Slutty Brownies



Slutty brownies are what you make when you need three chocolatey desserts in one- chocolate chip cookies, brownies, and America’s favorite cream-centered cookie, the glorious Oreo. I use double stuffed in my bars because the cream center is the best part. The Oreo cookie softens sandwiched in the middle of two ooey-gooey layers and the creme center kindly melts. Jessica Simpson explained where the name came from on Leno: They are slutty because a lot of things go in to them. (Cymbal crash!)

A lot of the recipes I saw out there in the internet world called for using a box mix for each bar layer. Not for me! Instead, I use a super fudge brownie recipe I love and my classic blondie recipe. It’s only slightly more work and so much more flavor. And more reason to brag about your baking prowess when you bring these out to share. If you have any left to share.

If you really and truly want to make these slutty brownies even more sinful, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream (and hot fudge, and whipped cream- I mean, in for a penny, in for a pound). Enjoy!



Ingredients:
Brownies:
12 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs and 1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup sour cream
1 cup flour
3/4 cup white chocolate chips

Oreos
1 package double stuffed Oreos

Cookie Dough Layer
1/2 cup softened butter
1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 1/4 cup flour
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract


Method: 

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom and sides of a 9 by 9 inch square pan and spray the tinfoil with Baker’s Joy. Set aside.

Brownies:
In a small bowl, add the butter and chocolate. Microwave in short bursts of 20 seconds until the butter and chocolate is melted.

Meanwhile, combine the sugars, cocoa powder, salt, eggs and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Pour in the melted butter and chocolate and mix until fully combine. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Fold in the white chocolate chips. Spread this mixture into you pan with a spatula.

Cookie dough:
Cream together the butter and sugars with a hand held electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat well. Add the flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder and mix until incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Assembly:
Press the cookie dough into the bottom on the pan, making an even layer.

Place as many oreos on top that will fit in a single layer. Feel free to cut the oreos in half to make them fit.


Spread the brownie batter over with a spatula. Bake in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes until the center is set. Allow the brownies to cool completely before removing from the pan and slicing. Then serve up and enjoy!

Samosas with Yogurt Sauce

I love exploring many kinds of cuisine in my kitchen because I can control the spice level, and in the case of this recipe, the use of cilantro. Cilantro lovers out there- sub it info the parsley here. I have the gene that makes cilantro taste like soap, which limits my ability to enjoy some dishes in restaurants, but is easily rectified in my own kitchen. I hope you enjoy!

Leftover Cranberry Sauce Cookies

Like many of you, I made an entire Thanksgiving Day feast for only my husband and I. As such, I have an inordinate amount of leftovers. Expect my blog to largely star ways to dress up leftovers, because I have freezer meals of Thanksgiving day to last a lifetime. In this recipe, I was looking for a way to use up cranberry sauce and leftover walnuts from my apple crisp. Cranberry sauce drop cookies seemed the perfect thing to make; enjoy it with a cup of hot cocoa. I plan on gifting some to my parents; a way to break bread near the holiday without breaking protocols. Enjoy!  Ingredients: 3 3/4 cup all purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg 2 sticks of butter, softened 1 1/2 cups sugar 3 eggs 1 cup cranberry sauce 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/2 cup chopped nuts Method: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Set aside a rimmed baking tray. Whisk together all of the dry ingredients in a medium bowl; set aside. With ...

Peek-a-boo Squares

My grandma, Mimi, taught me this recipe. I used to make this with her and my mother as a child. It is my very favorite dessert. It is incredibly easy to make, and even easier to eat. My favorite part of making this as a child was dusting every bar generously with snowy white powdered sugar.  My favorite version of this dessert uses canned blueberry pie filling; I vastly prefer Libby brand over the store brand. You can make blueberry pie filling from scratch with sugar, cornstarch, bleberries, etc. but using the canned stuff is easy in a pinch and is much for nostalgic for me. Plus, I don’t notice a vast improvement over my homemade blueberry pie filling and the Libby brand; it just takes me longer to put this dessert together.  I have been known to whip up a pan of these Friday night and have them disappear by Saturday afternoon. Be warned, these things are addictive! Ingredients: 3 cups of all-purpose flour 2 cups of granulated sugar 4 eggs 2 ...
