Slutty Brownies

A few weeks ago I was perusing the interwebs, mainly pinterest, because it’s my latest obsession and I spend an inordinate amount of time pinning things that I want to eat, and things that I want at my wedding. I’m not quite sure how people planned weddings before Pinterest. It’s kinda the greatest invention of all times. But while I was knee deep in my wedding pinning extravaganza, I stumbled across something called Slutty Brownies.

Clearly these caught my attention immediately. They are the brilliant creation of The Londoner, who is just pretty much awesome. Basically it’s a super brownie made with layers of cookie dough, oreo cookies, and then a rich and decadent brownie layer. They are totally slutty brownies. Or I guess they could easily be I just got dumped brownies.

So basically after I found these I made them approximately 23 times. Okay so maybe it 23 times, but the moral of the story is that these are just downright awesome. My fabulous friend Koko and I decided that these are best eaten by oneself, with a spoon, perhaps a glass of bubbly rose and some trashy TV (I recommend the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills or Shameless). They are decadent. One small bite will be enough to satisfy any sweet tooth.

You could easily make these with box mix, which is what the original recipe I found calls for, but I took it one step further and made these with my all time favorite rich chocolatly brownie recipe and my favorite chocolate chip cookie dough recipe. The oreo in the middle may seem slightly out of place because you might think it’s going to be this crunchy layer between two super soft and chewy layers, but let me reassure you that it’s not. The oreo kind of soaks up a bit of moisture from the brownie batter and cookie dough and just adds that extra bit of fabulousness.

 

So basically you’ve got to make these. They will change your life. The first 2 times I made these, I cut them right away to serve them and they kinda fell apart a bit since they were still crazy warm, and that’s totally one way to go. If you’re serving them fresh out of the oven, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream just for another layer of decadence and serve away. If you’re going to let them sit for a few hours, you’ll get a super gorgeous cut square and can grab it and go. Either way, they are awesome.

Slutty Brownies

Yield: 1 9x9 brownie pan

Serving Size: 16 brownies per recipe

Ingredients

    For the Brownie layer:
  • 10 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 1/4 cups white sugar
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup AP flour
  • For the Oreo layer:
  • 1 package of Oreo (regular stuffed or double stuffed)
  • For the Cookie Dough layer:
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (at room temp)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cup AP flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. For the Brownie layer:
  2. In a medium sauce pan, melt the butter over medium high heat. Add the sugar and cocoa powder once the butter is melted. Whisk to combine and remove from heat. Add the salt, vanilla and eggs and continuously whisk until the eggs are combined. Add the flour and continue to mix. Set batter aside.
  3. For the Cookie Dough layer:
  4. Cream together the butter and sugars in a mixer. Add the eggs and vanilla, making sure to scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl. Add the flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder and mix on low until everything is incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips. Set dough aside.
  5. Assembly:
  6. Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
  7. Line the bottom of a 9x9 baking pan with tin foil and then spray the tin foil with a layer of baking spray.
  8. Layer 1/2 of the cookie dough on the bottom of a 9x9 baking pan, pressing down to form the bottom of the slutty brownies. Reserve the remaining cookie dough to be used to make cookies later in the day.
  9. Layer as many oreos that will fit on top of the cookie dough. No need to overlap. One single layer will do.
  10. Pour the brownie batter on top of the oreo layer and make sure it's evenly layers on top.
  11. Bake for 30-35 minutes. Test with a knife to see if the center is done. If the knife comes out clean, let the brownies rest before serving. If the knife comes out with batter still on it, allow the brownies to bake about 5 minutes more.
  12. Serve with ice cream :)

My family loved the brownies. I think next time I will make them without the Oreos. I’m sure they will be just as awesome.

I saw these brownies on the Londoner and really wanted to make them. I decided to search around the web and see if anyone had made them from scratch. I found your recipe and made these yesterday. They are incredible!!! I’m an avid baker and not easily impressed by desserts, but your recipe for these are simple superb!

Thanks again!

These look amazing! My family is gluten and dairy free. Do you have suggestions on how I could make these for my family? Not all recipes can be made gfdf, so thought I would ask you before I try it!

Gaby April 17, 2012 at 2:57 pm

Hi Kristi! I’d use your favorite GF brownie and cookie dough recipes and then gf oreos if they are available? Hope that helps :)

Kristi May 1, 2012 at 10:14 am

Thank you so much!

Sara April 18, 2012 at 5:03 pm

oreos are actually vegan so they are dairy free, not sure about the gluten tho.

Dawn April 19, 2012 at 2:58 am

Oreos aren’t gluten free, but there are a couple of other good brands out there. Glutino is pretty good, but while dairy isn’t an ingredient, it says that it may contain traces of milk…

I am gonna have to try these! They look amazingly good!

I am so pinning this on my sweet tooth board. it looks good :)

If you were to make just the brownies, how long would you bake at which temperature?? Thanks :)

Reply

Gaby April 19, 2012 at 8:41 am

About 25-30 minutes at 350!

