Instructions
Preheat oven to 180C / 350F /160C fan forced. Line the base of a metal non-stick pie tin or 8 inch spring form tin. If your tin is not non-stick, make sure to grease and flour the sides too.
FOR THE COOKIE BASE
Sift together the flour, cornflour, baking soda and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat together the butter and both sugars until lightened and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add half the flour mix. Beat until just combined. Add the milk and remainder of the flour and mix until it just starts to come together.
Finally, add the choc chips and salt and give the mixture another beat until mixed through and the dough is clumping.
Press the dough into a flat layer on the base of the prepared baking tin.
FOR THE BROWNIE TOP
In a medium bowl, melt the butter in the microwave until just melted - don't overheat.
Add the vanilla and eggs and whisk well to combine.
Add the sugars and whisk again until combined.
Sift over the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Whisk until the batter is smooth.
Pour over the cookie dough and bake for 50-60 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out with just a crumb or two attached and no wet batter.
All ovens vary – start testing for doneness at 45 minutes.
For best results, you should always weigh ingredients like flour and sugar. Kitchen scales are relatively cheap but if you can’t weigh the ingredients, use the spoon and level method (don’t scoop).
