Ingredients
Scale
- 16 oreo cookies (double-stuffed)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter (½ cup softened, ½ cup melted)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat: Warm the oven to 350°F, establishing the perfect thermal environment for these luxurious layered brownies.
- Pan Preparation: Line a baking dish with parchment paper, creating an overhang for effortless removal and lightly coating with cooking spray to prevent adhesion.
- Cookie Foundation: Spread chocolate chip cookie dough uniformly across the pan’s base, creating a robust and flavorful initial layer that will anchor the entire dessert.
- Cookie Placement: Systematically arrange chocolate sandwich cookies atop the cookie dough, ensuring complete coverage to generate a delightful textural contrast.
- Brownie Topping: Delicately pour brownie batter over the cookie layer, gently distributing it to guarantee comprehensive and consistent coverage of the underlying components.
- Baking Process: Position the assembled dish centrally in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, monitoring until edges are solidified while maintaining a luscious, fudgy center.
- Cooling and Serving: Allow the dessert to cool completely within the pan, enabling layers to stabilize, then utilize parchment paper edges to extract and slice into decadent squares of pure culinary indulgence.
Notes
- Prevent Cookie Spreading: Chill cookie dough before layering to maintain clean, defined layers and prevent excessive spreading during baking.
- Check Brownie Doneness: Insert a toothpick near the edge – it should come out with a few moist crumbs, ensuring a perfectly fudgy texture without being undercooked.
- Handle with Care: Let brownies cool completely before cutting to prevent crumbling and maintain the intricate layered structure of the dessert.
- Customize Dietary Needs: Substitute gluten-free cookie dough and sandwich cookies, use dairy-free chocolate, and swap eggs with flax eggs for vegan-friendly version.
