Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Cupcake

Feast your eyes on these beauties!


Yummy!

Kay, don't tell anybody, but this is your snack today!  The Mr. is holding them  hostage in the refrigerator!

Seriously!

Go look!

This is the Mr's dream come true!  His two very favorite desserts all smooshed together into one glorious, lip smacking, hope I can have seconds kind of dessert!


Can you see the temptation?

The delicious, fudgey, gooey brownie cupcake with the raw (eggless) chocolate chip cookie dough glooped in the middle with a bit of chocolate drizzled on top -- just because we need it!

You know you want to make this!

Here's the good news!  It can be made all from scratch or it can be made using mixes!  You decide!

I made mine from scratch, but I really do think the same principles will work with mixes -- heck give it a try -- what's the worse that can happen? 

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Cupcake

Your favorite brownie recipe, a mix, or use this recipe:

4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, melted***
1 cup butter, room temperature
2 cups brown sugar
eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup all-purpose flour

***Normally, I'd use 4 ounces UNSWEET chocolate, but the semi-sweet chocolate sugar content with the added brown sugar causes the cupcakes to fall in the middle, which is what I wanted so that there be a "bowl" to hold my cookie dough. 

If you want a flat-top brownie OR you want to make this in a 9X13 pan, PLEASE use unsweetened chocolate in place of the semi-sweet chocolate!

COOKIE DOUGH

You could use your favorite recipe, refrigerated cookie dough, or this recipe:

3/4 cup butter
1 1/2 brown sugar***
2 TBSP milk
1 TBSP vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
***you can do all brown sugar, or you can use 3/4 cup white sugar and 3/4 cup brown sugar.  You're taste!  I always use brown sugar -- but use what you've got!

Directions:

 Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  Line the muffin tin with cupcake liners or spray a 9x13-inch pan with nonstick spray.

In a large mixing bowl, mix butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer. Beat in eggs and vanilla extract. Mix in melted chocolate. Blend in flour and mix just until combined. Scoop  batter into prepared muffin tins (I used a 2 TBSP cookie scoop) or pour batter in 9X13 pan. Bake 15-18 minutes for muffins or 25 to 35 minutes for 9X13 pan.  Check for doneness with either.  Let cool completely.

For the cookie dough: In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to combine butter and brown sugar. Mix in milk and vanilla. Mix in flour until combined. Stir in chocolate chips.

Spread cookie dough over the cooled brownies. Refrigerate the assembled dessert until ready to serve.  This is best served chilled. 

If you want to drizzle chocolate, place 1/2 cup of chocolate chips in ziplock bag in the microwave.   Watching closely, melt the chips, squeezing the baggie occasionally to make sure it's all melted.  Make a small snip on the corner of the bag and get creative!   

Don't you wanna a bite?

Charleston's Style Potato Soup

Love Charleston's! Love everything I ever eat at Charleston's. Love the blackened fish sandwich, which isn't listed on the menu but you can still order it, with glazed carrots. Love the carrots! Love the chicken fingers;  the best there are!  I rarely order them -- because it's not a healthy choice, but oh boy!  They're delish! Love the honey glazed croissant. L.O.V.E! Love the pork chops with smashed potatoes and glazed carrots. Love the potato soup! Seriously adore it! It's thick. It's simple. It's delicious! We don't have a Charleston's where we live. Boo hoo! Here's a close replica of Charleston's baked potato soup.  I found it at www.tastebook.com   I made some adjustments to the recipe.  Not because I think I "know," but because I didn't have everything on hand nor can my sweet girl cherub have some of the ingredients.  I made it and didn't tell my family what it was su

Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup

 I've been to eat at Neiman Marcus one time. It was really good! "Everyone" talks about the Neiman Marcus cafe and the things they love from there. Because I've only been once, my variety of selection is limited! However, I have had lunch with friends that serve this Neiman Marcus soup recipe. It is so delicious that I wanted to pass it along to you! If your weather is like our weather, one day you're making soup and the next your grilling out! But because these are simple ingredients, you'll be able to throw it together in a moments notice! Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup 3-4 chicken breasts; cooked and shredded (or whole chicken;  cooked & shredded) olive oil 1 c onion, chopped 1 c bell pepper, chopped 1 c celery, chopped 1 c carrots, chopped 1/2 T minced garlic 2 t cumin 2 t coriander 1 t paprika 1 t red chili powder 1 T oregano 1/2 t cayenne (adjust to your taste) 1 28-oz can diced to

Creamy Poblano Chicken Dinner

Picture used from "My Recipes.com" My picture didn't look nearly as appetizing! We've been eating this since the late 90's. Oh man!  That sounds like we're really old! This is one of those fantastic Southern Living Recipes that looks really hard, sounds really gourmet-ish, and is so easy! Whenever the Mr. requests his birthday dinner, it's always this meal! He had his 43rd birthday yesterday! To go along with his new "older" age, we recently counted the number of doctors he has. Yes, doctors! Right now in life, it's not his social outlet to visit these physicians on a regular basis . .  .but none-the-less, he has a well-rounded network of doctors that can take care of any need of his, ranging from his head to his toes. What a treat it is to get older. But with getting older comes this meal! Serve this with a green salad and dessert and you'll be the hit of the party! Creamy Poblano Chi
