Cookie Dough Brownies

Brownie layer:
2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup cocoa
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla

In a mixing bowl, combine sugar, flour and cocoa.  Add oil, eggs and vanilla; beat at medium speed for 3 minutes.  Pour into a 9x11 pan.  Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, or until they test completely done.  Let stand to cool completely.

Cookie dough layer:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
2 Tbsp milk
2 tsp vanilla
1 cup flour

Cream butter and sugars together.  Add  milk and vanilla and mix well.  Beat in flour, spread over the cooled brownie layer.  Chill until firm.

Chocolate topping:

1/2 pkg semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 Tbsp shortening

For glaze topping, melt chocolate chips and shortening in a saucepan.  Stirring until smooth.  Spread over the chilled cookie dough later.  Let stand to harden the chocolate.

Enjoy!


**My notes about this recipe.**  I think the brownie recipe is a little dense.  If I were to make this again I think I would use my regular homemade brownie recipe instead of this given one.  Then the cookie dough layer is not thick enough! ;)  I think I might double it next time so you taste a little more cookie dough and a little less brownie. But that is just my personal opinion!

My kids love it, so they will enjoy this dessert for the next few days. lol
