Description

These decadent Cookies 'N' Cream Brownies combine the rich, fudgy texture of classic brownies with chunks of Oreos baked inside and a smooth layer of melted Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme candy bars on top. Finished with an optional chocolate drizzle, this dessert is perfect for cookie and brownie lovers seeking a delightful treat that's easy to prepare.

Ingredients

Brownie Base

  • 1 (18-oz.) box brownie mix, plus ingredients called for on box
  • 16 Oreos

Topping

  • 4 (1.55-oz.) Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme Bars
  • Melted chocolate, for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Brownie Batter: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8"x8" baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Prepare the brownie batter according to the instructions on the brownie mix box, mixing all necessary ingredients thoroughly.
  2. Layer the Oreos: Pour the prepared brownie batter into the lined baking pan, spreading it evenly. Arrange 16 Oreos in a single layer over the batter, then gently press the Oreos down so that the batter nearly covers them, creating pockets of cookie pieces inside the brownies.
  3. Bake the Brownies: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake the brownies for approximately 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs. Remove from oven and allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan.
  4. Melt the Candy Bars: Unwrap the Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme bars and place them in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Heat the candy bars in 30-second intervals in the microwave, stirring well between each interval until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
  5. Top the Brownies: Pour the melted candy bars evenly over the cooled brownies and use an offset spatula to spread the layer smoothly.
  6. Set the Topping: Refrigerate the brownies until the candy topping is set, about 10 minutes. Optionally, drizzle melted chocolate over the top to enhance flavor and appearance.
  7. Serve: Once set, slice the brownies into 16 squares and serve.

Notes

  • Ensure the brownies are completely cool before adding the melted candy topping to prevent it from melting or soaking into the brownies.
  • You can substitute the Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme bars with white chocolate or any other favorite candy bars for variation.
  • For a richer chocolate drizzle, use semi-sweet or dark chocolate melted with a small amount of butter or cream.
  • Store leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
