  • Refrigerate the dough for 15 minutes so it is easier to make balls out of them. If you dont wish to chill, you can bake them directly.
  • Make equal sized balls and place on the parchment lined baking tray keeping a distance of 2 inch apart each other as the brookies tend to spread. Place the rst of the chocolate chips on the balls and flatten them lightly.

  • Bake the brookies for 12 minutes ONLY. The brookies may look soft and undone but dont be tempted to overbake them or they will turn crispy.
  • Transfer the brookies to wire rack to cool completely and then store them in an airtight container.
  • At the time of serving drizzle some peanut butter on the top.
