Brookies.......2 varieties

A couple of fun ways to change up Brownies and Cookies into one delicious Brookie!!
1 scoop of brownie batter + 1 scoop of cookie dough in a muffin pan = brookies!

Peanut Butter Cup Brookies…
Bring to boil: 
1 cup butter
1 cup water
2 Tbsp cocoa
Remove from heat; let cool.
Mix in:
2 cups sugar
1 tsp soda
2 cups flour
½ cup buttermilk
½ tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray or grease 40 mini-muffin cups. Spoon batter evenly into muffin cups, about 1 heaping teaspoon in each.
Bake for 13 to 15 minutes or until top is set and toothpick inserted into center comes out slightly moist.
After brownies are out of the oven, wait for centers to fall. This will happen upon cooling. If not then tap the centers with teaspoon, this will make a indent for peanut butter.
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup mini peanut butter chips
1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
Over low heat, warm creamy peanut butter. While brownies are still warm spoon about half teaspoon warm peanut butter into the center of each brownie; top with mini chocolate chips and mini peanut butter chips. Cool completely in pan. Remove from pan and serve.

the next variety.....

Brookies                                                 fills 24 regular sized muffin tins 
Make brownie mix according to box directions. Using medium cookie scoop place batter in sprayed muffin tins.  Then I made 1/2 batch of my Pan Cookie recipe and dropped it on top of the brownie batter.  Bake at 350 for 20 to 22 minutes.  Allow to cool in pans for 10 to 15 minutes and then remove from pan.

1/2 c. butter or margarine, softened
3/8 c. sugar
3/8 c. brown sugar
1/2 t. vanilla
1 egg
1 1/4 c. flour
1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. baking soda
1/2 c. each of MINI peanut butter & semi-sweet chocolate chips
Cream together:  butter, sugars and vanilla.
Add egg and beat well.  Stir in dry ingredients.  Stir in chips.  Spray your pans & Bake at 350.  For Brookies bake for 20 minutes.  For pan cookies bake for 15 minutes.
