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 (approx. 14 oz), crucial for consistency
- 1 pinch Salt (kosher salt preferred for balanced flavor)
- 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, ensuring edges extend for easy removal.
- 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 fully smooth and combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: To the melted butter and chocolate mixture, add one large egg, the sweetened condensed milk, and a pinch of kosher salt. Stir vigorously until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Add Flour: Gently fold in the all-purpose flour to the wet mixture until just combined, taking care not to overmix to maintain fudgy texture.
- Mix in Crushed Oreos: Fold 5 of the crushed Oreos into the brownie batter evenly to distribute cookie pieces throughout.
- Transfer and Smooth Batter: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the surface evenly using a spatula.
- Add Topping: Sprinkle the remaining 5 crushed Oreos evenly over the top of the batter for added texture and flavor.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out with moist crumbs but no raw batter.
- Cool: Let the brownies cool completely in the pan at room temperature for at least 1 hour to set properly.
- Slice and Serve: Use the parchment paper to lift the brownies out of the pan, slice into squares, and serve. Enjoy!
Notes
- Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
- For longer storage, freeze individually wrapped brownies for up to 3 months and thaw before serving.
- To make vegan, substitute the egg with a flax egg and ensure white chocolate chips are dairy-free.
- Do not overmix the batter after adding flour to maintain a fudgy texture.
