Make the best homemade brownies packed with Oreo cookies. This recipe delivers a rich, fudgy texture and chewy bite, proving superior to boxed mixes. It is an easy dessert that takes minimal prep time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 12 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped (plus 4 extra whole cookies for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fully combined.
  3. Whisk in the eggs one at a time until the mixture is smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing only until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in the chocolate chips and the roughly chopped Oreo cookies.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Arrange the remaining whole Oreo cookies on top of the batter.
  8. Bake for 28 to 32 minutes. For fudgy brownies, the center should still look slightly underdone when you remove it. A toothpick inserted near the edge should come out with moist crumbs attached, not wet batter.
  9. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang.
  10. Cut into squares. These cookies and cream brownies are best served at room temperature or slightly chilled.

Notes

  • For an extra rich chocolate treat, use dark cocoa powder instead of standard unsweetened cocoa.
  • If you prefer a shinier top crust, whisk the sugar and eggs vigorously for one minute before adding the melted butter.
  • You can use any Oreo variety, such as Mint Oreos, for a brownie variation.
