Oreo brownies, nom.

Hi everyone! so a couple of weeks ago a picture of some Oreo brownies made its way onto my twitter timeline and I was literally drooling. Now im not a huge baker, but I do love baking the odd cake or what not so I saw these brownies and just thought id bake them on a whim. So I googled a recipe and I actually used the bbc good food recipe as this is a great site and here is how they turned out and how you can make them yourself!
 

 
what you'll need:
 
-165g butter
-200g chocolate, finely chopped
-3 eggs
-2 egg yolks
-2 tea spoons vanilla extract
-165g soft light brown sugar
-2 table spoon plain flour
-1 table spoon cocoa powder
-a pinch of salt
-1 pack of Oreos, broken into quarters
-icing sugar, for dusting

 

  1. Preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4. Grease a 20cm square baking tin with butter, then line with baking paper with the paper overlapping the sides a little.
  2. Melt the butter in a pan over a medium heat. When the butter has melted, remove the pan from the heat and add the chopped chocolate. Leave to stand for a few minutes, or until the chocolate melts, and then stir together.
  3. Whisk the eggs, egg yolks and vanilla together in a large bowl until the eggs begin to get light and fluffy. Add the sugar in two additions, whisking between each. Pour it around the side of the egg mix so as not to knock out the air that has been whisked in. Keep whisking until the mixture becomes stiffer. Once the egg mixture is ready, pour the chocolate into it - again around the sides so as not to knock the air out.
  4. Add the flour, cocoa powder, salt and a third of the biscuits and stir until fully combined, then pour the mixture into the prepared tin. Scatter the remaining biscuits over the top, pressing them in slightly. Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 25–30 minutes. The middle should be very so slightly gooey. Leave the brownies to cool in the tin - the top will sink and crack a little.
  5. Pull the brownies out using the overlapping paper and cut into squares. Dust with icing sugar.
