Halloween Oreo Brownie FAQs

How do I store these Halloween Oreo brownies?

Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or refrigerate to extend freshness.

Can I freeze them?

Yes! Wrap each one individually or in place in a Ziplock or freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.

Can I add chocolate chips to my brownies?

Definitely! Add ⅓ cup of your favorite semi-sweet chocolate chips or chocolate chunks to make your Halloween Oreo brownies extra rich.

How can I take these Halloween Brownies with Oreos to the next level?

If you want to make even more of a show-stopping dessert, bake the brownies, allow them to cool down fully then top them with a thick layer of orange frosting or even vanilla frosting, then top with some chocolate ganache or even some chocolate frosting and an extra layer of Oreos to create that super impressive dessert!

How can I get the perfect brownie slices?

Tip number one is to always allow your brownies to cool down fully. I let mine cool down for 8 hours before I sliced them here for the photos! The next tip is to use a sharp knife to slice them. If you want to be a little extra dip your knife in a tall glass of warm water to heat up the blade a little bit, wipe it with a piece of paper towel then slice into your brownies!

Ingredients 
 

  • 2/3 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 2 eggs cold
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 15 Oreos Extra 5 for topping

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 350F then line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl melt the butter, oil, and both sugars, together in 30-second intervals mixing in between every time. Once fully melted microwave for another 1 minute and stir vigorously to allow the sugar to melt fully. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer here is best.
    2/3 cup butter, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • Whisk in the eggs one at a time then add in the vanilla. You want the batter to pull from the bowl a little bit.
    2 eggs, 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Add in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt and fold just until combined.
    1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 cup all purpose flour, 2/3 cup cocoa powder
  • Pour half of the batter into the parchment paper-lined baking pan and spread evenly.
  • Place the Oreos in the center of the batter (see photo) then top with the rest of the brownie batter and spread to cover.
    15 Oreos

  • Top with the 5 crushed Oreos and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  • Allow the brownies to cool down fully on a wire rack before slicing into them for the perfect square crinkle top slice every time.

Notes

Let them cool completely before slicing: At least a few hours on a wire rack. I wait 8 hours for the cleanest squares. Cut them warm and the Oreo layer smears.
Melt the sugar fully: The extra minute in the microwave and a hard stir dissolve the sugar, which is what gives you that shiny crinkle top.
Use regular Halloween Oreos: The ones with orange filling, not Double Stuf. Whole and halved Oreos go in the middle, crushed ones on top.
For clean cuts: Dip a sharp knife in hot water and wipe it dry between slices.
Storage: Airtight at room temperature for up to 5 days, or wrap and freeze for up to 3 months.

    I made these last night and they are dangerously! Sooo good! And such a simple recipe! Thank you!

    1. Chahinez Tabet Aoul says:

      I love that you enjoyed it so much!! It’s one of my fav recipes :)!

  2. Lara says:

    Did you use salted or unsalted butter Can’t wait to make these

    1. Chahinez Tabet Aoul says:

      Unsalted. I hope you enjoy it 🙂

  3. Nora Tachi says:

    I use Benton Halloween Oreos from Aldi and when I cooked them, they turned yellow like the inside turned yellow, kind of weird I haven’t ate them yet, but they look delicious.

  4. Kelsey says:

    Question for making them! If I make the 32 count of brownies does the pan change or is it still an 8×8 pan?

    1. Chahinez says:

      I would bake it in a 9×13 if you decide to double this recipe!

  5. Lauren says:

    These were a smash hit at a party. Didn’t leave with any extras! Glad I made an extra batch for home haha

    1. Chahinez says:

      I’m glad everyone enjoyed them!

  6. Admira says:

    These look so GOOD! If I make them in a 9×13, should I change temperature on the oven and how much more time do I add to baking time? Thanks for your time!

    1. Chahinez says:

      Thank you! If you’re baking the brownies in a 9×13 pan, you won’t need to change the oven temperature—keep it at the same temperature as the original recipe. However, you may need to adjust the baking time since a larger pan will result in slightly thinner brownies. Start checking around 5-10 minutes earlier than the original time and test with a toothpick for doneness. If it comes out clean or with a few crumbs, they’re ready!

  7. Christina says:

    Could you make with box mix brownies?

    1. Chahinez says:

      Yes you can!

  8. Michelle says:

    5 stars
    Looks easy and very versitile towards other mix ins.

    1. Chahinez says:

      Thank you!

  9. Glory says:

    Can you freeze these? Having an Halloween party. Want to make ahead of time.

    1. Chahinez says:

      Absolutely! Pop them in an airtight container and in the freezer for up to 3 months. You can let them thaw in the fridge overnight or on the counter for a few hours. My favorite way to enjoy them since I am very impatient is to pop them in the microwave for a few seconds to get them gooey again and let that rich chocolate flavor shine through again 😁
