Ingredients:
12 Tablespoons (170g) unsalted butter cut into Tbsp-sized pieces
1/2 cup (100g) semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup (50g) natural cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon instant coffee grounds optional
3/4 (150g) cup sugar
3/4 cup (150g) brown sugar packed
2 large eggs + 1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (122g) all-purpose flour
1/3 cup (70g) mini chocolate chips
20 Oreo Cookies divided
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F and line a 9×9 baking pan with parchment paper*
Combine butter and 1/2 cup (100g) semisweet chocolate chips in a large, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds. Stir well, microwave for another 15 seconds, and then stir well again. Repeat for 15 seconds until the chocolate and butter are completely melted and well combined.
Add cocoa powder and instant coffee (if using), stir well then add sugars, and stir until completely combined.
Add eggs, one at a time. After each addition, stir well, and then stir another 30 seconds (the better you stir your batter, the cracklier your brownie tops will be).
Stir in vanilla extract. Sprinkle salt over the batter and add flour, stir very well, until completely combined.
Place 15 of your Oreos in a large Ziploc bag and use a rolling pin or mallet to smack until broken into pieces. Add broken cookie pieces and mini chocolate chips and stir into batter.
Spread batter into prepared 9×9 pan. Break the remaining 5 Oreo cookies into pieces and press gently into the surface of the brownie batter.
Bake at 350F (175C) for 30-35 minutes if using a 9×9 pan (toothpick inserted in the centre should be just slightly fudgy, but not wet with batter).
Allow cooling before cutting and serving.
