Can I use a different size pan?

Yes, you can. However, the baking time may need to be adjusted depending on the size of the pan. A larger pan will result in thinner brookies and may require a shorter baking time. Or a smaller pan may require a higher baking time.

Can I use different types of chocolate chips?

Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with milk chocolate chips, dark chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, or even a combination of different types.

Can I add nuts to the brownie or cookie layer?

Yes, adding chopped nuts such as walnuts, pecans, or almonds would be a delicious addition. Stir them into either the brownie or cookie batter, or both!
