Description

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup (5 1/3 tablespoons) butter, softened
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• pinch of salt
• 2 tablespoons half-and-half
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1/3 cup light brown sugar
• 1/3 cup (5 1/3 tablespoons) butter
• pinch of salt
• 1/3 cup half-and-half
• 4-5 cups powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

• Line an 8×8-inch or 9X9-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil and set aside.
• For the cookie dough: in a medium bowl (or in the bowl of a stand mixer) combine the butter and sugars and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla, salt, and half-and-half. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Fold in 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips. Set aside.
• For the fudge: combine the brown sugar, butter, salt, and half-and-half in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium-low heat until the butter is melted and the brown sugar is dissolved. The mixture should be smooth and combined.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Gradually stir in the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, until the mixture is smooth and thick. The mixture should be very thick. Let this mixture cool completely before proceeding!
• Add the fudge base to the cookie dough bowl and stir to combine. Spread the fudge into the prepared baking pan and press into an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 chocolate chips on top of the fudge and lightly press them into the batter.
• Chill until set, about 3-4 hours, before cutting into pieces.
