Gluten-free Brookies are a fun bar with a layer of fudgy brownie on the bottom and a layer of chocolate chip cookie on top. If you want the best of both worlds, you’ll love these Brookies!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s better, brownies or chocolate chip cookies?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I don’t know that I could pick. I love love love brownies. But, chocolate chip cookies are a classic that I can’t live without either!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than picking one or the other, make Brookies instead.<\/strong> \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brookies are brownies and chocolate chip cookies combined.<\/strong> My gluten-free Brookie recipe has a thin bottom layer of fudgy brownie with a thick layer of chocolate chip cookie on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fudgy, rich brownies combined with buttery, sweet chocolate chip cookie flavor.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You cannot beat this combination.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Years ago my Mom made some for my birthday. The idea was great, but the recipe she tried left a little to be desired. They were pretty dry and had too much chocolate (believe it or not!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So I’ve made my own version of gluten-free Brookies that are so so so good. They have a thin layer of my classic Brownie recipe<\/a> on the bottom and a thick layer of my classic chocolate chip cookie recipe<\/a> on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Brookies are the perfect balance of flavor for just enough rich brownie flavor, but not too much to overpower the cookie flavor.<\/strong> Plus, I have an easy trick to make sure your Brookies cook correctly so you don’t end up with an overcooked top layer and undercooked bottom layer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve never tried Brookies before, WHAT are you waiting for?!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, I’d like to talk about the most important thing for these Brookies.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These Brookies are so thick that you need to bake them for most of the time COVERED with tin foil.<\/strong> If you don’t you’ll end up with a brownie layer that’s too raw and a cookie layer that’s overcooked and crumbly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooking them covered ensures that your cookie layer isn’t overcooked (and doesn’t dry out) and leaves your brownie layer fudgy but not<\/em> raw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other than that, these Brookies are a really simple recipe.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

First, you’ll make the layer of brownies<\/strong> and spread it onto the bottom of your pan. My brownie recipe<\/a> is super easy, containing only pantry staples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
