🍽️ How to Make Oreo Layered Halloween Brownies
1️⃣ Preheat & Prep
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal.
2️⃣ Make the Brownie Batter
In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and glossy.
Add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
Sift in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Fold gently until just combined — do not overmix.
3️⃣ Layer the Oreos
Spread half of the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan.
Arrange Oreo cookies in a single layer over the batter, pressing them in slightly.
Pour the remaining brownie batter on top and gently spread to cover the Oreos completely.
4️⃣ Bake to Fudgy Perfection
Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Cool completely in the pan before slicing — this helps the layers set cleanly.
