Oreo Brownies

Hi everyone, it’s Andrew. Today I’m going to share with you my Oreo brownies

beautiful squeegee brownies full of rich Oreo biscuits. You’re going to love it. Let’s get baking.

Why You’ll Love This

I love making brownies. They are so quick and easy and they are so adaptable to different flavours that you like and things like that.

So this is just a very quick and easy bit. Really in for things like lunch boxes or if you want a quick bite to eat with a cookie or anything like that or even a quick dessert midweek.

Ingredients

• 150 grams unsalted butter, melted
• 180 grams of soft light brown sugar
• 150 grams caster sugar
• 3 eggs
• 100 grams of self-raising flour
• 50 grams of cocoa powder
• 20 Oreos (16 for layering, a few spare for topping)

Instructions

1. So before I start any of my mixing up, I have my 8-inch square pan here that I have lined and prepared with some baking paper and I’m setting that aside.
2. So in a nice big bowl, I have some butter. This is unsalted butter. It’s 150 grams and I have just melted it down.
3. And to that I’m going to add 180 grams of soft light brown sugar and as well as that I’m going to add some caster sugar. This is 150 grams.
4. So we’ll give that a quick mix just to completely combine the sugars with your butter.
5. I have turned my oven on so it is preheating at 170 degrees.
6. So we’re just giving it a very quick mix just to combine it so that it’s all one mixture.
7. To that I’m going to add three eggs. I add them in one at a time and mix in between each addition just to make sure that it’s completely combined in.
8. Time for my dry ingredients. I’m going to sift them in because I always like to make sure there’s no lumps.
9. So I’ve got self-raising flour here. This is 100 grams of self-raising flour and I’m going to add 50 grams of cocoa powder and sift it all in.
10. There we go all sifted in. Let’s give that a very quick mix and that is our brownie mixture then done.
11. Now it’s time to pop it in our pan.
12. I’m not going to put all of my mixture and I’m going to put just over half fit in first.
13. So once you have lined the bottom off and you’ve made sure you’ve completely covered the base of your pan with your brownie mix. It’s time for some Oreos.
14. I’m going to use 16 of these to line my pan. I’m just going to push them four in a row across and giving them a little squish in as I put them in as well and then four down.
15. Once you have put them in just give them a very gentle push down just to get them into your brownie mixture.
16. So I’m just going to tip the rest in and just spread it out very gently across the top of all my Oreos.
17. And once you have pushed all your mixture over your brownie Oreos, sorry, it should be completely smooth on top or smooth as you can get it.
18. And now it’s time for some extra Oreos. I’ve just got a few spare and I’m just going to break them up into chunks, rough chunks and just dot them across the top of my brownies.
19. Just give them a little push in just to help them get into the mixture and become apart of it.
20. And once you have put all your bits off cookie in there it’s time to bake.
21. So I’m going to pop this in my preheated oven. It’s going to take 25 to 30 minutes to bake.
22. My brownies are out of the oven.
23. I left them to cool completely in the tin before I cut them just to make sure that they held their shape really well.
24. So once they were done I cut them up in 16 pieces that’s how many I get out of my brownies.

Cooking Tips

When you make a brownie you need to look for the outside to be quite firm but the middle if you put anything into it might still be a little bit gooey.

It will have a lovely shiny crust and that’s what you’re looking for and that gives you this beautiful soft squidgy middle that brownies are so well known for.

I left them to cool completely in the tin before I cut them just to make sure that they held their shape really well.

Serving Suggestions

You can obviously cut them bigger or smaller depending on what you want and they are good to go.

So I hope you’ve enjoyed. Don’t forget to like it if you have, and let me know if you make them.
