Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownies

As I'm sure I've stated before... I absolutely adore brownies. Know what else I adore? Chocolate chip cookies. So, it only made sense that I would completely fall in love with a Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownie, right? I thought so. I decided to make some in my "Perfect Brownie Pan" which is my favorite thing to bake brownies and bars in (it makes them perfectly even and gives them that perfectly crisp edge that is so desired)! \My daughter was having a playdate the day I made them, so I thought that would be the perfect way to get the children all sugared-up so they would run around like wild animals and burn off some of their energy... because, as we all know, 6 and 7 year old children have a never-ending supply of energy... It's ridiculous.

In order to make these chocolate chip cookie brownie bars even more adorable, I highly, HIGHLY suggest you decorate them with a little swirl of frosting and top them with a Cookie Crisp Cereal cookie. It would be a shame to eat one without it... but, I suppose it can be done! ;)
