Oreo Brownie Cookie Cake - FAIL!!

I'm not going to link this one because I don't want to make anyone feel bad.  I've seen this recipe all over Pinterest, and it should have been amazing.  It wasn't.  Maybe I did something wrong??  A layer of chocolate chip cookie dough, topped with a layer of oreos, topped with a layer of brownies.  This should have been the best thing ever, it sounded like a genius created it.  But the brownie batter wouldn't cook enough, and the cookie dough layer was crunchy and practically burnt.  It was really sad.  And a serious waste of cookie dough that I would have been happy to eat from the bowl. :o)
