Cookie Dough Brownies

Brownies are my signature bake, but honestly I do get a bit bored of them sometimes. So I’m always looking for ways to play around. When I found a recipe for an eggless no bake cookie dough recipe I just had to combine it with my classic brownie recipe!

It turned out that they were actually a lot easier to make than I originally thought they would be, and are great for any skill level baker. One of the best things is that there is no extra equipment is needed, so really are great for anyone.

They turned out great and were a massive hit amongst the family, I’ll definitely be making them again. Although it might be better to cut them into slightly smaller squares as they are very rich! The combination of brownies and cookie dough is just amazing and everything you could ask for from a sweet treat. And lets face it how could brownies and cookie dough ever be a bad match?!
