Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownies – Oh Yeah! {Recipe}

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my Disclosure and Privacy Policy.

I absolutely love brownies. I love everything about them. Just how easy and inexpensive they are to make. Their forgiveness if you under or over cook them slightly. But most of all, their chewy chocolate, amazing taste.  Honestly, if someone told me they didn’t like brownies I don’t know if I could believe them.

So take a homemade brownie and add some chocolate chip cookie dough as a frosting layer and you’ve got a shut the front door! these are GOOD treat. I can’t take credit for the recipe because it came from Taste of Home and my mom actually made them for me last time we visited. (Well, technically I put together some of the ingredients for the topping but still.) I will take credit for making sure I snapped a picture with my iPhone so I could share the recipe with all of you.

Recipe Notes

Makes 4 dozen.

If you want to cut down on prep time,  you could easily make a regular pan of brownies with a mix and add this cookie dough layer!

You can thank me later, after you’ve made these brownies of awesomeness. It’s ok. I’ll wait….

  1. We all love brownies but I have never made them from scratch I always used a boxed mix. So about time I make them all by myself from scratch . The kids can add as much or as little of the cookie dough topping on top of them. It all sounds so yummy. I will definitely make these for the holiday. Thanks for the recipe.

  2. Brownies are one of my favorite Desserts! Boy these really take it over the top! I can’t wait to try your recipe!!

    These brownies looks so delicious and I would like to make some for my family! I am going to save this recipe for a later occasion to make. After all the Holiday desserts, I need to take a break, but I love brownies!

  4. These brownies might taste a little too sweet for me, but, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough is my favorite flavor of ice cream, so I’ll give them a try anyway.
