Brookies Recipe With Oreos and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
Brookies are a delightful combination of brownies and cookies, creating the ultimate treat for those who love both desserts. This recipe takes brookies to a whole new level by adding a mix of Oreo cookies and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. The result is a rich and chocolatey part-brownie, part-cookie that is simply irresistible.
To make these brookies, you can use prepared cookie dough and boxed brownie mix for convenience. However, using high-quality ingredients will enhance the flavor of your brookies. Choose fresh butter, high-quality chocolate or cocoa powder, and pure vanilla extract to achieve the best results.
Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F and lightly greasing a cupcake pan. Divide the cookie dough into 12 balls and place one ball in each cupcake well. Flatten the dough slightly to create a base for your brookie. Add Oreo cookies to half of the wells and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups to the other half for added variety.
Mix up the brownie batter according to package instructions using eggs, oil, and water. Fill each cupcake well with enough brownie batter to fill 90% full. Bake for 22 minutes or until the top of the brownies are no longer wet.
These brookies are incredibly easy to make but deliver maximum indulgence. Enjoy them with a glass of milk for the perfect dessert experience!
What You’ll Need to Make Brookies
To make Brookies, you will need the following ingredients: 16 oz of chocolate chip cookie dough (we recommend Pillsbury Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough), 18 oz of brownie mix (we recommend Ghirardelli Double Chocolate Brownie mix), Oreo cookies, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. You can also use your favorite homemade chocolate chip cookie recipe if preferred.
To assemble the Brookies, you will need a cupcake pan that has been lightly greased. Divide the cookie dough into 12 balls and place one ball in each cupcake well, pressing it down to flatten. Add the peanut butter cups to half of the wells and the Oreo cookies to the other half.
Prepare the brownie batter according to the package instructions, using eggs, oil, and water. Fill each cupcake well with enough brownie batter to fill it 90% full.
Bake the Brookies in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F for approximately 22 minutes, or until the top of the brownies are no longer wet.
You can customize your Brookies by using all Oreos or all Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups instead of a combination. If desired, you can also omit these additions entirely to reduce calorie intake.
Overall, this recipe is simple and requires minimal ingredients and preparation time. The result is a delicious combination of rich chocolatey brownie and chewy cookie in one delightful treat.
How to Make Brookies
To make these delicious brookies, start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F and lightly greasing a cupcake pan. Divide the chocolate chip cookie dough into 12 balls and place one ball in each cupcake well. Flatten the dough slightly.
Next, add a peanut butter cup to half of the wells and an Oreo cookie to the other half. You can also choose to use all Oreos or all Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups if you prefer.
In a separate bowl, prepare the brownie batter according to the package instructions using eggs, oil, and water. Fill each cupcake well with enough brownie batter to fill it about 90% full.
Bake the brookies in the preheated oven for approximately 22 minutes, or until the top of the brownies are no longer wet. Once they are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before enjoying.
Pro Tips for Making Brookies
1. Use quality ingredients: As with any baked good, using high-quality ingredients will yield the best results. Choose fresh butter, high-quality chocolate or cocoa powder, and pure vanilla extract to enhance the flavor of your brookies.
2. Pre-make the batters: Prepare the brownie and cookie batters separately before combining them. This will help you achieve the distinct textures of each dessert in a single treat.
3. Layer or swirl the batters: For a visually appealing brookie, you can either layer the batters or swirl them together. To create a layered brookie, spread the brownie batter in the pan first, then drop spoonfuls of cookie dough on top. For a swirled brookie, drop spoonfuls of both batters into the pan and gently swirl them together with a knife or skewer.
4. Chill the cookie dough: If you find that the cookie dough is too soft or difficult to handle, refrigerate it for about 30 minutes before assembling the brookies. This will make the dough easier to work with and help it maintain its shape during baking.
5. Don’t overmix the batters: Overmixing the batters can result in a tough or dense texture. Mix each batter just until the ingredients are combined, being careful not to overwork the dough.
6. Monitor the baking time: Keep an eye on the brookies as they bake since cooking time can vary depending on thickness and pan type used. Start checking for doneness a few minutes before suggested baking time is up.
