Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownies

Oh my goodness.  I saw this on my friend Melissa's pinterest board for bars and brownies, and knew I had to try it. I adapted the recipe so I wouldn't end up with quite so many of these babies, which was a smart move.  The recipe fit perfectly in my small pampered chef baking pan, and I baked the brownies in my toaster oven.  BrownEyedBaker says that you'll want a big glass of milk when you eat these, and she was not kidding. They are very rich and delicious. Enjoy!


Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownies


First, bake a thin brownie layer:


Preheat oven to 325*.  Line small baking pan with foil or parchment, and spray with cooking spray.


3 Tbsp Cocoa Powder
1/3 cup Butter, at room tempterature
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1 Egg
1/2 tsp Vanilla
1/4 cup Flour


Mix well and spread into prepared pan.  Bake about 15 minutes until done.  Cool completely.

Alternatively you can halve this recipe for the small baking pan.


Then, make eggless cookie dough for the frosting:


1/4 cup Butter
1/4 cup Brown Sugar
1/4 cup Sugar
1 Tbsp Milk
1/2 tsp Vanilla
1/2 cup Flour
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 cup Chocolate Chips (mini if possible)


Mix ingredients well and spread over cooled brownies.


Chill bars until cookie dough is set, then cut.  Store refrigerated.
