About

This is what happens when two favorites collide—spoonfuls of chocolate-chip cookie dough atop a fudgy brownie layer! I was experimenting in the kitchen one day and, like a madwoman who wants to enjoy two flavors at once, I arrived at this tasty concoction. Move over, Mrs. Fields, we’re munchin’ through. . . .

Ingredients

Brownie Base

4 oz. unsweetened chocolate, coarsely chopped
⅔ cup unsalted butter
2

Dessert
Vegetarian

Method

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 13x9" baking pan. Line with foil, then lightly (and gently so as not to tear it) grease foil.

For the Brownie Base

Melt the chocolate and butter in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring to blend. Remove pan from heat and whisk in sugar, eggs, and vanilla.

Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt.
