Ingredients
For the Brownies:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 10 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped (or more for topping)
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
For the Topping:
- 6-8 Oreo cookies, halved (for placing on top)
Instructions
Preheat the Oven & Prepare the Pan:
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the brownies once they’re baked.
Make the Brownie Batter:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and the sugars are fully incorporated. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until combined. The batter will be thick and fudgy, which is exactly what you want for these rich brownies!
Add the Oreo Cookies:
Fold in the chopped Oreo cookies and chocolate chips, mixing until they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter. The chocolate chips will add an extra layer of chocolate goodness, while the Oreos provide that iconic crunch and creamy center.
Pour and Top:
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly. Press the Oreo halves gently into the top of the batter in a neat row, or scatter them randomly for a fun look. The Oreos will sink slightly as the brownies bake, adding an extra layer of texture on top.
Bake the Brownies:
Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. You want the brownies to be set on the edges but still slightly gooey in the middle, so be careful not to overbake.
Let Cool & Serve:
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once they’re fully cooled, cut them into squares and serve. The inside should be dense, fudgy, and full of Oreo goodness, while the top is beautifully topped with an extra layer of cookies.
