Cookie Dough Brownie Bars
Ingredients:
1 package refridgerated chocolate chip cookie dough (with the break-apart pieces)
1 box brownie mix
1 bag Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
oil, eggs, and water per brownie mix instructions
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350; smoosh 1.5 squares of break-apart refrigerated cookie dough into the bottom of each well. (I'm using my awesome Pampered Chef brownie pan!!) Place Reese cup upside down on top of cookie dough. Top with prepared box brownie mix, filling 3/4 full. Bake for 18 minutes.
This is what the finished product will look like...
Husband Review:
He was not a fan. Dan didn't care for the brownies on top. He said that maybe if it was a better brownie mix, then they would have been better. They weren't bad, but they definitely weren't my favorite either. These didn't seem to bake very well for me. I don't know if it was the Reeses in the middle that made for awkward baking or the fact that there was too much stuff going on inside each little compartment. I'd try it again maybe with a different cookie/brownie mixture and see if something works better.

We made these tonight and they are cooling the pan as I type. I did scoop one out and it tastes really good. Ours also looked thicker than yours. Weird. Thanks for the recipe!!
ReplyDelete(PS, we did try some without the Reese's in the middle and it still tasted good - a bit gooier than the ones with Reese's. That is partly due to the fact that we only had 8 Reese's and had to leave 4 empty... and I may or may not have filled the ones without the Reese's just as full as the Reese's ones.)
