To make the brownies, preheat oven to 350 F (175 C).
Add vegetable oil, melted butter, sugar, and brown sugar to a bowl. Using a hand mixer, mix until combined. Add eggs and vanilla and mix in. Add melted chocolate chips and mix in. Add flour to bowl and mix in.
Grease and flour the baking pan. Pour mixture into pan and spread to make the top even. Bake 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Let cool.
To make the cookie dough, spread flour out on a baking sheet. Toast it in the oven at 350 F (175 C) for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
Add butter, sugar, and brown sugar to a bowl and cream together. Add vanilla and cream and mix in. Sift in toasted, warm flour and salt and stir just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
To combine, dollop the cookie dough mixture onto the cooled brownies in the pan. Spread the mixture out evenly. Place a piece of parchment paper on top. Chill in the refrigerator 30 minutes.
Remove and cut into slices.
