Hello, Friday and hello weekend!  Not only is it Friday which is always a cause to celebrate, it also happens to be the day before Valentine’s Day which is commonly referred to as Galentine’s Day – a day all about celebrating, supporting, and encouraging the ladies in your life.  Definitely something I can get behind!  I don’t know about you, but I can always count on my girlfriends to share a large slice of chocolate dessert with and that’s exactly what kind of recipe I’m sharing today.

This Brownie Batter Chocolate Tart is a chocolate lover’s dream and was totally inspired by a new-to-me cookie find that I spied a few weeks ago during a grocery run.  Brownie Batter flavored cookies?  Is it any wonder that two bags instantly jumped into my cart?  My mind was instantly spinning on what I could create using them and the thought of covering said cookies with even more chocolate seemed to be the only logical choice.  Surely your brain works like this too, right?

      I'm definitely a brownie type of girl - move over cake! As for the brownie brittle, I'm thinking it would work as a substitute although it might be a bit "crunchier" than the crust using the cookies. Thanks so much, Krystle!