Michelle April 19, 2012 at 12:07 pm

Do you think this recipe could work in a 13×9 pan? Would you recommend using all of the cookie dough if you did that? And would that make the brownie layer too thin? I’m asking because both recipes seem like normal amounts for full recipes you would make if you were baking them alone. The pictures of your brownies look like they are pretty normal in height (and pretty insanely gooey and delicious!), but another blogger had pictures of this recipe in the 9×9 pan and they looked very tall! What would you recommend?

Gaby April 19, 2012 at 10:25 pm

Hi Michelle! I use a 9×9 pan because I want the inside of the slutty brownies to be a bit gooey! You could totally use a 9×13 pan and just keep an eye on the baking time and I’m sure it would still be excellent :)

They are great. I haven’t made them in a while. I think I know what I’m baking today. Thanks for reminding me how great brownies are.

Yum! All of your brownie recipes look good. Going to have to bookmark.

Skye April 28, 2012 at 10:37 am

Hi Gaby! This recipe is fabulous! I made them this morning with my sister. I did add one variation to the recipe: instead of chocolate chips in the cookie layer, we used mint-chocolate chips. Not really out of a creative moment- we just did not have normal chocolate chips. The mint chips add a really nice twist to these great brownies!

Next week we are going to make Knock-You-Naked Brownies- can’t wait!

hi there! I love how you beautifully display your recipes with lovely photos! you truly show the joy of baking from within. however, i’ve got a question. I tried the slutty brownies today and i realised that the top part of my brownies were burnt, but the bottom part was gooey and sinfully good. I use a convection microwave over and its maximum heat is 250 degree celcius. anyway, love the recipe none the less!

Reply

Gaby May 1, 2012 at 8:15 am

Hi Chloe, thanks for your sweet comment!! I’m not quite sure about the convection microwave oven but did you bake it at 177 degrees C? I think that’s the conversion. let me know! thanks :)

Chloe May 2, 2012 at 2:56 am

Hi Gaby! i baked it at 250 degrees celcius. My bad for forgetting to convert fahrenheit to celcius. ill try it at 177 degrees and let you know! Thanks! :) You’re such an angel!

Hi Gaby!
I loved the recipe, but i couldn´t get it right! The brownie layer ended up at the bottom of it.
Did i do something wrong?!

Love your blog and I´ll keep looking for your recipes.
Bye

FROM CHILE!

Gaby May 1, 2012 at 9:52 pm

Hi Javiera! That is so odd that the brownie layer ended up on the bottom. Can you walk me through your process and maybe I can figure out what happened?

Thanks!

Annamaria May 2, 2012 at 7:25 am

Gaby,

I had a similar issue where some of the cookie dough rose through the brownie mixture to the top but nobody had an issue with that. I’m a new blogger and I blogged about your brownies. I hope this is okay.

Thanks.

Sarah May 4, 2012 at 12:38 am

Hey Gaby, I love your blog and I love this recipe BUT I wanted to let you know The Londoner did not create these brownies, she copied the recipe and claimed she created it :( The actual original recipe came from the wonderful Kevin and Amanda blog (check the dates and the recipe here (http://www.kevinandamanda.com/whatsnew/new-recipes/ultimate-chocolate-chip-cookie-n-oreo-fudge-brownie-bar.html) Just thought you’d want to credit the real creator of these naughty treats as they truly deserve the credit.

I need a Teacher’s gift for teacher appreciation , My daughters Teacher LOVES LOVES LOVES chocolate, so …..I was thinking maybe slutty brownies baked in a jar. Do you think this would work?

Reply

Gaby May 4, 2012 at 9:30 am

Omg that would be so cute!!! I’d totally try it… Maybe just use smaller jars?

I made these today after finding the recipe yesterday and longing for them! Have made 3 batches; I chose to make the cookie base chocolate as well( Just to be sure they would have enough flavour!)
Two batches are heading out the door with my teens…. never to be seen again (the brownies that is)

They are expensive and rich and I would not begin to calculate the calorie content( as far to alarming no doubt)

Have a feeling I will be baking them again and again…..

PS One of our dogs is called Oreo but he’ll not be getting his paws on them.

As a brownieholic, any brownie recipe I find becomes fair game and this DEFINITELY falls within the meaning of “fair”. It is bookmarked, pinned and shared! Will I make them? You betcha!

Amber D May 14, 2012 at 9:59 am

Hey Gaby…love your blog! I made these yesterday and the cookie layer was way over cooked, tasted burnt. Any suggestions? The brownie was fudgy as it should be- not overcooked.

Gaby May 14, 2012 at 4:13 pm

hmmmmm did you use a glass pan? that might have been it if you did!

Luke May 16, 2012 at 7:36 am

Loved these and so did everyone at work. Though next time I’ll halve the salt in both the dough and brownie mixture.

Pru @ Perfecting Pru May 17, 2012 at 4:03 pm

Oh Gaby! These were so good. I followed your recipe closely and they were the best cookie/brownie/thing I have ever tried. I loved them, my family and friends loved them too. Only problem – I keep being asked to make more! ;-)

Gaby May 17, 2012 at 5:27 pm
