The image shows two square layered bars stacked on top of each other set against a white marbled texture. Each bar has three distinct layers: the bottom layer is a dark, dense crust with a slightly crumbly texture; the middle layer is creamy and white with chunks of dark cookie pieces embedded throughout; the top layer is a light golden brown with a soft crumbly surface and some mini dark cookies pressed into it. The bars appear moist but firm, with a rich contrast between the dark and light layers. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter
  • 2 cups White Chocolate Chips
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 15 Oreos, crushed
  • 5 Oreos, additional crushed for topping

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8″x8″ baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the unsalted butter and white chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth.
  3. Step 3: Whisk in the egg, sweetened condensed milk, and salt until the mixture is well combined.
  4. Step 4: Gradually add the all-purpose flour, folding gently with a spatula until just mixed. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Step 5: Stir in the crushed Oreos until evenly distributed throughout the batter. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly.
  6. Step 6: Sprinkle the remaining crushed Oreos on top of the batter for extra crunch and flavor.
  7. Step 7: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  8. Step 8: Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 1 hour before cutting into squares to ensure they set properly.

Tips & Variations

  • For a vegan version, replace the egg with a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water, set for 5 minutes).
  • Substitute milk chocolate chips for white chocolate chips if you prefer a richer flavor.
  • Use gluten-free flour in place of all-purpose flour to make the brownies gluten-free.
  • For extra texture, fold in chopped nuts such as pecans or walnuts.

Storage

Store these brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to 1 week. For longer storage, freeze the brownies wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and foil for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving. Reheat briefly in the microwave for a warm, gooey treat.

FAQs

Can I use a different size baking pan?

An 8″x8″ pan is recommended for the best thickness and baking time. Using a larger pan will result in thinner brownies and a shorter baking time, so adjust accordingly.

Why do the brownies need to cool for an hour before cutting?

Allowing the brownies to cool completely gives them time to set, which helps prevent them from falling apart when sliced and ensures clean, neat squares.
