Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1.5 cups granulated sugar
• 4 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
• 0.5 cup powdered sugar
• 1 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (e.g., Oreos)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until smooth. Let cool slightly.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, 3 of the eggs, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 4

Slowly stir in the melted chocolate mixture, followed by the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Mix just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Pour 3/4 of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar, the remaining egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until creamy.

Step 7

Gently fold in the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies into the cream cheese mixture.

Step 8

Drop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture over the brownie batter in the pan, then pour the remaining brownie batter on top.

Step 9

Use a knife or skewer to swirl the brownie and cream cheese mixtures together to create a marbled effect.

Step 10

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

Step 11

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares and serving.
