Birthday Brookies

My baby boy is 5! He loves cool cars and Star Wars, and wearing short sleeve shirts over long sleeve shirts. He is so sweet and so... BIG! I did not do too much planning for his karate birthday party, but threw in a few Star Wars things, including this hit: BROOKIES! I love them. Not just because they are named after me. They are simple to make! Ready? Here's how: make some brownie mix and pour some in the bottom of cupcake tins. Refrigerate until cold, then in the center add a pre-made (Oh the shame!! But it makes it sooo easy!) chocolate chip cookie round, the kind that come in the tray next to the roll of cookie dough, and poke it down a little. Bake. Done! These little brookies are amazing when they're a little warm, topped with ice cream. xo
