3. Kylie @ immaeatthat.com says:

   I think this is the best idea. Looks like doughy perfection!
4. Nichole says:

   Any suggestions on what to substitute for the peanut butter? I have a child with a peanut allergy.
5. Kris says:

   You could easily make these into sugar cookie brownies. Omit all peanut butter and just put the dough right on top of the brownie. Add whatever topping you want and there you go! Hopefully this helps!!! Let us know how it goes!
6. Jeanette says:

   Sugar cookie dough topping sounds delicious too!
7. Cyd says:

   You could use cookie butter or biscoff spread if they don't have any traces of peanut.
8. Jennifer says:

   Thank you so much for this recipe. I took these to a meeting I had at church on Sunday afternoon and they were gone in seconds. A friend even emailed me during the meeting to get the recipe. Thank you for sharing.

    How long do these keep for?
11. Cyd says:

    We like to keep any leftovers (and that's not very often) in an airtight container in the fridge. They should be fine for about 3 to 4 days.
12. Sharice says:

    These are delicious!! My mother-in-law made them for our dessert after Sunday dinner last week, and I basically inhaled my piece and then ate a second piece right after :) I took home some leftovers on Sunday, and I just barely ate another piece, on Thursday, so it's been several days but it still tastes awesome and isn't dry at all. I'm sure at some point I will make these myself, but for now I'm just grateful my Mother-in-law introduced me to them!! :)

    So the cookie dough layer doesn't get baked at all? Just want to confirm... This looks killer good!
14. Cyd says:

    That is right. The brownie layer gets cooked and that is all. Then add the cookie dough layer as in the directions.
15. Julie says:

    Would these freeze well? Looking for some freezer meals/treats for a friend who's about to start chemo. Thanks!!
16. Cyd says:

    These should freeze well in an airtight container.
17. jodi says:

    yes it sounds much better. Not a fan of PB
18. Brandi says:

    I don't have brown sugar. Do I have to put it in or can I substitute it for something?
19. Cyd says:

    You will want the brown sugar in this recipe.
20. Brenda says:

    Just made these bars, but the cookie dough mixture stayed crumbly. So I patted it onto the brownies. But when I cut into them the cookie part just crumbled apart . What happened, I used the correct amount of milk.
21. Cyd says:

    Sorry they were too crumbly. You could either add just a little more butter, or even a little more milk to make the consistency not so dry.
22. Hanna B says:

    Cool recipe, thank you. It looks delicious and easy to do. My husband and my 4 y.o daughter will love it.
23. Paige E. says:

    Mine was quite crumbly too,and I didn’t even get all the flour added.
24. Satrina says:

    I’m a bit skeptical about eating rare cookie dough. We’re there any cases of stomach illness from eating these delicious looking brownies? I just wanted to make sure before trying it. Thanks
25. Cyd says:

    The eggs are for the brownie bottom which is cooked. The rest of the ingredients fine to eat. No problems and this recipe has been around forever!
26. Tracy Ewaldt says:

    What about the raw flour?
27. Stephanie says:

    I was also wondering about the raw flour.
28. Cyd says:

    Raw flour should work fine, but you should toast raw flour in order to kill bacteria. Simply place the flour on a cookie sheet and allow it to bake for five minutes at 350 degrees. Not only will this kill bacteria, but it also creates a nutty flavor which adds a little something extra to your desired cookie recipe.
29. Megan says:

    I followed the recipe exactly, and the cookie dough was too crumbly to use. I ended up adding three small additions (probably 2 TB each) of milk and more mixing with each addition to get the consistency in the picture.
