Ok, no judging. When I can take a shortcut, I do. I've never made brownies homemade. I guess I just liked the box mix so much that I never thought to make them from scratch. Maybe I will someday, but not today. Here's a really easy twist on a box mix of brownies.
Oreo Brownies
Ingredients:
Your favorite box of brownie mix (I use the one with the triple chunks of chocolate... mmmmm chocolate)
However much oil, water, and eggs your mix calls for
1 tub cream cheese frosting
1 package of Oreos (Double Stuf or not to Double Stuf... that is up to you) - you won't use the whole package of Oreos, but I'm sure you'll find something to do with extras. :)
Directions:
1. Mix and bake brownies per instructions on the box. (Or make your favorite brownie mix from scratch)
2. Let the brownies cool completely before moving to the next step.
3. Frost brownies with the cream cheese frosting.
4. Sprinkle crushed Oreos on top of frosting. Sometimes I'll crush up some Oreos and put them in the brownies before I bake them, but my husband doesn't really like them that way.
5. Cut and enjoy. (Or don't cut and just dig in. I won't judge.)
Husband Review:
Dan is not a big fan of these brownies. I like them, and I'm not a frosting person. They are super sweet, but very good. I think he just doesn't love brownies as much as other sweet treats. They are quick to make and easy to take somewhere for a dish to pass. Make them and tell me what you think.
