Everyone can make brownies. It doesn’t matter if you’re an expert baker or if you’re on a budget, you can find a brownie recipe that works for you. (Or buy a box mix for cheap if you aren’t feeling making it from scratch, but that’s not what this post is about.) Brownies unite us! What, too dramatic?
I’m partial to my Fudgy Brownies that I’ve been making for years. They are quick and easy to whip up. If you’re a beginner baker then it is a great recipe for you. Plus, there’s a reason why I’ve made them a trillion times and I continue to make them. They always come out so darn delicious!
Now if you’re looking for a basic brownie recipe, you can simply stop here and head over to that post and make them. No one will fault you. 😉 You are still baking a winning recipe. If you want to get crazy, then stick with me.
Add some Oreo cookies to this chocolate party! Yes, this is me going “crazy.” Sorry, if you were expecting more. Who can refuse an Oreo or a brownie, let alone both combined together?
When I say that these brownies are “fudgy” I do not mean that they are “fudge.” That’s a different recipe and frankly something more like what my husband would make. These are super duper moist and chewy, not cakey. I’ll let the photos explain what I’m talking about here because words aren’t going to get it across quite right. If you like what you see then it doesn’t matter what I call them.
I had fun with these Halloween Oreos. They taste the same as the regular Oreos, but the cream is colored orange and they have a bunch of fun pictures on them. Of course you could make these brownies 365 days a year and substitute with another Oreo variety. Even the flavored ones if you want to be brave.
You get a little crunch of cookie in every bite. Can you see the dark chocolate Oreo cookie bits? Yum. Some of the Oreo cream will melt into the brownie while it bakes so you never know how much “orange” you will get in your piece until you dive in! How fun is that?!
So who’s up for some brownies?

Here are some other bangin’ brownie recipes.
Flourless Chocolate And Peanut Butter Fudgy Brownies
Fudgy brownies are the best, but these look like an epic version of them. I want to eat them through the screen!
Haha…sounds dangerous. 😉 But they are seriously epic. 🙂
Oreo and brownie in the same recipe. Yum!
Oh yeah!
Yum! They are nut free for our nut free house too! I somehow missed the original brownie recipe thanks for that! It’s almost impossible to get safe boxed brownies. I have no idea why I never thought of baking them. Oreos are my kids favorite, so I’ll have to try these for sure! Silly question.. regular Oreos or the double stuffed ones. In the picture they look double stuffed. I’m sure the cream amount differences could mess up the recipe.
Not a silly question and I’m glad that you asked. The Halloween Oreos are regular stuffed. I have not tried using double stuffed Oreos in this recipe so I don’t know how the brownies would come out. It is possible that the double stuffed ones could change the texture of the brownie and you might need to alter the baking time (although I’m sure it would still taste great if you felt like experimenting).
I’m glad you found a nut free recipe for your house and I think your kids will love these. 🙂
Wauw, these sure look fudge! Yum. And what a great twist on brownies – perfect for Halloween 🙂
Super fun and festive. 🙂 Have a lovely weekend Josefine!
I’m totally cray over brownies, but you know what the sad part is? I’ve NEVER had an oreo brownie in my life. Yep, that is SO changing here soon. Can’t wait to try these, Tina! They look ULTRA fudgy and fudgy brownies = my life. 😀
You will wonder how you ever did without. 😉 Have a lovely weekend Sarah!
We’re on the same wavelength with the Oreos today! Love these brownies!
Wahoo! That’s awesome.
Oreos in brownies!! That would solve the dilemma for the chocolate lovers in my family without them feeling guilty as to what to choose. Now they can have both in one dessert and not feel like they over indulged. Thanks Tina!
You got it!! 🙂
My kitchen is full of my parent’s dinner guests…… but all I want to do is make these brownies ASAP!!! I guess drooling over them here will have to do for now!
Lol…need a napkin? 😉
Fudgy brownies are the best but to combine that with a little bite of crispy cookies in each bite is so delicious. Perfect for school Halloween treats!
I used to love it when my mom would surprise me with a baked goodie in my lunch bag. 🙂
Holy YUM! I want them in my belly noooooow! 🙂 So delicious. What a wicked twist on the brownie. Sooooooooo good! Hope you have a wonderful weekend my friend.
I’m definitely diggin’ 2 of my favorite desserts together. 🙂
As if brownies couldn’t get better…festive brownies with Oreos?! Perfect! I love this twist on them, Tina!
I totally agree!
Love fun versions of brownies! My favorite is Peanut Butter Oreo Brownies!
I must disagree with you on the fact that Halloween Oreos taste the same as regular Oreos! You may think I’m crazy but something about the Halloween Oreos taste better!
I’ve never tried the peanut butter Oreos, but now I’ll have to!
Oh my goodness, brownies and Oreos, am I in heaven already?!
Lovely pictures, just wish I could grab a square of these fudgy, good looking brownies!
Thank you so much! I wish I had a square leftover to send you. 😉
What fun brownies! I love that you used the Halloween Oreos – it makes them so season appropriate, and I love the color! Looks great!
Thanks Kristi. 🙂
OH my yum! Those brownies have the perfect crinkly top and look so fudgey!!! Pinned!
Indeed! Thanks for pinning. 🙂
I am always up for brownies! And these look divine–perfectly chewy, which is my favorite kind of brownie. Aaaand the Oreos in them? Yep, I know what I’m making today! 🙂 Pinned too!
Wahoo! Thank you for pinning. 🙂
Oh my gosh, I absolutely love these, Tina! I love those pops of orange!
Thanks!
hey Tina,
I’ve been using this recipe since 2016 and I never use another one as these brownies are nice and chewy. I wanted 2 ask do you use an electric whisk or just mix/whisk everything by hand? when you are placing your batter into the tray is ure batter quite stiff or is it wet. mines quite stiff so hard to move around and I was jist wondering if that’s because I dont use an electric whisk. thank you for the amazing recipe
I use an electric hand mixer, but you can definitely mix by hand instead. The brownie batter is thick so I do use a spatula to evenly distribute the batter in the tray. I am so glad that you love this recipe. It’s a family favorite that I’ve been making for so many years. 🙂
thank you! so I use the same recipe minus oreos. I places broken pieces of lotus biscoff cookies on the bottom followed by the brownie mix and topped with melted biscoff spread then bake. it’s become every1s new fav. Trying to add to my collection do you think if used the same recipe of yours bt replaced the choc chips with chopped chunks of Terry’s choc orange , would that work? or would the high sugar content mess with the recipe ?
I have never had Terry’s choc orange but it sounds like it is worth trying. I love how you used biscoff cookies… brilliant!
