Made this for friends with a little difference. I made the brownie recipe (Duncan Hines dark chocolate ) as the cake like & in an 11x7 pan. The only thing I could think of is to make the cookie recipe first as the brownies need to be baked at once.
This was an easy & awesome recipe for chocoholics. I added a few semi sweet chocolate chips between the cookie & brownie too. Everyone loved them. Thanks for the easy but scrumptious recipe.

  These brownies don't call for peanut butter so I'm not really sure. Maybe you could add a little to the cookie dough?

You say don't melt the butter for the cookie, do you incorporate the butter in the cookie dough, not clear to me.
Thanks,

  Yes, you still incorporate it into the cookie dough but you don't want it melted, just softened.

I’ve been making these for several years, and you can use peanut butter cookie dough, or any flavor you like! Just follow the directions for making the cookie dough from the package and use it on your brownie batter. So good! I’m glad to have written instructions so I don’t have to remember!

Delighted to find this hack for a dessert item from a well-known chain…
Not totally pleased with the outcome though, as they were very under-baked.
I followed the recipe to the letter, and even added 5 minutes to the max as I didn’t think the bottom layer (brownie mix — DH fudge) was done.
It wasn’t. I wish I had added another 10 minutes. Seriously.
I would recommend using a cake tester. I like gooey brownies and even the batter — but not when I am trying to cut and serve a dessert.

Such a great recipe idea, but I too, had to add about 20 min to cooking time so the brownie layer would be cooked (toothpick in the center coming out clean trick). I did cover those last 20 min so the cookie layer would not get too done. Really love how easy these were to make. I'm sure they'll be delicious!
