Easy brownies

I just made this for my little guy's class for his birthday, and had to share with you. I'm afraid the goodness of these brownies will be lost on the little kindergartners, but I'll cut the pieces small in hopes of left-overs! I got the recipe from Pinterest, which linked it to this blog: http://www.recipegirl.com/2011/06/02/chocolate-chip-cookie-dough-brownies/ I tweaked it to my taste, and will include it here: Cookie Dough Brownies 1 box family sized brownies (9x13) prepared as directed, then cooled completely Topping: (Pretty much the Toll-house recipe, with a couple changes - NO EGGS!) 1 c. butter (2 sticks) softened 3/4 c. brown sugar 3/4 c. granulated sugar (the regular white stuff) 1 tsp. vanilla 3 Tbs. milk 2 1/3 c. flour 1 tsp. salt 1 tsp. baking soda 12 oz package chocolate chips Make the cookie dough as you normally might: beat the butter until smooth, add brown sugar, white sugar, vanilla & milk. Beat well. Next add soda & salt. Gradually add flour & stir. Mix in chocolate chips. Spread cookie dough over cooled brownies. Refridgerate until firm for easier slicing. Drizzle with melted chocolate if desired. Enjoy! I suppose you could use refridgerated, store -bought cookie dough, let it sit out to soften a bit before spreading over brownies. But, you might be taking a chance with raw eggs, so I prefer this recipe with no raw eggs.

Update: The kids in his class LOVED the brownies! They weren't as messy as I thought they might be. A super big hit, one I'll do again!
