# Preparation Steps:

01 - Cook butter on medium heat until it turns golden amber with tiny brown flecks. Pour into a bowl making sure you've got 90g left.
02 - Get your oven hot at 350°F/175°C. Grease an 8-inch square pan and put parchment paper in it.
03 - Combine and melt chocolate with butter. Stir in cocoa powder. In another bowl, beat eggs and sugar till they're light and puffy. Mix everything together, then gently add flour and salt.
04 - Blend sugars with your browned butter. Toss in egg and vanilla. Add dry stuff and chocolate chunks just enough to mix them in.
05 - Start with half the brownie mix, then add 2/3 of flattened cookie dough, pour in the rest of brownie mix, and drop remaining cookie bits on top. Cook for 40-45 minutes until the sides are firm.

# Additional Tips:

01 - The center should still jiggle a bit when it's done.
02 - Let it cool all the way before cutting.
03 - It's a good idea to use an oven thermometer.
