Is there a secret to the name? Not really. We call them “brownie-stuffed” because, well… they’re stuffed with brownies! (Sometimes the truth is that simple.) As the old saying goes, “The way to a person’s heart is through their stomach,” and these cookies are basically Cupid’s arrow dipped in chocolate. Whether you’re wooing a crush or bribing toddlers into naptime, this recipe works wonders. Ready to play mad scientist in the kitchen? Let’s stuff some cookies!
