How to Make Two Tone Fudge Brownies

  1. **Prepare the Brownie Layer:** In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1 cup (6 ounces) of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Let cool slightly.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gently stir in the cooled melted chocolate.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Stir in 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional).
  8. Pour batter into a greased 13x9x2-inch baking pan and spread evenly.
  9. **Bake the Brownie Layer:** Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 16-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  10. Let cool completely on a wire rack before adding the topping.
  11. **Prepare the Cookie Dough Topping:** In a medium bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, and 1/2 cup packed brown sugar and 1/4 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  12. Beat in 1/4 cup milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  13. Gradually add 1 cup all-purpose flour, mixing until just combined.
  14. Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips.
  15. **Assemble the Brownies:** Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough topping evenly over the cooled brownie layer.
  16. Gently spread the cookie dough to create an even layer.
  17. **Chill and Serve:** Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the topping to set. Cut into squares and serve chilled.
  18. Store leftover brownies in the refrigerator for up to a week.
