Decadent Birthday Cake Oreo Fudge Brownies Recipe
Main Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
Dry Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Decorative and Flavor Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 Birthday Cake Oreos
- 1/4 cup sprinkles (optional)
- 1/2 cup frosting (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare a baking pan by lining with parchment paper and heating the oven to 350°F.
- Create a silky chocolate base by gently melting butter and chocolate chips together, stirring until achieving a glossy, uniform consistency.
- Incorporate sweetness and richness by whisking in granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture becomes smooth and well-blended.
- Carefully fold in dry ingredients – flour, cocoa powder, and salt – mixing minimally to maintain a dense, fudgy texture.
- Distribute half the brownie batter evenly across the prepared pan, creating a foundational layer.
- Strategically arrange Birthday Cake Oreo cookies across the initial batter layer, pressing them gently into the mixture.
- Carefully cover the Oreo layer with remaining brownie batter, ensuring complete cookie coverage.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, checking doneness by inserting a toothpick that should emerge with slight moisture and fudgy crumbs.
- Allow brownies to cool completely in the pan, developing a rich, dense texture.
- Optional: Embellish with decorative frosting and festive sprinkles for an extra celebratory touch.
Notes
- Swap regular Oreos with gluten-free or vegan alternatives to accommodate dietary restrictions without compromising the rich, fudgy texture.
- Reduce baking time by 2-3 minutes for extra gooey brownies that maintain a molten center, perfect for chocolate lovers seeking intense indulgence.
- Use high-quality cocoa powder and chocolate chips to elevate the depth of flavor, creating a more sophisticated dessert experience.
- Experiment with different Oreo flavors like mint or peanut butter to add unique twists and personalize the brownie base for special occasions.
