Beat 1/4 cup softened butter, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar until creamy.
Mix in 1 egg yolk and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Stir in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt just until a soft dough forms. Fold in 1/4 cup chocolate chips.
Divide the cookie dough into 12 tablespoon-sized portions and freeze for 10 to 15 minutes.

Heat the oven to 350°F. Line a standard 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners and lightly spray the liners.
Prepare 1 box chocolate brownie mix with the eggs, oil, and water listed on the package.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons prepared brownie batter into each of the 12 lined muffin cups.
Place 1 chilled cookie dough portion in the center of each cup. Cover each portion with 1 to 2 tablespoons brownie batter, leaving room at the top of each liner.
Bake the 12 cups at 350°F for 25 to 35 minutes, until the edges are set and a tester in the brownie portion comes out with moist crumbs. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes before serving.

Refrigerated store-bought cookie dough may replace the homemade dough; divide it into 12 tablespoon-sized portions and chill before using.

Test the brownie near an edge, not through the cookie dough center.
