Notes

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor.
  • Cool completely before cutting for clean slices.
  • Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top before baking for extra flavor.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert.
    Don't overbake—slightly underbaked brookies stay extra fudgy and chewy after cooling.
