Rich and fudgy Oreo brownies are decadent bars with a layer of Oreo cookies! They are easy to make and a crowd favorite.
My family loves Oreo desserts! Other favorites include Oreo balls, chocolate lasagna and mini cookies and cream cheesecake bites.

Fudgy Oreo Brownies
If you know me, you know I love to doctor up a box of brownie mix and make fun brownie variations or even brownie mix cookies. This Oreo brownie version is a favorite, as well as chocolate mint brownies, peanut butter brownies and cheesecake brownies.
These delicious Oreo brownies are so good and since they use a box mix like my chocolate fudge caramel brownies, they are so EASY to make. These brownies with Oreos are rich and chewy with a moist crumbs! Any dessert with chocolate and Oreos is a winner in my book.
Recipe Ingredients
For this Oreo brownie recipe, I used Ghiradelli brownie mix – my absolute favorite! I went big time with DOUBLE chocolate! Mmm…so good! You could of course use your favorite homemade brownies, too. Easy and delicious!

- Brownie mix: This recipe calls for 2 boxes of your favorite mix, as well as the ingredients needed to make the brownies (typically vegetable or canola oil and large eggs).
- Oreos: The star of the show. The cookies give the brownies an added bit of chocolate and creamy goodness.
Variations
- Mix in 1/2 cup chocolate chips to batter if not already included in brownie mix.
- Add white chocolate chips, mint chocolate chips, toffee chips or peanut butter chips to the brownies with Oreos recipe.
- Pick a fun brownie mix, like milk chocolate or dark chocolate.
- Sprinkle a little salt on top to enhance the chocolate flavor.
- Mix up the type of Oreo cookies you use. I love the mint version in these Oreo brownies.
How to Make Oreo Brownies
This is about as easy at it gets, folks. Simply stir, bake, and sit back and enjoy a chocolate lover’s dream dessert.
- Preheat oven. Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with foil and spray with nonstick spray.
- Mix together batter. In a large bowl, make brownies according to package directions.
- Assemble brownies. Pour half of the batter into the baking dish. Line Oreo’s on top of the brownie batter. Then evenly pour remaining batter on top.
- Bake. Bake Oreo brownies for 35 to 45 minutes, or until tooth pick comes out clean. Let cool, then enjoy with a large glass of cold milk! ;)
Baking Tips
- Line your baking dish with foil or parchment paper for easy clean up and removal.
- Feel free to use a homemade brownie recipe if preferred.
- Use a plastic knife to easily cut the Oreo brownies once cooled.
- For even more chocolate flavor, try adding a layer of chocolate ganache on top (similar to my peanut butter brownies).

I made these last night & took them to work today. EVERYBODY raved about them. These are going to be my new signature brownies – lol!

The whole pan was empty by 1 p.m.
Recipe FAQs
The fudgier the brownie, the more fat to flour ratio it will have. Meanwhile, cakey brownies will use more flour than fat. For instance, adding an extra egg can make brownies fudgier but adding too many will lead to a rubbery texture.
Absolutely! Simply use 1 box brownie mix and half box Oreo’s and make in a small 8×8-inch baking dish.
Storing
The Oreo brownies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature up to 5 days.

How many brownies does this make?
Hi Macy! It really depends on what size you cut them. :)
These are yummy. But being the peanut butter chocolate fan that I am, I would drizzle peanut butter over the top next time. :)
I made these as a treat for one o f my staff writers who has been doing really well. She loves oreos so this was perfect for her! She fell in love!! Thank you for the idea!
YUMMY! Next time I am going to rub a dab of peanut butter on top of the oreos before topping with more brownies!
Quick Question – the 2 Ghirardelli boxes shown are for 8×8 pans. I tend to use mixes for 13×9 pans. Would I still make two boxes or would 1 13×9 mix work?
Thanks.
One would work! :)
I don’t make mine like that, I use a brownie pan by Pampered Chef. You dip the Oreo in the mix, then put into the brownie mold. Much easier that way and everyone loves mine.
Great idea!
I made these and they were in the oven for longer but very delicious!
I just made these for my boyfriend for valentines day!!!! Thanks so much for the super easy recipe!!!
Does the oreo get softer when brownies are done? (or does cookie stay hard?)I want to make these for a first grade class party. Silly question
Hi Cherie! Yes, the oreos get softer when the brownies are done! :)
These are in the oven now! I played with flavors and made mocha brownies with mint oreos! Im making then fo a going away party. Hope they are a hit!
Sounds delicious! Hope they turned out well!! :)
When making for a large group you can use cupcake baking cups . It is a little more work but the ease at the event is worth it. Just put about a tablespoon of batter in the cup, drop an Oreo in, cover with a tablespoon of batter and bake according to cupcake directions on box.
What a great idea Joanne! Thanks for sharing! :)
Just made these for a picnic with my girlfriend tomorrow and as of now they taste great. Oreos are her favorite. Hope she likes them!
Hope she enjoyed these Robert! They are one of my son’s favorites! :)
She did! It went really well! This is a great recipe that I’ll have to keep in mind for later!
I am super excited about making these brownies! One question- are the brownie mixes 8×8 or 9×13?
They are 9×13! Hope you enjoy these! :)
They were AMAZING!!! My roommate fell in love with them INSTANTLY!!
I’m glad you and your roommate loved them!! Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment Burg! :)
What does the foil do in the pan? And how would you cut it if there is foil?
It makes it so the brownies don’t stick to the pan and makes for easy clean up! I usually just remove the foil and brownies from the pan and then cut. You can definitely use non-stick spray as well! :)
These brownies are really delicious! It will give quite the Sugar rush :)
They are very yummy and oh so easy to make! :)
Yummy. I make something similar but I crush up the Oreos and have a bottom layer of chocolate chip cookie dough!
Sounds delicious! :)
Mmmmm….. those look DELISH!!!!!
They are so delicious! I hope you get the chance to make them! :)
