Method

1. 1 Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a 9x9 inch pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal.
2. 2 Melt the butter and white chocolate for the brownie batter in a heatproof bowl over a double boiler or in short bursts in the microwave.
3. 3 Whisk in the sugar until smooth, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each.
4. 4 Add a dash of vanilla and the matcha powder, then fold in the flour and salt until fully incorporated. Set aside.
5. 5 For the cookie dough, brown the butter in a pan until nutty and aromatic, then let it cool slightly.
6. 6 Mix the cooled brown butter with both sugars until smooth, then add the egg and vanilla, mixing until combined.
7. 7 Fold in the flour, baking soda, and salt until a soft cookie dough forms.
8. 8 Using an ice cream scoop, alternate scoops of brownie batter and cookie dough across the prepared pan, gently pressing to fill gaps and create a marbled effect.
9. 9 Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly soft.
10. 10 Cool completely in the pan before lifting out and slicing into squares.
