Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Base
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter
- 2 cups White Chocolate Chips
- 1 large Egg
- 1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk (approximately 14 oz)
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
Cookies and Cream
- 15 Oreos, crushed
- 5 Oreos, additional crushed for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8″x8″ baking pan with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the brownies.
- Melt butter and chocolate: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the unsalted butter and white chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth.
- Mix wet ingredients: Whisk in the large egg, sweetened condensed milk, and salt into the melted mixture until well combined and smooth.
- Add flour: Gradually fold in the all-purpose flour, being careful not to overmix, until just combined to preserve the fudgy texture.
- Incorporate crushed cookies: Stir the 15 crushed Oreos into the brownie batter evenly for the signature cookies and cream flavor.
- Pour batter: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
- Add topping: Sprinkle the remaining 5 crushed Oreos evenly over the top of the batter for extra crunch and visual appeal.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan for at least 1 hour before cutting into squares to ensure clean cuts and optimal texture.
Notes
- Use margarine as a substitute for butter if dairy-free or allergic.
- For a vegan substitute, replace the egg with a flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 3 tbsp water, let sit for 5 minutes).
- Gluten-free flour can be substituted to make the recipe gluten-free.
- Ensure not to overbake – brownies should be fudgy, not dry.
- Letting brownies cool completely before slicing helps maintain their shape and prevents crumbling.
