Why You Must Make

  • If you love brownies, this is a delicious twist.
  • And if you’re a fan of chocolate chip cookies, too, you’ll love these two desserts in one!!! If you count the Oreos, it’s really three desserts.
  • Plus, if you’re like my husband and having Oreos in the house is a must, that’s another reason to bake up a batch. P.S. I don’t really like Oreos, but I love these brownies!

Ingredient Notes

  • Kitchen Staples – Butter, Sugar, Brown Sugar, Eggs, Flour, Salt, Baking Soda
  • Cocoa Powder – I used Ghirardelli but Hershey’s brand works well, too.
  • Vanilla Extract – I use the Nielsen-Massey brand; Make sure not to use imitation vanilla as the results won’t be as tasty.
  • Regular Oreos – I cut a few in half to cover the chocolate chip dough layer completely.
  • Semisweet Chocolate Chips – I used Ghirardelli, but Nestles is another option.
  • Baking Powder – This is not the same as baking soda and often expires before you can use it all. Make sure to check the expiration date on your tin. And if you’re unsure if it’s still active, you can also check it by putting a spoonful in a cup of hot water. It will bubble vigorously if it’s fresh.

Recipe Tips

  • PRO-Tip: Lining your pan with non-stick foil makes it easy to remove the brownies from the pan to a cutting board when they’re cool.
  • Have your eggs at room temperature for easy incorporation.
  • Spoon your flour into the measuring cup, then take your offset spatula or another straight edge to swipe off the excess. This is the most accurate way to measure flour other than using a scale.
  • PRO-Tip: If you use your mixer to stir the cookie dough, mix on one of the lower speeds. Beating on high speed will add air to the batter making the cookie layer more cake-like than desired. I use a wooden spoon if the dough isn’t too stiff to mix.
  • After pressing it in the pan, use an offset spatula to level out the cookie dough layer. It will help make an even layer.
  • I used semisweet chocolate chips, but you can use any variety. If you like dark chocolate, try bittersweet chocolate chips instead.
