For the Brookie Dough
95 g (¾ cup) all-purpose flour
15 g (2 tbsp) unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp (4 g) baking powder
¼ tsp (1.5 g) salt
225 g (1¼ cups) chopped dark chocolate
56 g (¼ cup) butter, salted or unsalted
2 large eggs, room temperature
100 g (¾ cup) granulated sugar
90 g (½ cup) Demerara sugar
1 tsp (5 ml) pure vanilla extract
85 g (½ cup) dark or milk chocolate chips
1. Preheat your oven to 160 °C (320 °F) fan or 170 °C (338 °F) conventional and line a baking tray with parchment.
2. In a heatproof bowl over simmering water, melt the dark chocolate and butter together until smooth. Stir in vanilla and set aside.
3. In a bowl, whisk eggs with caster and Demerara sugars on high until very light, thick, and ribbon-trail forming, about 5 minutes.
4. Sift flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt into a bowl; stir in chocolate chips.
5. Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the whipped eggs gently, then fold in dry ingredients just until combined.
6. Use a tablespoon or cookie scoop to portion dough onto the tray, spacing well apart.
7. Bake 12–14 minutes until set with a crackly top.
8. Optionally sprinkle sea salt immediately; cool on tray 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
Watch the chocolate closely to avoid overheating when melting.
Maintain airiness by folding gently—don’t overmix.
Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookies.
Cooling on the tray helps the cookies firm up.
Demerara sugar adds a delightful crunch; substitute turbinado if needed.
