Cookie Dough Brownies

Brownies
adapted from Sally’s Baking Addiction

1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter
8 ounces coarsely chopped bittersweet (or semi-sweet) chocolate (I used chocolate chips)
1 and 1/4 cups sugar
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 9 x 9 inch baking pan with cooking spray. Set aside. Melt butter and semi-sweet chocolate in a medium saucepan on medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature (about 15 minutes).

Stir sugar into cooled chocolate/butter mixture until combined.  Add in the eggs one at a time, whisking until smooth after each addition. Whisk in the vanilla. Gently fold in the flour and salt.  Pour batter into prepared pan, smoothing the top with a knife. Bake for about 35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out almost clean.

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup mini chocolate chips (I used regular, because that’s what I had)

In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer on medium speed to combine the butter and both sugars. Add the milk and vanilla and mix until combined. Reduce the speed to low and mix in the flour just until combined. Using a rubber spatula, stir in the chocolate chips.

  1. The topping is really similar to regular chocolate chip cookie dough, except that it's eggless, so you don't have to feel guilty about eating it raw. To me, it tasted just like cookie dough, which I don't find to be floury tasting.
