The holiday season is coming up, and that means a lot of cooking and baking. Instead of leaving bland cookies for Santa, leave cookie dough brownies. Not only are they a soft chocolaty brownie, but they are layered with a raw (safe to eat) cookie dough.

Ingredients

For brownies:
Betty Crocker Milk Chocolate brownie mix
3 tablespoons of water
½ cup of vegetable oil
3 eggs

For cookie dough:
½ cup butter, softened
½ cup packed brown sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

2. In a small bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy
3. Beat in milk and vanilla
4. Gradually add flower
5. Stir in chocolate chips
6. Spread the cookie dough over the brownies
7. Refrigerate
