Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownies

One of my favorite things is eating cookie dough. I think I would rather eat the dough than the actual cookie. So when I saw these I knew I had to make them. It's a rich, fudgy brownie topped with straight cookie dough...uncooked. Now don't worry, there's no eggs in the dough so it's completely safe:) Wow, such a perfect combination!

Brownies:

1 cup butter

3/4 cup cocoa

2 1/4 cup sugar

1/2 t salt

3 eggs

1 t vanilla

1 1/4 cup flour

1/2 t baking powder

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Prepare 9x13 baking pan by spraying with cooking spray. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Add cocoa, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Add sugar, salt, eggs and vanilla. Beat with a spoon until combined. Add flour and baking powder and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips. Spread batter into pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Allow brownies to cool completely before moving on to the next step.

Cookie Dough:

1 cup butter, softened

1 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup sugar

4 T milk

2 t vanilla

2 cups flour

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Combine first 5 ingredients in a mixing bowl and cream together. Add flour and stir until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Spread in an even layer on top of the cooled brownies. Chill before adding chocolate glaze.

Chocolate Glaze:

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 T oil

Melt chocolate with butter and stir until smooth. I do this in the microwave in 20 second increments. Spread the glaze over the chilled cookie dough layer.
