Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Frosting is everything the name touts! It is peanut butter, it is cookie dough, and it is all in frosting form. Chocolate chips finish this frosting off, adding the perfect texture. You can layer it on brownies, cupcakes, cakes, or eat it with a spoon!
So let’s talk about cookie dough frosting. This Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Frosting is hands down one of my absolute favorite frostings. I am a sucker for anything cookie dough and this frosting just might top the list of my favorite cookie dough treats. Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Frosting is every bit as delectable as the original, but loaded with peanut butter. My Cowboy was a little enraptured by it :).
Because brownies are my favorite thing to eat Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Frosting with, I am also going to show you where to go for my favorite brownie recipe. You can find it by clicking here. It is a moist, fudge-y, chocolate-y, and butter-y brownie. I have searched high and low for years to find my favorite brownie recipe and this is it! It is the same brownie as is pictured in these photos. It is easy and so fast, no mixer is required!
The brownie may appear a little drowned out, because we love lots of frosting :). The 1:1 ratio is about perfect for me. Fortunately, My Cowboy feels the same way about frosting as I do. Just anther reason we are a match made in heaven.
I feel confident this frosting will please the lovers of peanut butter and cookie dough out there. Let me know what you think! I hope you love this recipe as much as I do and enjoy slathering it on whatever treat you choose, however thick or thin you like. So you know, eating it on a spoon really is a good option ;).
- 1/2 cup butter, soft
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup flour
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- cream or milk, as needed, for consistency (I prefer cream, but either works)
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- Cream the butter, peanut butter, and brown sugar 1-2 minutes. Add the vanilla and mix another minute. Next, add the flour and mix well. Add the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, mixing well between each addition. Mix in cream or milk, as needed, until the frosting is the texture you like. I usually add 2-4 tablespoons. Fold in chocolate chips. Enjoy this frosting on brownies, cake, cupcakes, cookies, or by the spoonful! Refrigerate leftovers.
