Ingredients

1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
1 1/2 cups Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
1/2 cup White Sugar
1/2 cup Brown Sugar (packed)
3 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 tsp Salt
1/2 cup All Purpose Flour
1/2 cup Cocoa Powder (unsweetened)
2 cups Oreos, roughly crushed

Instructions

Step 1: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine the white sugar and brown sugar. Whisk until well blended.
Step 3: Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and salt to the sugar mixture. Whisk until smooth and slightly fluffy, then stir in the melted chocolate butter mixture.
Step 4: Gradually sift in the flour and cocoa powder. Fold gently until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Step 5: Fold in the crushed Oreo cookies, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8”x8” (20cm x 20cm) baking dish with parchment paper.
Step 7: Pour the batter into the prepared dish and spread evenly. For extra indulgence, sprinkle additional chocolate chips and crushed Oreos on top.
Step 8: Bake for about 30 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out with a few moist crumbs for fudgy brownies or clean for cakier texture.
Step 9: Let the brownies cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before slicing into squares and serving.

Tips & Variations

Use dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor or milk chocolate for a sweeter taste.
For an extra fudgy brownie, slightly underbake and allow cooling time to set the texture.
Try adding chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans for crunch.
Use gluten-free flour if desired to make the recipe gluten-free.

Storage

Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. Reheat briefly in the microwave for a warm, gooey treat or enjoy chilled.

How to Serve

A single square piece of rich, dark brown brownie sits in the center of a large white plate, topped with large chunks of black and white sandwich cookies pressed into its cracked, shiny surface. Around the brownie on the plate, broken cookie pieces with white cream fillings and small dark chocolate chips are scattered, creating a circle of texture and contrast. In the blurred background, a larger tray of similar brownies is visible, with the same dark cookie pieces on top. The plate is set on a white marbled surface, adding a soft, elegant base to the scene. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use a different type of cookie instead of Oreos?

Yes, you can substitute Oreos with other sandwich cookies or chocolate chip cookies for a different flavor and texture.

How do I know when the brownies are done?

Insert a toothpick in the center. If it comes out with a few moist crumbs, the brownies are fudgy and ready. For cakier brownies, wait until the toothpick comes out clean.
