- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup chocolate chips or chunks
- 1 1/2 cups Oreo cookies (crushed and some halved or quartered for topping)
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
- In a large, microwave-safe bowl or a saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Remove from heat and stir in both the granulated sugar and light brown sugar until thoroughly combined.
- Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract and continue whisking for about 1-2 minutes until the mixture lightens slightly in color and becomes thick and glossy.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined.
- Gently fold in most of your crushed Oreo cookies and chocolate chips, reserving some for the topping.
- Pour the brownie batter into your prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Press the remaining halved or quartered Oreo cookies and chocolate chips onto the top of the brownie batter.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before attempting to cut them.
