A Handful of Everything

My husband's office was having their Thanksgiving Lunch celebration and he asked me to make brownies.  At first I was just going to cheat and use a mix until I realized I didn't have one.  So I pulled out my recipe books to find one and remembered a recipe a friend had shared.  My husband loves these and is hoping that the others don't try them so he can eat them all!

Layered Brownie Cookies

Ingredients:
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/3 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 oz semisweet chocolate, melted
3/4 cup chopped walnuts
about 9 whole graham crackers
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375 F.

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.  Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.  In a separate bowl/measuring cup combine milk and vanilla.  In a mixing bowl combine flour, salt, and baking soda.  Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk mixture.



Remove 1/3 of the batter to a separate bowl; stir in the melted chocolate and then fold in the walnuts.  Spread into a greased 9x13 baking pan.  Arrange the graham crackers over the top.

Add chocolate chips to remaining batter.  Drop by spoonfuls over graham crackers and spread evenly.


 Bake at 375 for 20-30 minutes or until top is golden brown and the top springs back when lightly touched.  Cool on a wire rack before cutting.  Makes about 1 1/2-2 dozen.


Enjoy!
