Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven:
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
-
-
Melt the Butter and Chocolate:
-
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and 1 1/2 cups of the semisweet chocolate chips over medium heat. Stir occasionally until smooth and combined. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
-
-
Mix the Wet Ingredients:
-
Whisk the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract into the melted chocolate mixture. Stir until well combined.
-
-
Add Dry Ingredients:
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Prepare the Pan:
-
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.

-
Add the Oreo Cookies:
-
Press the 24 Oreo cookies into the brownie batter, arranging them evenly across the top. You can gently press them into the batter or leave them partially on top for a more decorative look.
-
-
Bake the Brownies:
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs. The brownies should be soft and fudgy in the center.

Cool and Serve:
-
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cool, slice into squares and serve.
