Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (177°C) and lightly grease a 10-ounce ramekin with butter or non-stick spray.
Make the Brownie Layer
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a microwave-safe bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, and cocoa powder. Add the melted butter, egg yolk, and vanilla, and stir until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared ramekin and spread it evenly.
Make the Cookie Layer
In a small bowl, cream the butter and both sugars. Mix in the egg yolk and vanilla. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, and stir until a dough forms. Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts.
Assemble and Bake
Spread the cookie dough evenly over the brownie layer. Place the ramekin on a baking sheet and bake for 20–25 minutes, until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Let cool slightly before serving for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
Read the Recipe: Go through the full post, including Ingredient Notes and photos, before starting.
Spread Evenly: Smooth out both layers so they bake evenly.
Check Doneness: A toothpick in the center should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Grease the Ramekin: Butter it well to prevent sticking.
Use a Baking Sheet: Place the ramekin on a baking sheet to catch spills and make it easier to move in and out of the oven.
