THE BEST COOKIES AND CREAM BROWNIES
There were 2 things that were necessary to ME as I worked on this instruction. First, the brownie on rock bottom required to be thick, chewy and fudgy to the grievous bodily harm. Second, I wished a topping that wasn’t easy a icing filled with Oreos. That simply didn’t want enough. and that i wished to be able to stack the brownies during a instrumentation while not the icing obtaining everywhere the bottoms. Is that weird?

These brownies conjointly use each chocolate and melted chocolate. i really like employing a little of each to induce each the sturdy chocolate flavor that the powder offers whereas conjointly obtaining a bit additional fudgyness from the melted chocolate. I went with Hershey’s Special Dark Cocoa in these brownies to undertake and mirror the dark color of Oreos, however you'll conjointly use regular sugarless cocoa.
