Oreo Brookies: This tasty treat combines chocolate chip cookies, fudgy brownie, and Oreo cookies! These cookie-brownie hybrids are a dessert lovers dream!
¼cupchocolate chips(some melted for drizzle on ice cream)
Instructions
Line a 9x9 inch square baking pan with parchment paper and spray the parchment with non stick cooking spray.
Chocolate Chip Cookie Layer
Beat the butter and sugar until it is light and fluffy in a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer.
Once that's nice and fluffy, add the egg and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture and beat again until smooth.
Add the flour and baking soda and mix until combined.
Dump in the chocolate chips and fold into the cookie dough with a spatula.
Transfer the cookie dough into the lined baking pan. Use your hands to press it down into the bottom of the prepared pan in an even layer (anything else you try to use will get stuck).
Put the pan into the freezer for 20 minutes (if you don’t have room in the freezer you can put the pan into the refrigerator while you make the brownie batter). Meanwhile, heat oven to 350 degrees f.
Brownie Batter Layer
Put the butter and the chocolate in a microwave safe small or medium bowl. Microwave for short, 30 second bursts in the microwave, stirring well each time, until they are melted (it should only take a minute or two).
Add the eggs and sugar into a large bowl and whisk them until they are thick and frothy.
Pour the melted butter and chocolate mixture to the large mixing bowl along with the vanilla extract. Use a rubber spatula to fold it all together in large looping movements.
Add the flour, salt and cocoa powder. Fold into the mixture gently with the spatula, taking care not to over mix.
Assembling
Take the cold cookie layer out of the freezer. Arrange 16 Oreos on top of the cookie base then pour over the brownie mixture. Use a spatula to spread out the brownie batter so that it's even.
Scatter chopped Oreos and chocolate chips over the top of the brownie batter.
Bake in the center of the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out mostly clean.
Allow to cool in the pan for a couple of hours before removing and slicing into 16 equal squares.
Serve with vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of melted chocolate.
Notes
NOTES:
We used a mixture or semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips. You can use whichever you prefer - white chocolate chips also work well.
You can substitute the brown sugar in this recipe for all white sugar if you prefer.
Likewise, you can use all brown or all white sugar in the brownie layer but we think brownies taste better with a mixture of both!
STORAGE: Store your Oreo brookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. If you refrigerate them, these Oreo brookies (aka slutty brownies...cheeky, we know) can last for a week or longer, just bring them to room temperature before eating for the best experience.
