Best Even Sluttier Slutty Brownies Recipes

SLUTTY BROWNIES RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Line a 9x9-inch (or 8x8-inch) baking pan with tin foil, leaving enough overhang on the sides for lifting the brownies out after baking.
• To make the cookie dough: In a medium bowl sift together flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• In a mixer bowl fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Beat in egg and vanilla. Add flour mixture and mix just until combined. Do not overmix. Fold in chocolate chips.
• Layer the cookie dough on the bottom of prepared pan, pressing down to form an even layer. Bake for 8 minutes until just beginning to set. Allow to cool slightly on a wire rack. Meanwhile, prepare the brownie batter.
• To make the brownies: In a large heatproof bowl, place chocolate and butter. Heat in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between each interval, until melted (or set it over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring occasionally). Add cocoa powder and sugar and whisk until combined. Stir in eggs. Add flour and salt and fold, using a rubber spatula, just until combined. Set aside.
• Layer Oreos on top of the cookie dough in one layer. No need to overlap, it's ok if there are gaps.
• Pour brownie batter slowly over the Oreos and smooth the top. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies come out with moist crumbs, 20-25 minutes. Let brownies cool completely on a wire rack, then refrigerate until set for easy cutting, at least 4 hours. Lift brownies out of the pan using tin foil and cut with a sharp knife into 16 squares. Store brownies at room temperature or in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

EVEN SLUTTIER SLUTTY BROWNIES

Steps:

• Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees.
• Line the bottom of an 8x8 baking pan (or use a 9x13 pan if gooey centers bother you) with tin foil and then spray the foil liberally with baking spray.
• Make the brownie layer per box instructions (without baking) OR: In a medium sauce pan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Once melted, add the sugar and cocoa powder. Stir to combine and remove from the heat. Add the salt, vanilla and eggs to the batter and then whisk until combined. In a separate bowl, sift the flour and then slowly incorporate the flour into the batter until it's all mixed. Set the batter aside.
• If making your own cookie dough: In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars with a hand mixer. Add the eggs one at a time and then the vanilla, scraping down the sides of the mixing bowl as you go. Add the flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder and mix on low until incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips and then set aside.
• Assemble!
• Start by gently pressing the cookie dough into the bottom of the pan, making sure to create an even layer. (I found it helpful to use the back of a 1-cup measure cup.).
• Then add a layer of Oreos on top of the cookie dough. Nudge them as close together as possible without overlapping.
• Get ready for the gluttony: Remove the lid on the caramel sauce/dulce de leche and microwave for 35 seconds (until it becomes slightly warm and spreadable). Use a spoon to drizzle the caramel over the Oreos.
• Lastly: Pour the brownie batter on top of the caramel-Oreo layer. Use a spatula to make sure it's even.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes. Test with a knife to see if the center is done. It's OK if the knife has some brownie on it. It's easy to over-bake the cookie layer if left in the oven too long.
• Once out of the oven, heat up the caramel again as in step 8. With a spoon, lightly drizzle the caramel over the brownies. Sprinkle with the salt.
• *Note: Although you can scarf these right away (they'll be crumbly but delicious and gooey!), they actually get better with age. Let them rest for several hours for easier handling and serving.
• *Note: Prep time is reduced if using boxed/ready-made mixes.
