You know how I love Ben & Jerry's Half Baked ice-cream, so why did I never think to try it in baked-good form? I don't have a satisfactory answer, but after finding this recipe during a recent blog-stalking spree, I decided to try it. Fan-didly-astic was the result.
It doesn't have a recipe per se, (the blog used Betty Crocker packages, which are nasty) so I just made my favorite brownie recipe and put it in the 9x9" pan, though a 9x13" would work just as well. I then made my favorite chocolate chip cookie dough recipe. Next, you drop cookie-sized balls of dough into the brownie batter and press them into it a bit. I baked it at the temp the brownies called for, though they ended up taking about 12 minutes longer than normal. Just use the toothpick test.
The picture shows them with a chocolate ganache topping, which I foregoed, but I'm sure it wouldn't hurt the brownies. Two words for you: To. Die. For.
