HOW TO MAKE BROWNIE COOKIE BARS, AKA BROOKIES
Brownie Layer:
Sift your flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder so there will be no lumps in your batter. Then prepare flaxseed eggs by mixing flaxseed and water and allowing approximately five minutes to absorb moisture. In a microwaveable bowl, melt your chocolate and butter together in 30-second intervals and blend until smooth. Mix the melted butter and chocolate with your sugars in a large mixing bowl until well blended. Then add your flaxseed eggs and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
Slowly add in your sifted dry ingredients and mix until no more streaks of flour remain. The batter will be very thick and doughy. Add the brownie batter to a greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake the brownie layer for approximately 15 minutes, then remove from oven to add cookie dough layer.

Cookie Dough Layer:
Whisk together the flour and baking soda in a medium-sized bowl and set aside. Cream the butter, brown sugar, and sugar with a mixer until light and fluffy, and then mix in the vanilla pudding mix. Add eggs and vanilla extract and mix until just combined. Slowly add in the flour mixture until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Remove brownies from the oven. Lightly press flat cookie dough pieces on top of the brownie layer until completely covered. Put back into the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for another 20 minutes or until the top of the cookie layer is golden brown. Remove from oven and cool completely before cutting.
