1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

3/4 cup light brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

2 cups (12 oz bag) milk chocolate chips

1 pkg double stuffed oreos

1 family size (9×13) brownie mix

1/4 cup hot fudge topping (optional)

PREHEAT oven to 350 degrees F.  Cream the butter and both sugars in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed for 3-5 minutes.  Add the eggs and vanilla and mix well to thoroughly combine.  In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt, then slowly incorporate into the mixer until the flour is just combined.  Stir in chocolate chips.  Spread the cookie dough in the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish that’s been lined with wax paper and sprayed with cooking spray.  Top with a layer of Oreos.  Mix together brownie mix, adding an optional 1/4 cup of hot fudge topping to the mix.  Pour the brownie batter over the cookie dough and Oreos.  COVER with foil and bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes.  Remove foil and continue baking for an additional 15-25 minutes.  Let cool completely before cutting–brownies may still be gooey in the middle when still warm, but will set up perfectly once cooled.  Enjoy!  Just click the Printer Friendly Button under my name to print the recipe!
