1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, at room temperature.
04 -
1 1/2 cups Oreo cookies, chopped.

09 -
1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
10 -
2 large eggs.
11 -
1 teaspoon baking powder.
# Instructions:
01 -
Turn your oven to 350°F. Put foil or parchment in a 9x9 metal pan and spray it down so it doesn't stick.
02 -
Beat up butter and brown sugar till smooth. Stir in eggs and vanilla. Blend in cocoa, baking powder, flour, and salt.
03 -
Mix red coloring and crushed cookies into the batter. Spread out in the pan and sprinkle chocolate chips on top.
04 -
Cook for 22-24 minutes until the center lightly wobbles. Let it cool all the way before slicing.
# Notes:
01 -
Metal pans are the way to go for the best bake.
02 -
The center will jiggle slightly when it's perfectly baked.
03 -
Use a bit of cooking spray on your hands—it helps keep the dough from sticking.
