I have no idea what to call these, but oh my goodness are they easy and good. This recipe comes to you via Pinterest. I tried to trace it all the way back to its originator, but failed. It just kept going. So, I do not claim these as mine - although I have tweaked them and will try something new this weekend.
As the picture indicates, these were done with premade cookie dough, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and box brownie mix. Thats the "easy" no frill recipe. Here it is:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Spray the insides of a square all edges brownie pan with Pam spray. Scoop out a heaping tablespoon of premade cookie dough and press into the bottom of each square. Top the cookie dough with a Reeses Peanut Butter Cup placed upside down. Then fill up the well with your favorite prepared brownie mix up to 3/4 full. Bake in oven for 15-18 minutes. Remove and cool slightly.
Here are some tips:
You can use cupcake/muffin tins (either small or large) in replacement of the all-edges brownie pan. For the large muffin tins, just bake about 5 minutes longer.
You can substitute Rollos for the Reeses Peanut Butter Cups. Youll have caramel instead of peanut butter.
You can substitute Peanut Butter cookie dough for the chocolate chip cookie dough to really make a peanut butter exprience!
For those who dont like chocolate (heaven forbid, I have one daughter who doesnt! Eeek). Use sugar cookie dough for the base. Place a Dove chocolate in the center and top with blonde brownie mix.
This is a GREAT recipe to involve the kids, teens, everyone.
We had these at a pizza party with our soccer team. They were AMAZING! We will be making them VERY soon!
ReplyDeleteI finally found it! I will be trying these out on my vicitms tomorrow, hope they like them :)
ReplyDeleteI saw this on facebook earlier this week and forgot to pin it and have been looking for it all week long...finally...I am soooooo making these
ReplyDeleteOk. taste great but they were not pretty. Made them with oreo's and they cooked better. The center wouldn't get done.
ReplyDeleteWoah! I'm so gonna make these!! My Family will LOVE them :D
ReplyDeletethey are called Brookies (brownie+cookie). i love these. you can put anything in the center. i've had reeses, twix, and oreo so far.
ReplyDeleteTwix—yum. Great idea
Deletewow.. double wow. I just made these using refridgerated cookie dough, reeses, and box brownie mix.. heavenly creations (so good! I had 2..and then some crumbs..) lol & no I will never eat a chocolate chip brownie again!
ReplyDeleteAttempted to make these twice. Once with Recess and then again with caramel centers. FYI: the center melts down and they don't cook as well. You have to wait until they are way cooled down before you can even remove them from the tin. But I found when cooled, they just fell in the middle both times. Does anyone who's made them give any baking tips?
ReplyDeleteMight not be baking them long enough or not preheating oven maybe? When I baked the ones I made, I was a bit apprehensive about the cookie not getting baked enough since it was on the bottom so I partially baked them first for about 4-5 mins, removed from oven and let cool for a little bit before proceeding with the reese's and brownie mix. Daughter says I didn't have to pre-bake the cookie but thought why not try. Came out amazing!! and when you finally get around to treating yourself, would highly recommend a 10-15 second go-round in the microwave to warm up. total yummmmmm!!
DeleteMy centers fell in as well- and I did preheat and baked for about 17 minutes? Hmm.. they are cooling now. Even though they don't look pretty I bet they will still taste delish!
DeleteI would call these "ALL MY GOODNESS!" All my goodies in one...................YUM!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks insanely good. Just saw this on pinterest and you are making all my "eat healthy" visions disappear. I think I'll be able to hold out for a while but these will make an appearance in my kitchen eventually!
ReplyDeleteI have some in the oven right now, smelling and looking good to me already.
ReplyDeleteDo they have to be eaten hot, or can I make them and take to an event later? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAnyone else not need all the Brownie batter?
ReplyDeleteThese turned out wonderful! Everyone wanted to know how to make them. They disappeared. Had no problem with them sinking but if you do, I'd just top them with a little chocolate frosting.
ReplyDeleteMy centers always fall I just bake them around 15 minutes They are always cooked. I just melt white chocolate and using a fork drizzle over the top. I do this with everything that doesn’t look good!😜
