Recipe – Cookie Dough Stuffed Brownies

Ingredients

1 tub/tube Cookie Dough
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter
2/3 cup cane sugar
1 bag (11.5 oz.) milk chocolate chips
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup flour
2 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt

Directions

Melt butter in a small saucepan.  Mix in sugar and 1 cup of the chocolate chips.  Stir until mixture is smooth.  Once finished melting together, put mixture in a bowl and put in refrigerator for about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, mix together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt – set aside.  Once chocolate mixture is cool, mix in eggs and extract.  Slowly mix in dry ingredients until batter is smooth.

Take half of the mixture and pour into bottom of a greased 6×10″ dish.  Sprinkle a handful of the remaining chocolate chips over the brownie batter.  

Roll out cookie dough to roughly fill up entire dish (doesn’t have to be perfect) – place over the brownie batter.  

Over the cookie dough, pour the rest of the brownie batter, and sprinkle the rest of the chocolate chips.

Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes, or until center is not runny.  Let cool 10-15 minutes before cutting into 2-3″ squares.

*Note: These make very fudgey brownies – if you’d like them a little more “cakey,” add another 1/2 cup of flour to the brownie mix.

Enjoy!
