These brownies are irresistible thanks to rich chocolate and cookie chunks!
INGREDIENTS
– 3/4 cup (170g) unsalted butter– 2 ounces (56g) unsweetened chocolate, roughly chopped– 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons (31g) unsweetened cocoa powder– 1 & 3/4 cups (350g) granulated sugar– 3 large egg– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract– 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour– 1/2 teaspoon salt– 2 cups (about 170g) roughly chopped cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies, such as Oreo
INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lay aluminum foil or parchment paper overhanging an inch or two on opposite edges of a 9-inch square baking pan. Grease the liner lightly.
Step 2
Put butter and chocolate in a large microwave-safe bowl. Half-power microwave in 30-second intervals until butter and chocolate melt when swirled. Stir smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
Step 3
Next, whisk in the cocoa powder, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk in flour and salt. Reserve 1/4 cup of chopped cookies. Stir the rest into the brownie batter.
Step 4
Spread batter in prepared pan. Sprinkle reserved cookie pieces over batter. Apply pressure lightly.
Step 5
Bake for 30–35 minutes until the edges are firm and a pick inserted into the center comes out with crumbs.
Step 6
Cool brownies in pan. Remove the brownies from the pan using the overhanging liner. Cut and serve squares.
