Do these treats taste just like a Tagalong cookie? Nope. And I never claimed that they did. What do you get when you cross a cookie with a brownie? A Brookie! That's where they are different. I never met a Girl Scout who sold brownies and these cookies are part brownie. Maybe that's what I should have called them, Brownie Stuffed Tagalong Bars. Or Tagalong Brookies. What about Chocolate Peanut Butter Brookies. Any way you slice it, they sound pretty good. Don't you think?

Shortbread Cookie Crust Layer
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 powdered sugar
2 sticks butter
Brownie Layer
1 box of brownie mix, I prefer Betty Crocker's Dark Chocolate
Ingredients called for in directions on back of box
1/4 cup hot fudge ice cream topping
Peanut Butter Layer {Look familiar? It's one of my favorite frosting recipes.}
2 sticks butter, softened
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (don't use the natural kinds that you have to stir, or the old-fashioned brands)
1 3/4 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Chocolate Glaze
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
8 Tablespoons (1 stick) butter

*Note - I like to line my baking dish with foil, leaving an in or two overhang so I can pull the brownies out of the dish before cutting them. You can totally skip this step, but the brownies aren't quite...
