  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 12 tagalong cookies
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan generously with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. Combine the butter, peanut butter, and brown sugar in a mixing bowl. Beat to combine. Add in the egg, and beat to incorporate. Add the flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Beat to incorporate. Divide the cookie batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups. Place a Tagalong cookie on top of each cookie dough layer.
  4. Melt the butter and chocolate chips over a double-boiler, stir in sugar. Once melted, transfer the chocolate to a mixing bowl. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and stir to combine. Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Stir the flour mixture into the chocolate batter. Top off each muffin tin with the brownie batter, being sure to fill in any gaps around the cookie.
