Servings 8
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter (2 Sticks)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chunks
- 2 cups chopped Oreos
- 3 large eggs
- 1 Tbsp instant espresso powder
- 1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract
- ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
- 1½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Line a 13x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper and extend it past the edges, on at least two sides. Grease paper with butter.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Set a heatproof, medium-sized bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Heat butter, and chocolate chunks until melted and smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, espresso powder, vanilla and sugar. Stir the egg mixture into the slightly cooled chocolate mixture. Cool to room temperature.
- Add flour mixture to the batter. Stir most of the broken Oreos into the chocolate mixture (save a few for sprinkling on top). Then pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a rubber spatula. Sprinkle reserved Oreo pieces on top.
- Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean with a few crumbs attached. Do not over bake as you want them to be fudgy! Let cool completely, then cover and chill for several hours. Chilling the brownies makes them easier to cut. Invert the chilled brownie pan onto a cutting board, peel off the parchment paper and cut into squares.
