Why You’ll Love These Oreo Brownies
- Melted butter, two sugars, eggs, flour, and cocoa create a fuller homemade chocolate flavor than a boxed shortcut.
- Half of the chopped cookies are folded into the batter and the rest bake on the surface, distributing cookie pieces through every layer.
- Cocoa powder flavors the brownie crumb while semi-sweet chocolate chunks create richer melted pockets throughout the Oreo-filled batter.
- Brown and granulated sugar work together because brown sugar supports moisture and chew, while granulated sugar helps form the familiar brownie top.
- A large batch is ready in about 35 minutes because the 9-by-13-inch pan yields approximately 24 brownies for parties, lunchboxes, or sharing.
Recipe Ingredients
Oreo Cookies – Used both in the batter and on top of the brownies to ensure Oreo overload!
Cocoa Powder – Cocoa powder gives brownies their classic chocolate taste!

How to Make Oreo Brownies
Step #1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spray a 9×13 baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Next, line the pan with parchment paper and spray again to ensure it is coated well.
Step #2: In a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step #3: Next add in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt and mix together.
Step #4: Roughly chop up all of the Oreos and add half of them into the batter along with the chocolate chunks and stir everything together.
Step #5: Pour the batter into your prepared pan and place the other half of the chopped-up Oreos on top of the brownie batter in an even layer.
Step #6: Bake in the oven for 25-35 minutes until the brownies are set and a toothpick comes out clean. Be sure to not over bake the brownies. Then, serve and enjoy!
FAQs
If you want to add in some mix-ins I would recommend adding peanut butter chips, white chocolate chips, or even a drizzle of chocolate sauce on top of these brownies.
I love a nice warm brownie with a cold scoop of ice cream. I would recommend placing a brownie in the microwave for 10-15 seconds and adding a scoop of ice cream on top for the perfect dessert!
