Step 5
Chill the mixture for 15 minutes to firm up.
Step 6
When firm, press the mixture between 2 sheets of baking parchment to make a 20cm/8 inch square. Chill this in the freezer while you make the brownie but don't allow it to freeze solid.
Step 7
Make the brownie by first melting the chocolate and butter together in the microwave or in a pan over simmering water. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool a little.

Pour the brownie mixture into your prepared tin and smooth level.
Step 11
Take the cookie from the freezer and peel off the parchment.
Step 12
Carefully lay this on top of the brownie as neatly as you can.
Step 13
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes but check after 30. You might need to cover the top with foil if it is browning too quickly.
Step 14
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely in the tin before turning out and cutting, as the brownie will be soft and squidgy.

Amazing bake! These are divine! Don’t worry too much if your cookie top doesn’t quite cover the brownie base as I found it expands over the top when you bake them. I covered mine with foil and baked for a little longer to make sure I wouldn't burn it. I also added some crushed Oreo to the mix for an added bit of uniqueness!!
Love this?
This is a really nice idea, I've never had anything like it before. I baked it in a square 8.5in tin and the size was fine for the mixture, but an 8in would be better. I would say be careful when paying the cookie on top because some of my brownie batter went over the corners. I added 110g of sugar and it was still sweet because I replaced some of the plain chocolate with chocolate ornate which was really nice. I've only given it 4 out of 5 because the brownie corners over baked and the middle was a bit raw and I baked it for 35 minutes at 160 fan oven. But the recipe is delicious and I will make it again probably trying a round baking tin.
