# Steps:

01 - Preheat the oven to 175°C and line a baking dish with parchment paper.
02 - In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter for the brownie batter. Stir in the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.

05 - Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, beating until light and fluffy.
06 - Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until a soft cookie dough forms.
07 - Fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
08 - Pour the brownie batter into the lined baking dish, spreading it evenly.
09 - Take spoonfuls of the chocolate chip cookie dough and drop them onto the brownie batter.
10 - Gently press the dough into the brownie batter to create a marbled effect.
11 - Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly gooey.
12 - Remove from the oven and allow the brookies to cool completely in the baking dish.
13 - Once cooled, cut into squares or desired shapes and serve.

# Notes:

01 - These brookies combine the best of both worlds - fudgy brownies and chewy chocolate chip cookies.
