These cookie crust brownie batter cookie dough bars are reportedly "unreallll" and easy to make, featuring a crunchy cookie base, a rich brownie layer, and a crumbled cookie dough topping.
For the cookie crust: Blend 1 1/2 cups of your cookie of choice, then add 3 tablespoons of melted vegan butter and 1 tablespoon of almond butter. Continue blending until a crust forms. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9x5 inch baking pan.
For the brownie layer: In a separate bowl, mix together 1/3 cup maple syrup, 2/3 cup almond butter, 1/4 cup applesauce, 1/4 cup milk of choice, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/3 cup cacao powder, and 1/2 cup oat flour until smooth. Pour and spread this brownie batter evenly over the cookie crust.
For the cookie dough topping: Take your preferred chocolate chip cookie dough (e.g., Sweet Loren's) and crumble it on top of the brownie layer.
Bake the bars in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 40 minutes. Let cool before slicing and serving.
