Ingredients:
For the Cookie Base:
- 120g melted non-dairy butter
- 100g soft light brown sugar
- 120g fine sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 50ml non-dairy milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 200g self-raising flour
- 20g cocoa powder

For the Blondie Layer:
- 125g melted non-dairy butter
- 120g soft light brown sugar

Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 160°C (fan setting), and line a 20cm square baking tin with parchment.
- Begin with the cookie base by mixing the melted butter, both sugars, vanilla, salt, and milk in a bowl until combined.

- For the blondie, combine melted butter, sugars, vanilla, salt, and milk in the same bowl. Mix in the flour and baking powder until smooth, then fold in the chocolate pieces.
- Pour the blondie batter over the chilled cookie base, smoothing the top and adding extra chocolate if desired.
