Trying to find a recipe.

[Cheetah8799]

I'm making some desserts to bring to family Christmas gatherings. I'd like to make a pan of M&M Cookie Brownies. Basically like chocolate chip cookie dough in brownie form. I know I've had it before and seen it, but I can't find a recipe for some reason. Maybe I'm not searching for the right name or something. Simply using a cookie recipe and putting it in a brownie pan won't work I don't think...

Anyway, if anyone by chance knows a good recipe for this, please PM me or post it here.

that should work. use enough dough to make them thick, and dont cook too long.

I thought it might not be fluffy enough, or "brownie like"... know what I mean? When I use the Nestle recipe for my cookies they tend to flatten too much and are a bit crunchy, not soft. I want to go more on the soft side, like regular chocolate brownies.

maybe try adding some flour? i know that works to make cake-like brownies. never tried it with cookies, tho.

I hate how recipe sites all copy eachother. I found this one, on like 4 sites... Nobody has an original recipe to do it from scratch...

Tukin, I've helped make a dessert similar to that. Was peanut butter balls of some sort dipped in melted chocolate. I think I'll email my aunt for that recipe, it's much better than cookie dough brownies.

Thanks for the idea!

edit: here is a peanut butter ball recipe very similar to what I've done before.
