Praline Brookies

Praline Brookies
INGREDIENTS:
1 box (19.5 oz) fudge brownie mix
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup water
2 eggs
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 roll (16.5 oz) Pillsbury® refrigerated chocolate chip cookies
Vanilla ice cream, if desired
DIRECTIONS:
1. Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark pan). Spray 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.
 Make brownie mix as directed on box using oil, water and eggs. Spread batter evenly
 in pan. Bake 25 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, in-quart saucepan, heat butter, milk, granulated sugar, brown sugar,
   pecans and vanilla to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to
   medium-low; simmer 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; set aside
   until brownies are baked.
3. Immediately pour praline mixture evenly over partially baked brownies. Cut cookie
   dough crosswise into 4 equal pieces; cut each piece into 4 slices. Carefully place
   slices in 3 rows of 5 slices each, using last slice to fill in spaces. (Spaces between
   cookie dough pieces will spread during baking to cover top.)
4. Bake 23 to 28 minutes longer or until cookie topping is deep golden brown. If serving
   as bars, cool 2 hours; cut into 6 rows by 4 rows. If serving with ice cream as
   dessert, cool 20 to 30 minutes; cut into 4 rows by 3 rows.
