’s tempting to slice into this treat right away, resist the temptation! It will be much easier to slice cleanly when everything is cooled.
Notes
To step it up a notch (because 3 layers still isn’t enough!), drizzle caramel ice cream topping over the brookie before serving. So yummy!
