The Brownie Doctor: Midnight Snack Brownies

I saw my sister's post from the other day about the Brownie Doctor book that should be made, and I thought it was a stroke of sheer brilliance, so I decided to come up with a doctored-up recipe myself.

I hope that you've tried Ben and Jerry's Midnight Snack ice cream, but in the event that you haven't, it is, and I quote from the carton, "Vanilla Bean Ice Cream with a Salty Caramel Swirl and Fudge Covered Potato Chip Clusters." It was my basic inspiration for these brownies, which are simple brownies from a box, with potato chips, caramel bugles, mini Reese's, dark chocolate chips, and white chocolate chips added in. So basically, if you're looking for a simple word to sum it up: delicious. If someone you don't like talking to asks you what you're making, you can just give them the one worded response, "Deliciousness." and let it be done at that.

Cookie? Brownie? Brookie? Crownie?

So I was browsing FoodGawker, as I often do, looking for recipes that involve brownie mix, and I stumbled across this beautiful invention: cookie dough with brownie batter mixed in to make some sort of hybrid brownie cookie. Yes, cookie dough. With brownies batter. A combination of two of the most classic and delicious baked goods ever. And yes, if you are having a David After the Dentist "Is this real life?" moment, they are real life. And I made them. And they were delicious.
