brookie

Brook-brown trout cross

A brookie is a hybrid dessert combining a brownie and a cookie, typically made by baking cookie dough on top of brownie batter: These brookies have the best of both worlds.

The term also refers informally to a brook trout, especially among anglers: I caught a nice brookie in that stream.
