What You’ll Need

For the Brownie Batter:

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

For the Oreo Layer:

  • 15-20 Oreo cookies (whole or roughly chopped)
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional, but highly recommended)

How to Make Oreo Brownies

Step 1: Prep Your Oven and Pan

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  2. Line an 8×8-inch (or 9×9-inch) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal later.

Step 2: Make the Brownie Batter

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
  2. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined—don’t overmix!

Step 3: Assemble the Brownies

  1. Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly.
  2. Layer the Oreos on top of the batter, arranging them however you like—whole, halved, or crumbled.
  3. Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the Oreos (if using).
  4. Pour the remaining brownie batter over the top, spreading it out to completely cover the Oreos.

Step 4: Bake

  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
  2. Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan.

Step 5: Slice and Serve

  1. Once the brownies are cool, use the parchment paper overhang to lift them out of the pan.
  2. Slice into squares or rectangles, and serve! These are amazing on their own or paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Tips for Perfect Oreo Brownies

  • Don’t Overbake: You want these brownies to stay fudgy and moist, so keep an eye on them in the oven.
  • Customize Your Oreos: Try using flavored Oreos (like mint, peanut butter, or birthday cake) for a fun twist.
  • Double the Recipe: If you’re baking for a crowd, use a 9×13-inch pan and double all the ingredients.

Why These Brownies Are Worth the Hype
