The Love Story of Oreo and Truffle Brownie

I feel like this is the set of a romantic comedy except it features food. The truffle browning is sitting at the park reading a book, when suddenly the Oreo’s dog runs off its leash. The Oreo trips and looks up while saying “wait come back boy”. The Oreo gets up, and proceed’s to run after the dog. When the Oreo finally arrives it sees the dog being pet and pampered by the chocolate truffle.

Cue the romantic lovey dovey music while the Oreo and truffle give each other love struck eyes. The two begin dating almost immediately. They fall madly in love and are married shortly there after. A year passes and they have their first baby am Oreo Truffle Browning which is the most beautiful dessert you have ever seen. Yeah, this recipe is like that. Now enough with the short stories and onto the recipe.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa
  • 1⅓ cups flour
  • ½ tsp. salt
Oreo Truffle Layer
  • 1 pkg. Double Stuffed Oreos
  • 6-8 oz. cream cheese, softened, add more as needed
Chocolate layer
  • 1½ cups milk chocolate chips
  • ½ cup semi-sweet milk chocolate chips
  • 1 Tablespoon shortening

Directions 

  1. Cream butter and sugar together. Add eggs and blend well. Add vanilla, salt, cocoa and flour. Don’t overbeat. Pour into a greased 9X13 pan. Bake at 350 F for 20-25 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
  2. While brownies are cooling, make Oreo truffle layer. Crush Oreos finely in a food processor or by putting them in a ziplock bag and smashing them until finely ground with a rolling pin. When Oreos are finely crushed, using hands (or a spoon, I just think hands are faster), mash softened cream cheese and crushed Oreos until well combined. Start with 4 oz and keep adding until desired consistency is reached. When Brownies have cooled completely, place layer of Oreo truffle on top.
Chocolate Layer
  1. Combine chocolate chips and shortening together in a medium microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring in between each increment until melted and smooth.

  2. Evenly spread over the top of Oreo Truffle layer.

  3. Let set up in fridge before cutting into.
