Triple Chocolate Cookie Brownies

Sometimes,  you want a cookie. 

Of course, brownies are never a bad idea. 

So when brownies met up with chocolate chip cookies and made the blog rounds some time ago, I of course made some. Sometimes, though, you want more chocolate, so in comes my idea of a chocolate chocolate chunk cookie nestled atop a dark chocolate brownie.....

 

 These turned out perfect. The brownie is fudgy, the cookie is chewy, the best combination ever.

 

They are chocolaty enough to satisfy the biggest chocoholic, but would make any cookie or brownie lover happy, too. They are unique enough to share at potlucks or just for a special treat at home. My men loved them...especially the littlest one. He's a brownieacholic like his Mama!

It seems like a long recipe, but its only because you're mixing the cookie and brownie separately. There is really nothing to getting it put together, and they are so worth it!
