Triple Threat Brownies (Or should I say Triple Treat?)


     Disclaimer: These brownies are only sort of homemade. They're homemade in the sense that you make them at home. But they are very easy. You can put them together very quickly. And they are very good. Here's what you'll need:


     Double Stuff Oreos, brownie mix, and refrigerated cookie dough. Yep, that's it. Three things. (If you don't count the extra ingredients that go in the brownie mix, anyway.)

     Here's what you do. First, line a 9x9 baking pan with parchment paper or nonstick foil. Press that refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough evenly over the bottom of the pan. Cover the dough with a layer of Oreos. Mix your brownies according to the directions on the box and pour the batter right over the top of the Oreos. That's it. Bake it at 350 degrees for about 40-45 minutes, or until the brownie layer is done. Cool completely in the pan, then slice and swoon.

     Since I'm trying to practice moderation in all things sweet, I cut them into small bars. But if you want something a little more festive, you could cut them big enough to hold a scoop of vanilla ice cream with some fudge sauce poured over the top. Visit Kevin and Amanda for their wonderfully decadent "even more homemade" version of these. Just be prepared to drool!

  4. Triple this...triple that...as long as there's chocolate...the only threat is me not living closer to have a bite. LOL

    This goodie is certainly a keeper and one I'll have to try some day...especially when in need of some baking shortcuts ;o)

    Ciao for now and flavourful wishes,
    Claudia

  7. I love recipes like this. Simple and scrumpdilyicious!!! These look incredible. I wonder how they'd taste if you drizzled caramel over the Oreos before covering with the brownies.

  9. Wow...and wow! Betty this is truly a triple treat. What an incredible and scrumptious combination:DDD
    I love to combine mixes with other ingredients.
    I used to have a book called Cake Doctor, which I gave it away as a "giveaway" last year, and that book had all kinds of creations out of mixes...but I don't recall seeing this recipe!

  27. Hi Betty, I just had to get back to you about your brownie recipe. So, I made the brownies for the tailgate, everybody went crazy over them, shared your link with the recipe by email, Facebook and twitter. After the tailgate I shared the rest of the brownies with my son who works for the 49ers and he shared them in the press box where they all went crazy over them, taking pictures and tweeting about how good they are. Next home game I'm making and sharing an entire pan with the press box per my son's request, just thought I would share this with you;-)
