Instructions
- Preheat Oven:

- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough over the brownie batter, gently spreading to cover the brownie layer.

Notes
- For an extra fudgy texture, slightly underbake the brookies.
- Feel free to add nuts, such as walnuts or pecans, to the brownie or cookie layer for added crunch.
