Take A Bite Of: Cookie Dough Brownies

In my tip-toeing through the BlogTulips last week, I came upon a dessert that I just craved immediately. AND will be making for a party tomorrow.

From the fabulous Rhiannon (aka Little Ms Baker) at Pink Sugar Desserts is this combination of two of my favorite treats: Brownies and Chocolate Chip Cookies. And it might be one of the easiest you will ever make because there are two ingredients. Now, normally, I am a girl who likes it "from scratch" but I will cheat on this...because cheating never felt so good.

This photo and recipe belong to Pink Sugar so go and visit her site, for more visual baked goodness.
Two ingredients: Cookie Dough and Brownie Mix. Thank you Betty Crocker and Pillsbury for making my life so tasty. To make this deliciousness, all you have to do is prepare the brownie batter according to the box and then pour into a 9 x 9 greased pan.

Scoop spoonfuls of cookie dough and press into the brownie batter until there seems to be a even ratio of cookie dough to brownie batter. Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F for 35-40 minutes or until the tops of the cookie dough is nice and brown. Remove from oven and then let cool.


For the chocolate ganache topping:

Melt 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips
3/4 cups of whipping cream
5 tbsp of butter in a saucepan over low heat until the chocolate chips are smooth and melted.

Pour over the brownies and then put in the freezer (if you're not patient enough like me to wait for the fridge to cool these babies off) until set, about 45-60 minutes. Cut into pieces and pig out, I mean, enjoy.

Buon Apetito!!!

  2. That sounds lovely and I will pick up the ingredients today.

    Funny as I am reading your blog I get a notification you have commented on my blog... seems to be a sign. Let me know when you can get to NYC and we will pick you up at the airport.

    The decision will be made today because if she is going to the dance she needs a dress and today is the best day for shopping.

  7. Pillbury makes a tube of premade brownie batter and a tube of premade choc chip cookie batter - you dont even need to mix the ingredients! Just press the brownie batter into the pan and carry on with the cookie batter!
