It is a noun clause stating what Sami likes about brownies.
It is an adverbial clause telling why Sami liked the brownies.
It is a relative clause describing the qualities of the brownies.
It is an independent clause explaining how brownies are made.

Answer 1

It is a relative clause describing the qualities of the brownies.

"Which were chewy, chocolatey, and jam-packed with crunchy walnuts" modifies "the brownies" and gives extra descriptive information (a nonrestrictive relative clause).
