Crownies

A perfect combination of cookies and brownies, hence the name 'Crownies'.

Ingredients:

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 cups Chocolate Chips (Nestle)

1 box Fudge Brownie Mix

Directions:

Cookie directions: COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in Chocolate Chips. Set aside.

Make Brownies as directed on the box. Place in a greased 9X13 pan.

Drop cookie dough by rounded tablespoon onto the brownie batter, about 24 total.

Bake Crownies at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until slightly golden brown. Let cool and enjoy!

Note: You can also use a cookie dough mix, simply follow the directions. However, I think these cookies from scratch are way better. You will have a lot of cookie dough left over just make cookie rounds and freeze them for a quick cook next time you are in the mood for a yummy treat.

Hey so I tried these last night to take to a football final or something AND everyone LOVED them. Good job man.
I had to cook them for 50 minutes not 30 though.
