Step 1: Place the chopped chocolate and unsalted butter pieces in a heatproof large bowl and melt them together using a double boiler or in the microwave until you have a smooth, melted chocolate mixture..
Step 2: In another large mixing bowl, place the eggs, granulated white sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla. Beat with an electric mixer for about 2 minutes.
Step 3: Add the melted butter and chocolate mixture, and beat again for 1 minute until well combined.
Step 4: Gently fold in the dry ingredients—flour, baking powder, salt—along with the chocolate chips and Oreo pieces using a spatula until you get a well-combined brownie batter.
Step 5: Using an ice cream scoop or two tablespoons, place small mounds of cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 6: Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake the brownie cookies for about 12-14 minutes, until they are puffed up on top with a cracked surface but still soft in the center.
Enjoy! Let them cool slightly on the baking sheet before moving them into a wire rack or enjoying them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Tips for best results
Storage
Room Temperature: Store the Oreo brownie cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
Freezing: Alternatively, you can freeze them for up to 3 months in a storage container. Allow them to thaw slowly at room temperature or use the defrost setting on your microwave.
Variations & Substitutions
Recipe Questions
Can I use store-bought box of brownie mix for this recipe?
Yes, you can use store-bought brownie mix as a base for these cookies. Just prepare the batter according to the package instructions, then mix in the Oreo pieces before baking.
How do I keep the cookies from spreading too much?
To prevent spreading, refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This helps the cookies hold their shape and results in a thicker, chewier texture.
What if my cookies are too soft or undercooked?
If your cookies are too soft, you can bake them for a few extra minutes. However, remember that they will continue to set as they cool. If they seem undercooked, it might be intentional to maintain a fudgy center.
Can I use cocoa powder instead of chocolate?
Yes, you can substitute unsweetened cocoa powder for chocolate, but the results will vary. Using cocoa powder will give the cookies a lighter, more cake-like texture, and the flavor may not be as rich and intense as when using melted chocolate.
