Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the same as a Brookie?

Technically this could be considered a Brookie, however the big difference is the cookie dough is swirled into the brownie batter in a brookie instead of adding balls of cookie dough like in this copycat.

How big is the brownie?

The order you get at Domino’s is about an 8×8-inch pan size, and is supposed to is 9 servings. 

Is this vegan?

Unfortunately no, this is not vegan. You can make it vegan by substituting the butter and eggs for vegan options. Also, make sure to use vegan cacao chips instead of chocolate chips. 

  • Brownie Layer: Try swapping in a Peanut Butter Brownie batter to give this a peanut butter chocolate flavor.
  • Chocolate: Instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips, you can use dark chocolate chips or white chocolate. Mix in some cocoa powder for even more chocolate goodness.
  • Cookie Swirl: The sky’s the limit on what kind of cookie dough to swirl into your brownies. Our Brown Sugar Cookies would be absolutely delicious.
  • Nuts: Mix in your favorite chopped nuts like walnuts, pecans, or almonds into the cookie dough and brownie batter.
  • Salted Caramel: After the Marbled Cookie Brownie is done baking, drizzle some Salted Caramel Sauce in a criss-cross pattern before cutting and serving.

  1. Per the recipe, you are never going to be able to roll the cookie part into balls. On top of that, there is way more cookie than brownie! I spooned to cookie part on and it topped the entire thing. I’m hoping it tastes ok. But it’s NOT a copy cat recipe for anything.

    1. Sorry you had trouble rolling the frozen dough. It should not have frozen so solid in the time that it takes to make the brownies that you can’t work with it. In the future you could use a 1-inch cookie dough scoop if your dough got too hard or scoop the dough into balls before freezing if you plan on freezing them for an extended time before making the brownie batter. I hope that they tasted delicious even if the process didn’t goes as smoothly for you!

  2. I am in the process of making these dominoes copycats. First u say to freeze the cookie dough part. Then u say remove from the fridge. Then to roll out cookie dough into balls. It’s not solid like dough. I’m confused. Could i just spoon in onto the brownie mixture??? Thank u. Candy

    1. Hi Candy, my Holiday schedule is crazy and this is a super late response. Thanks for asking. I fixed the recipe card to say, “remove from the freezer”. They won’t be in their very long at all. Just long enough to easily form into balls while you’re creating your brownie batter. Did you try the recipe already and if so, did you like it? Happy Holidays!

  3. They are very good. They are not the copy cat I’m looking for. I will keep looking and keep tweaking. On the plus side, these are not as greasy.?

  4. I followed instructions and the cookie batter was so runny(even after an hour and a half of cooling) I couldn’t form the balls. And the brownie batter was the opposite, it was think for most brownies and way to thin for an 8×8 pan. I will not do this one again or I’ll modify the recipe.

  5. In step 4 under Cookie Layer it says “freeze the dough”, but in step 2 under To Finish it says “remove cookie dough from the fridge”. Could you clarify whether dough is to be chilled, frozen or both? Thanks!

    1. Hello Rhonda, so sorry for the confusion. For clarification, when baking, the dough needs to be chilled. However, the dough can be frozen for up to three months. Hope this clears it up, Thank you

  6. My brownie batter became a paste not a batter, I followed the ingredients and steps exactly but I used Dutch process cocoa instead of unsweetened cocoa?

  7. This seems to generate twice the cookie dough needed in ratio to brownie dough. Although unfortunately I didn’t see the pre-oven picture until mine was raw still after 30 minutes. ? My cookie dough balls were giant and touching before baking. ???

    1. Thanks for letting me know. I went back into the test kitchen and adjust the cookie layer. I hope you’ll give them another try.

  8. Omg, 3 days making those in a roll, me and my girl are having a cleanse and not having any sugar, on the other hand my 2 boys are devouring those, my teen barely eats any sweets but he is the one asking for more every day and since he is under weight his doctor said to feed him whatever he wants. THANK YOU FOR THIS!

    1. Wow! Thanks for coming back to let me know how much your lucky boys are enjoying them. Good for you guys for showing restraint too.

  9. Does the cookie dough need to be completely frozen before putting it on top of the brownie mix or can I just put the dough in the freezer for the length of time it takes to make my brownie batter?

  10. Wow! These are so pretty and I can almost taste them from looking at your pictures! I’ve got this on my list to make during Superbowl weekend! 🙂
