Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Buttercream Brownies...they are major addicting! Whoa!!!
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough + Buttercream Frosting
Yep, that is what I said. I ask you...does it get any better than that? Could it, really?
Well, I can think of a few ways, unless you just want to eat cookie dough frosting, which is totally fine, I won't tell.
Oh, a few ways? Cupcakes, cakes, brownies and cookies. The 'chosen one' for this post, is brownies!
I love brownies! We have always had a 'lust' thing for each other. 🙂
Add a little chocolate chip
bling to that glorious cookie dough buttercream, and you get the best brownies! Everyone will go bonkers over these sweet treats, that are awe-mazing!
Each day is always better with these fudgy brownies frosted with a delicious layer of light, buttery, creamy cookie dough buttercream frosting, adorned with chocolate chips. Perfect for parties and get-togethers for a fun treat! Enjoy! The brownies are really good in the fridge too! The frosting firms up tasting like actual cookie dough!
Who can resist these brownies?
