The Connor Man Brookie is back this September and Tiff’s is donating $25,000 from Brookie sales to the Connor Man Foundation to fund research for pediatric brain cancer. This special dessert bar has quickly become a fan favorite, so we’re sharing an at-home recipe to create the brookie made to honor Connor.

Ingredients:
For the M&M Cookie Dough:
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 (9.40 oz.) package mini-M&M chips
For the Brownie Layer:
  • ½ cup (1 stick) butter
  • 1 ¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
For the Top Layer (Decoration):
  • ½ cup mini-M&M chips
For Baking:
  • Baking spray

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the M&M Cookie Dough:

    • In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and sugars together using a hand or electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.

    • Add the eggs, vanilla, salt, and baking soda to the butter mixture. Mix on medium speed until well combined and smooth.

    • Gradually add the flour. Mix on low speed until the flour is mostly incorporated, then switch to medium speed until no dry spots remain.

    • Fold in the mini-M&M chips until fully distributed throughout the dough.

  2. Prepare the Brownie Layer:

    • Melt the butter in the microwave for about 1 minute. Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and microwave for an additional minute until the chips are soft and the butter is melted.

    • Stir the melted butter and chocolate together with a spatula until smooth.

    • In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the liquid eggs and vanilla extract for about 30 seconds.

    • Add the sugar, flour, and salt to the bowl, followed by the melted chocolate mixture. Mix on low speed, then medium speed until the batter is just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  3. Assemble the Brookies:

    • Using a medium-size cookie scooper, portion out 25 balls of cookie dough. Lightly coat a 9 x 13-inch baking pan with baking spray.

    • Press the cookie dough balls into the bottom of the pan to form a uniform base layer.

    • Pour the brownie batter over the cookie dough layer and spread evenly with a spatula. Press down lightly to ensure it covers the cookie dough completely.

    • Sprinkle ½ cup mini-M&M chips evenly over the top of the brownie layer. Press them down slightly to secure them into the batter.

  4. Bake:

    • Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is set and the edges are golden brown.

  5. Cool & Serve:

    • Allow the Brookies to cool in the pan for 30 minutes before cutting into individual bars.

    • Use a knife to cut into squares and serve.
