These brownies go by a much more scandalous nickname, but since it’s (almost) Christmas, we’re just going to call them Christmas Brownies. Whatever you call them, they’re decadence personified. And thanks to your favorite boxed chocolate chip cookie dough and brownie mixes, Christmas brownies are a cinch to make.
To make these beauties, the bottom layer is chocolate chip cookie dough, and then you place a layer of Oreos in the middle. Other times of the year, you can use any type of Oreo. For Christmas, I like to alternate Holiday Oreos and green Mint Oreos.
These brownies are perfect for when you’re not sure what to bring to a gathering, school function, or just because. Just don’t tell the kids their real name!
