Ingredients

• 1 pound unsalted butter
• 1 pound semisweet chocolate chips
• 6 ounces unsweetened chocolate
• 6 large eggs
• 3 tablespoons instant espresso powder
• 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
• 2.25 cups granulated sugar
• 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 cups crushed Oreo cookies

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 12x18x1-inch baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a heatproof bowl, melt the butter, semisweet chocolate chips, and unsweetened chocolate together over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, espresso powder, vanilla extract, and sugar together until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Slowly pour the slightly cooled chocolate mixture into the egg mixture while stirring until fully incorporated.

Step 5

In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet chocolate mixture, taking care not to overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold the crushed Oreo cookies into the batter, ensuring the pieces are evenly distributed.

Step 7

Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Step 9

Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares. Serve and enjoy!
