Description

The brownies are fudgy and moist, and the cookie dough layer is like the perfect icing on the cake (or brownie, I should say). Definitely a go-to recipe for great, crowd-pleasing brownies.

Ingredients

  • 1 bag Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 1 cup Butter (2 Sticks)
  • 1-½ cup Sugar
  • 4 whole Eggs, Large, At Room Temperature
  • 1-½ cup Flour
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • FOR COOKIE DOUGH LAYER:
  • ½ cups Butter, Softened (1 Cube)
  • ½ cups Dark Brown Sugar
  • ¼ cups Granulated Sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • ¾ cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt butter and chocolate chips. Stir constantly and remove from heat when chips are fully melted. In the same pot, blend in the sugar. Then add eggs, blending fully one at a time. Add flour and salt and beat until air bubbles form in the batter. Pour into a greased 9 x 13-inch pan. Bake for 20 minutes. Turn heat down to 325 degrees and bake for 10 more minutes.

Cool completely and then top with the cookie dough layer.

To make the cookie dough layer, in a small bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in milk and vanilla. Gradually add flour and salt. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop by tablespoonfuls over cooled brownies; carefully spread over top (this can be tricky, but I found the best way is to slightly wet my hands and pat the dough down gently so it doesn’t pull up the brownies). Cut into squares. Store in the refrigerator.

Loved the brownie part of this recipe, but for me, the cookie dough part was a huge disappointment! I love cookie dough and can’t hold back from eating it when I make cookies, but I found this was rather inedible. I thought it might get better after sitting, but ended up scraping it off the brownies and topping them with some peanut butter frosting to cover the scrape marks. Sorry, but this one just doesn’t work for me.

Yummy! I had to make a few changes – used 1/2 C of butter and 1/2 C of canola oil for the brownie part with 1/2 C brown sugar and 1 C white sugar. DD and dh are loving it. Be warned….so good it’s worth the belly ache!
