Tips for the Best Oreo Brownies Recipe
- Mix the brownie batter until smooth, but don't overmix it. Overmixing makes tough brownies.
- Press your Oreos down gently when placing them on the batter to ensure you have enough room for the rest of the batter.
- Let your brownies cool completely before slicing, so they hold their shape when cut.
FAQ
Fudgy brownies have more fat than cakey brownies. Ingredients like extra butter, chocolate, oil or eggs can help make fudgier brownies.
A slice of white bread is key to keeping brownies moist. Place a single slice of white bread into your storage container. The moisture from the bread will keep the brownies moist.
One of the most common reasons that brownies come out dry or cakey is using too much flour. When measuring flour, loosely spoon it into your measuring cup and level it off with a knife. This prevents packing.
