Chipster Topped Brownies
Now that the kitchen is up and running, I can finally make something off my top ten list.
Note: The kitchen is not 100% done, but the stove and sink are hooked up and that’s good enough for me!! And yes, I will post pictures of the kitchen soon, but I’m just too busy enjoying being able to use it at this point.
I’ve seen variations of this recipe float around the Internet for a while now. You really can’t go wrong with a brownie topped with a cookie bar. I much prefer to call them “Brookies” – it’s much easier to say than “Chipster Topped Brownies”!
When the TWD group made these, for some reason, Engineer Baker’s version just caught my eye. Maybe it was the pecans. I decided to take her advice on the ratio of brownie to cookie by making 1/4 of the brownie batter and 1/2 of the cookie batter. I also included walnuts in the brownie batter. I baked them in a 8×8 pan for 40 minutes. For the complete recipe, check out Beth’s blog (she chose this recipe for the TWD group).

I’m sold fuggy chocolately cookies sound amazing
They look so cute, I have yet to try the candy cane kisses.
How cute! I love those candy cane kisses!
I love how the red stripes stay pretty in tact after melting! Looks fabulously festive 🙂
Yea, we really like the candy cane kisses. They have little bits of candy cane in them so there’s a tiny bit of crunch.
Jen- they look great! I love your stripes- THey look so pretty!
I think these were my favorites looking back.
When do you add the vanilla extract? :oP
Thanks for pointing that out Jamie. I updated the recipe. You add the vanilla after the eggs.
