I have a new love: SLUTTY BROWNIES


Ingredients

         For the Brownie layer:
         10 tbsp unsalted butter
         1 1/4 cups white sugar
         3/4 cup cocoa powder
         1/2 tsp salt
         2 tsp vanilla extract (Thank you Tanuvee!)
         2 large eggs
         1/2 cup AP flour (AP flour? Advanced placement flour?          High          schoolers confused)
        
         For the Oreo layer:
         1 package of Oreo (regular stuffed or double stuffed) - it's even better if you use the chocolate ones
        
         For the Cookie Dough layer:
         1/2 cup unsalted butter (at room temp)
         1/4 cup brown sugar
         3/4 cup white sugar (LOL nope, we used all the sugar in both          kitchens for the brownie layer: moar brown sugar!!!)
         1 egg
         1 1/4 tsp vanilla extract                 
         1 1/4 cups AP flour (???)
         1/2 tsp salt
         1/2 tsp baking soda
         1/2 tsp baking powder
         (Note: in India, these are the same thing. Weird :P)
         1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (or you can substitute a          mashed-up bar of chocolate. Dairy milk crunchie works nicely)
        
Instructions
For the Brownie layer:
In a medium saucepan (microwave), melt the butter over medium high heat. Add the sugar and cocoa powder once the butter is melted. Whisk to combine and remove from heat. Add the salt, vanilla and eggs and continuously whisk until the eggs are combined. Add the flour and continue to mix. Set batter aside.

For the Cookie Dough layer:

Cream together the butter and sugars in a mixer (aka with your fork/hands). Add the eggs and vanilla, making sure to scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl. Add the flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder and mix on low until everything is incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips. Set dough aside.

Assembly:

Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
Line the bottom of a 9x9 baking pan with tin foil and then spray the tin foil with a layer of baking spray. (or you can just lavishly butter Ms Maya’s pan)
Layer the cookie dough on the bottom of a 9x9 baking pan, pressing down to form the bottom of the slutty brownies.
Layer as many oreos that will fit on top of the cookie dough. No need to overlap. One single layer will do. (To fill in the gaps, crumble up oreos and out the crumbs in between_
Pour the brownie batter on top of the oreo layer and make sure it's evenly layers on top.
Bake for 30-35 minutes. Test with a knife to see if the center is done. If the knife comes out clean, let the brownies rest before serving. If the knife comes out with batter still on it, allow the brownies to bake about 5 minutes more.

Serve with ice cream :) (Serve quietly, else the whole dorm will want some! Oh no, here they come…)

Enjoy, my lovelies!
