TRIPLE OREO BROWNIES

Today might just be the most important day in all of March…it’s National Oreo Day, people!!!

Sure, St. Patrick’s Day lands in March as well, but in my eyes, it’s more of an excuse to get drunk and pinch strangers all day. Green was never my favorite color…

National Oreo Day, on the other hand, is all about that one and only creme-filled dark chocolatey cookie we’d all murder a leprechaun for.

Too violent?

So, in honor of America’s favorite cookie, I decided to create the ultimate treat for the Oreo addict in all of us…

These Triple Oreo Brownies may be a triple threat to our waistlines, but they’re also triple the deliciousness because they contain THREE luscious layers of Oreo goodness in every single delectable bite.

See? Good things DO come in three.

INGREDIENTS
Brownies:

• 1 box brownie mix*
• Unsalted butter in place of oil called for on box
• Water called for on box, hot
• 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
• Eggs called for on box
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 cup finely crushed Oreos
• 1/2 cup Heath chocolate toffee bits
• Truffle Layer:
• 24 Oreos
• 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
• Oreo Frosting:
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 1 (7 oz) container marshmallow fluff
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• Pinch of salt
• 3/4 cup powdered sugar
• 5 Oreos, finely crushed
• Extra Oreos for topping
• Sprinkles

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Make the Brownies: Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. As the butter melts, it’ll start to foam, then turn a clear golden color. Continue to stir the butter, scraping up any browned specks from the bottom of the pan as it starts to brown. It should have a nutty aroma.
3. Once browned and nutty, turn off the heat and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Add espresso powder to the hot water and stir until dissolved.
