Wow were these easy to make and delicious to eat! We loved them tonight. But be prepared to need a glass of milk to drink while eating them. They were rich! But very good! We couldn't eat more than two at a time. But now that I am typing this, I want to eat another one. LOL. This brownie is more like a layered bar. Don't expect it to taste like a brownie with chunks of cookie dough. I melted the chocolate and shortening in the microwave - very easy recipe! We really enjoyed them tonight!!! Thanks for a unique brownie recipe.

I made these with a brownie mix as directed on package and baked them about 20 minutes. I increased the cookie dough frosting by half again as much since my son is a cookie dough fiend- he's 9 and he loved these- for me 4 stars but for him probably more than 5 just for the cookie dough part! I sprinkled the top with a few toffee bits but for me nuts would be better since these are quite sweet.

I'm a stay at home mom with 3 adorable children-an 8 year old daredevil son, a 5 1/2 year old princess and a wild little 2 year old girl! I love to cook, and like having my little helpers in the kitchen!
I usually love recipes that are completely from scratch (I still love them actually) but right now my focus is on having any kind of food ready by mealtime! It's a little crazy here lately. Every summer we have a huge organic garden, apple orchard and raspberry and blueberry patches, along with a woods full of wild foods waiting for me to learn what they are so I can collect them. I'm learning about wild mushrooms first, so if anyone has any tips, let me know. We also eat wild venison which my husband and I hunt ourselves. It's our favorite meat, since it's lean, organic and cheap! Some of my hobbies are: hiking, biking, rock climbing, gardening, playing in the water with my kids, or just swinging in the hammock with a good book. I go stir crazy if I spend too much time inside.
