Ingredients You’ll Need

• Unsalted butter
• Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• Granulated sugar
• Eggs
• Vanilla extract
• All-purpose flour
• Cocoa powder
• Baking powder
• Salt
• Halloween Oreos with orange filling

Optional swaps: use chocolate chunks instead of chips for bigger bites of chocolate, regular Oreos if you can’t find the Halloween pack, or candy eyes and sprinkles on top for extra spookiness.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare the brownie batter

Melt butter with chocolate chips until smooth and glossy. Whisk in sugar, then beat in eggs one at a time for that shiny crackly top. Stir in vanilla.

Layer with Oreos

Fold in your dry ingredients just until combined don’t overmix. Spread half the batter in a greased baking pan, press Oreos across the surface, then cover with the rest of the batter.

Bake and cool

Bake until the top is set but the center is still fudgy. Let them cool completely before slicing it’s torture, but worth it for neat squares.

Add spooky toppings

Scatter crushed Oreos, drizzle melted chocolate, or press candy eyes into the top while still warm. These little touches make the brownies party-ready. Pro tip: kids will go wild if you set these next to a platter of Halloween rice krispie treats.

Tips & Variations

For clean slices chill the brownies first, then use a warm knife. For extra gooey texture toss a handful of chocolate chips into the batter. Want an over-the-top version? Spread ganache on top and sprinkle with more Oreos. For storage, keep them in an airtight container at room temp for 3 days or freeze up to 2 months. Want a savory balance for your dessert table? Serve these brownies alongside playful Halloween mummy hotdogs kids and adults will love the combo.
