Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownies

OK, so I just had these last night and they were so yummy! I haven't made them, yet -- but I sure enjoyed eating them -- so here's the recipe. (Courtesy of Kellie Munster)

Brownies
1/2 cup butter or marg
2 squares unsweetened chocolate
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup chopped nuts (I would leave these out)

Melt butter and chocolate. Remove from heat and stir in sugar. Add eggs and vanilla, beat lightly just until combined (don't over beat). Stir in flour and nuts. Spread batter into a greased 9 x 13 pan.

Cookie Dough
(This looks just like the Toll House recipe)

2 1/4 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup butter/marg (I would use 1/2 butter and 1/2 shortening)
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 large eggs
2 cups chocolate chips
1 cup chopped nuts (I would leave these out)

Combine flour, baking soda & salt. Beat butter sugars and vanilla in a large mixing bowl until creamed. Add eggs. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts. Drop dough by tablespoons evenly in brownie batter.

Bake brownies 35-40 minutes on 350 or until toothpick comes out almost clean. Cool completely and frost with frosting.

Frosting
4 oz semi sweet chocolate
3 Tbsp butter
3 Tbsp hot water
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Melt chocolate and butter. Remove from heat and stir in water and powdered sugar. Mix well and spread over brownies!
