Ingredients

  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter (or margarine as a substitute)
  • 2 cups White Chocolate Chips (milk chocolate chips can be used for a deeper flavor)
  • 1 large Egg (flax egg can replace for a vegan version)
  • 1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt (optional)
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour (gluten-free flour can be used as an alternative)
  • 15 Oreos, crushed
  • 5 Oreos, additional crushed for topping

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8″x8″ baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the unsalted butter and white chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth.
  3. Step 3: Whisk in the large egg, sweetened condensed milk, and salt until the mixture is well combined.
  4. Step 4: Gradually fold in the all-purpose flour until just incorporated to avoid overmixing.
  5. Step 5: Stir the crushed Oreos into the batter, then pour everything into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
  6. Step 6: Sprinkle the remaining crushed Oreos on top for added texture and flavor.
  7. Step 7: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center remains slightly soft.
  8. Step 8: Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 1 hour before cutting into squares to ensure clean slices.

Tips & Variations

  • Use a flax egg as a vegan alternative by mixing 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed with 3 tablespoons water and letting it sit for 5 minutes before adding.
  • For a richer flavor, swap white chocolate chips with milk chocolate chips or a mix of both.
  • Press some whole Oreos lightly into the top of the batter before baking for an extra decorative touch.
  • To avoid overbaking, start checking the brownies at 30 minutes. They should be set on the edges but slightly soft inside.

Storage

Store leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a week or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat gently in the microwave to bring back softness before serving.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use regular chocolate instead of white chocolate?

Yes, you can substitute white chocolate chips with milk or dark chocolate chips, but it will change the flavor profile toward a more traditional chocolate taste rather than the creamy sweetness of white chocolate.

How do I make these brownies gluten-free?

Simply replace the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend that measures cup-for-cup. Ensure the Oreos you use are gluten-free as well for a fully gluten-free dessert.
