Recipes

Cookie Dough Topped Brownies

Cookie Dough Topped BrowniesMy husband is a huge cookie dough fan. I don't let him eat actual cookie dough because I'm squeamish about raw eggs. There are no raw eggs and less flour in this "dough" so he can munch on these in moderation! They're super rich so a little goes a long way with one batch. Any cookie dough fan will love these.
