For the Brownie Batter
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
- 1 cup White Chocolate Chips or milk chocolate chips
- 1 large Egg or flax egg for vegan option
- 1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk (approximately 14 oz)
- 1 pinch Salt (preferably kosher salt)
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour or gluten-free flour blend
- 10 pieces Oreos (crushed) – any chocolate sandwich cookie works
For the Topping
- 5 pieces More Crushed Oreos for extra crunch
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8″x8″ baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make removal easier.
- Melt Butter and Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter and white chocolate chips together, stirring every 20 seconds until the mixture is completely smooth and combined.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: Add the large egg, sweetened condensed milk, and a pinch of salt to the melted mixture. Stir vigorously to combine all these ingredients thoroughly.
- Add Flour: Gently fold in the all-purpose flour until just combined, being careful not to overmix to retain the batter’s fudgy texture.
- Incorporate Oreos: Fold 5 pieces of crushed Oreos into the batter for a cookies and cream flavor infused throughout the brownies.
- Transfer and Top: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle the remaining 5 crushed Oreos over the batter as a crunchy topping.
- Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
- Cool: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan at room temperature for at least 1 hour. This helps them set and makes slicing easier.
- Slice and Serve: Using the edges of the parchment paper, lift the brownies from the pan, slice into squares, and serve.
Notes
- Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to 1 week.
- For longer storage, freeze individually wrapped brownies for up to 3 months.
- To make vegan, substitute the egg with a flax egg and use dairy-free white chocolate chips if available.
- Do not overmix the batter, as this may cause the brownies to become cakey instead of fudgy.
- Allow enough cooling time to ensure clean slices and the best texture.
