Brownie Cookies

Sweetly crispy chocolate chip cookies surrounded by a soft, warm brownie.

I knew we needed to bring a dessert to the pot luck, so when I saw a friend post an image of cookies inside a brownie, I knew I no longer needed to decide what to bring. I only saw an image posted, but I figured it couldn't be too hard, right? Brownie batter into the muffin tin, add some cookie dough on top and bake. Not bad at all for such a wondrous treat! Now, what to call these delectable delights - that's another question. Brownie Cookies, Cookie Brownies, Brownkies, Cooknies? I'll have to think about it some more while I grab another handful!

What would you call these sweet treats? What's your favorite treat combining other treats?
