COOKIES AND CREAM BROOKIE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9x13-inch (22x33 cm) pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• To make the brownie portion, place the semisweet chocolate chips and butter in a large, microwave-safe bowl. Place in the microwave and heat on high power in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
• Whisk in the granulated sugar until smooth.
• Add the eggs, vanilla, salt, and cocoa powder, and whisk until well mixed.
• Add the flour and, using a spatula, stir carefully until incorporated, but not overmixed.
• Fold in the chopped Oreos. Set aside.
• To make the cookie portion, cream together the butter, cream cheese, and granulated and brown sugars in the bowl of a stand mixer, or in a large bowl using a hand mixer, until smooth and fluffy.
• Mix in the egg and vanilla.
• Sift the flour, baking soda, and salt together into a medium bowl. Then mix in with the wet ingredients until well combined.
• Gently fold in the cookies and cream bars and Oreos. Set aside.
• To assemble the brookie, spread the brownie batter in the prepared pan.
• Use your hands to evenly drop flattened portions of cookie dough over the top of the brownie mixture in the pan, covering it completely. Note: the cookie dough is not going to easily spread, so just drop in flattened portions; it will bake together.
• Bake for 40-50 minutes until the top is dark golden brown and a toothpick inserted all the way into the brownie layer comes out clean.
• Let cool for 1-2 hours and then cut into 24 squares.
• Enjoy!
