Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking pan.
Whisk the melted butter and sugar until combined. Add the eggs and vanilla, mixing until smooth. Stir in cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined.
Spread the mixture in the prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick shows moist crumbs. Allow to cool completely.
Beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add milk and vanilla, mixing well. Gradually mix in heat-treated flour until fully incorporated, then fold in mini chocolate chips.
Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and refrigerate until firm.
Cut brownies into squares slightly larger than cookie dough balls. Flatten a brownie square and place a cookie dough ball in the center. Wrap the brownie around the cookie dough, sealing the edges.
Melt chocolate chips or candy melts with coconut oil in 30-second bursts in the microwave, stirring in between. Dip each brownie bite into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off, and place on a parchment-lined tray.
Drizzle with white chocolate, add sprinkles, or sea salt if desired. Refrigerate for 15 minutes until chocolate sets. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

Chill the cookie dough balls to maintain shape when encased in brownie. Feel free to experiment with flavored chocolate chips for a unique twist.
