Ingredients
For the Cookies:
- ½ cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup crushed Oreos (about 8 cookies)
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preparation Tips
• Use melted butter: It creates the fudgy texture you love in brownies.
• Chill the dough: Refrigerating for 30 minutes ensures the cookies hold their shape while baking.
• Don’t over-crush the Oreos: Leave some larger pieces for added texture.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prep the Oven and Pan
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
Step 2: Make the Dough
In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt, and stir until just combined. Fold in the crushed Oreos and chocolate chips.
Step 3: Shape the Cookies
Scoop the dough into 1 ½-tablespoon-sized balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
Step 4: Bake the Cookies
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make-Ahead & Storage
The cookie dough can be prepared up to 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator. Baked cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze dough balls and bake directly from frozen, adding 1-2 extra minutes to the baking time.
Serving Suggestions
Pair these cookies with a glass of cold milk or crumble them over vanilla ice cream for a decadent dessert. They’re also perfect for holiday cookie platters, bake sales, or late-night treats.

These Oreo Brownie Cookies are the ultimate mashup of two beloved desserts, delivering a rich and fudgy chocolate experience with the crunch of Oreos.
