Ingredients
Base Layer
- 1 (17.5 ounce) package chocolate chip cookie dough
Middle Layer
- 1 (14.3 ounce) package Oreo cookies
Top Layer
- 1 (18.3 ounce) package brownie mix
- Ingredients called for on the brownie mix package (typically eggs, oil, and water; quantities as per package instructions)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking pan to ensure the dessert doesn’t stick.
- Press Cookie Dough: Evenly press the chocolate chip cookie dough into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to create a firm base layer.
- Add Oreo Layer: Arrange a single layer of Oreo cookies directly on top of the pressed cookie dough, covering the surface evenly.
- Mix Brownie Batter: Prepare the brownie mix according to the package directions, typically involving mixing the provided brownie mix powder with specified amounts of eggs, oil, and water until smooth.
- Pour Brownie Batter: Pour the prepared brownie batter evenly over the Oreo cookies, spreading gently to cover the entire cookie layer but not disturbing the Oreo placement significantly.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached, indicating the brownies are perfectly cooked.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan to set properly before cutting into squares and serving.
Notes
- Ensure the cookie dough is spread evenly to provide a stable base for the Oreo layer.
- You can substitute Oreos for other sandwich cookies if preferred.
- Adjust baking time slightly if using glass or dark metal pans as they affect heat conduction.
- For easier cutting, chill the baked dessert briefly before slicing.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
