Let me start by giving a warning: these are the.bomb. period. they are not on any diet plan. period. but they may relieve stress. and they will definitely score you major brownie points.
Now, let me introduce you to my new favorite treat! At least to make. I’m trying really hard to lose this weight, so I have not indulged (I do not make these gluten free on purpose, or I would eat them, though you very easily could)!
I started out making them in one big bar pan (as displayed at the end) for my hubby’s coworkers. They got RAVE reviews! I had to start making them regularly because his coworkers are as spoiled as he is 
Then today, I was rummaging through my baking cabinet trying to find something to make for tomorrow, and wala, it hit me:
Make them into mini cakes! And save on clean up by putting them in cupcake wrappers!
These are sososo easy! You can make everything from scratch if you have time for that, but I use 3 thing: 1 tub of toll house cookie dough, 1 package oreo cookies, 1 box of brownie mix (+oil, egg, water).
For these, I only had 1/2 tub of cookie dough left, but it was enough to make 21 cakes!
directions:
prepare brownie mix according to box
line tins w/ pretty papers
scoop in cookie dough
layer oreo on top
scoop brownie mix on top
sprinkle with sprinkles
bake at 400 for 16-20 minutes
cool & enjoy
goodness gracious. I’m pretty sure this is sinful.
And the worst part is deciding which party I like best… the cookie dough? no. the oreo? no. the brownie? no…. all of it?!? ugh! so hard!
the bars
now, if you don’t have any pretty valentine’s papers or sprinkles on hand, you can layer all of the ingredients into a 13×9 glass pan and bake! This is the way I was making them before today
just as sinfully delicious! Let cool completely though (unlike me) so the brownie can continue to set, or else they’ll run, like shown!
What’s your favorite glutinous treat?!? Please share!
Love this! We just posted our 2nd Kitchen Fun and Crafty Friday Link Party and would love for you to share this! http://kitchenfunwithmy3sons.blogspot.com/2012/02/kitchen-fun-and-crafty-friday-link_16.html
So I’ve made these twice (in a week!) and they are awesome! A couple tips from me. I didn’t like the muffin-lined style–very hard to peel the wrappers. So the second time I made them in a 9×13 pan. I placed foil in the pan so I could easily remove the bars and cut them after they were cooked (this was perfect!). I used 2 ready bake cookie doughs (the ones cut into squares) and I used my palms to press and spread the dough to cover the pan. Then I followed the rest of the tips. Finally, I cooked at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. They will be runny and soft–just leave in the pan overnight. By morning they will be solid and ready to cut (but still soft and chewy!!). This is going to be my go-to recipe when I have to bring a dish!
