In a microwave-safe mixing bowl, add butter, sugar, cocoa powder and heat in microwave at 30 second increments (mixing between each round) until the butter has fully melted and you have a smooth mixture. Add eggs, vanilla extract and mix again until smooth. Add flour, chocolate chips and mix until just combined. Don't over-mix! Some of the chocolate chips might melt, depending on how warm your mixture is. Don't worry about that.
Pour batter in a square pan (Dimensions: 8x8) lined with aluminum foil and greased with oil or just use parchment paper. Spread batter evenly with a spatula.
Add chopped Oreos on top and pat them down tightly with a rubber spatula.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 30-35 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out with a few sticky crumbs. If there are no sticky crumbs, you have over-baked the brownies.
Allow the brownies to fully cool to room temperature before cutting slices. Enjoy.
- Replace semisweet chocolate chips with other flavors such as white, milk, dark, butterscotch e.t.c.
- You must use unsalted butter.
- I don't add any salt in this recipe but you can add ¼ teaspoon sea salt if you like.
- Don't over-bake brownies because that would make them dry and crumbly.
- Instead of the classic Oreo cookies, try other seasonal flavors.
- Don't replace granulated sugar with brown sugar because that results in a more chewy brownie.
- Read additional tips and variations above.
- Leftovers can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
