Ingredients

Scale

For the Brownie Layer:

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Cookie Layer:

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 12 Oreo cookies, halved

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. Prepare the Brownie Layer: In a medium bowl, combine the melted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Stir until smooth. Add the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract and mix until well combined. Then add the flour, cocoa powder, and salt, stirring until just combined. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
  3. Prepare the Cookie Layer: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Assemble the Brookies: Spoon the cookie dough over the brownie layer, spreading it evenly. Press the halved Oreo cookies into the top of the cookie layer.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, but not wet batter.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the brookies to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, cut into squares and enjoy your delicious Oreo Brookies!

Notes

  • Use parchment paper for easier removal from the pan and cleaner edges.
  • Do not overbake to keep brookies moist – check with a toothpick after 30 minutes.
  • Ensure butter for the cookie layer is softened for proper creaming with sugars.
  • You can substitute Oreo cookies with any sandwich cookies or add nuts for variation.
  • Store brookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
