This recipe for Cookie Dough Brownies is so rich and decadent it’s almost sinfully bad. But not quite. Unless you devour the whole pan.

Cookie Dough Brownie Recipe

I’ve been making this recipe for years and I’ve got to say – I think it’s my favorite brownie recipe. There are three layers –  brownies, cookie dough (egg-free), and finally melted chocolate on top. 

Chocolate, cookie dough, and more chocolate? What more could one want?

If I’m in a hurry, I use a box mix of brownies to speed the process along. Whenever I take these to a potluck or friend’s house, I get many compliments and recipe requests.

    For real??!!!
    I’m reading this right before dinner time and… I am starving!
    Those look WAY good, too. I’m thinking they are even easy enough for
    me to make and have them turn out right! I’m not so good at cookie making, I’m trying these…

      I’d say it’s worth a try ,Melanie. I’ve never done it, but I’m sure you could look it up to see if there’s any tips or recommendations for substituting sugar.
      And thank you!
