Brownie or Cookie? You decide.

One of my favorite new desserts to make and eat...is it a brownie or a cookie?

I first learned about this dish at a Pampered Chef party. I know it is out there on Pinterest, but I'm still blogging about it anyway! :)

I hosted a Pampered Chef party a few weeks back and was able to get a ton of baking goodies! One of which was their brownie pan. Now I have a brownie pan that you can separate all the brownies while baking, but nothing like this pan. It has so many more uses than mine.

Last night I decided to make some yummy goodies for the girls coming over for a Bible study. After all they are taking time out of their schedules to come help me learn more! So what do I do best...bake of course!

To make these you first need the following ingredients:

pre-made cookie dough

1 box brownie mix plus ingredients to make them

anything you want to put in the middle (suggestions: Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (miniature not the regular size, the peanut butter will taste burnt, Andy's Mints, etc.)

This really is simply to make. Fill each cavity with cookie dough (just barely to the halfway mark). Be sure to squish it in and get it as even as possible.

Top with whatever you wish to be in the middle. Last night I experimented with Reese's Peanut Butter chips and Dark Chocolate & Mint chips!

Prepare brownie batter. Using a cookie scoop or small ice cream scoop fill each cavity to the top!

Bake as directed on the brownie box, but keep an eye on them! Use your nose more than a timer. If they are smelling yummy and delicious....they are probably done!

There weren't many left over to get a picture of. They were just too tasty!

Enjoy and happy baking!
