no scales = cookies that look like they’ve been made by a 3 year old

Inspired by a fun, improvised baking session, these cookies are a cross between a brownie and a cookie—often called 'brookies'. They feature a deeply rich, dark chocolate dough with a fudgy center and crisp edges, studded with pockets of melted white chocolate or marshmallow. Despite the 'rustic' appearance that comes from baking without scales, this recipe provides the precise measurements needed to recreate that delicious, messy charm intentionally.
