I’ve been wanting to post these Slutty Brownies for YEARS but I only never got around to photographing them. But I’m glad that I finally did because HOW FUN are these!? I’m still deciding how I feel about the name but it’s what these are traditionally called so we’re going with it, friends! And I’m not even including the nutritional info with this one because no one needs to see that. LOL!

These are a fun, every once in a rare while kind of dessert:) BUT, they’re also so incredibly savory and great shared with a crowd.

Ingredients you’ll need

This slutty brownies recipe is completely in a home kitchen. It’s also egg-free, dairy-free, and completely VEGAN! Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make it:

Cookie dough: 1 batch of my vegan chocolate chip cookie dough. This is a familiar chocolate cookie recipe that results in a soft and chewy base.
Oreos: You can use double stuffed Oreos or regular, your choice! You’ll need about 24 Oreos.
Brownie batter: 1 batch of my vegan brownie batter. Perfectly gooey and rich!
Flaky sea salt: Optional but I think flaky sea salt over brownies is the dependable finishing touch.

Variations

Baking chips: My chocolate chip cookie dough recipe uses dairy-free chocolate chips and chunks. Feel free to use your regular variety! Experiment with white chocolate, milk chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate chips, dark chocolate, mini chocolate chips, mint chips, butterscotch or even peanut butter chips.
Oreo flavors: There are always new Oreo flavors coming. I prefer the old-school white icing Oreo and even double stuff but there are mint, chocolate, peanut butter and golden. Mix up the Oreo flavors depending on the time of year or holiday!
Add frosting: To truly take these to the next level of indulgence, you can add frosting. Top with a thick layer of Chocolate Vegan Buttercream Frosting or another go-to. Oreo frosting would be quite satisfying!

How to cook this method

While slutty brownies do take a bit of time to assemble, the whole recipe is honestly particularly unfussy. They start with a batch of my vegan chocolate chip cookie dough. Then, a batch of my vegan brownie batter. Here’s the process:

Prep: Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line an 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
Make the cookie dough base: Make the cookie dough according to the directions and press it evenly and firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
Add the Oreo layer: Top the cookie dough with the Oreos, breaking some in half as needed to fit in the pan.
Make the brownie topping: Make the brownie batter according to directions and pour it on top of the Oreos. Spread the batter out evenly.
Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let rest for 1 hour before slicing into the brownies (I know this is hard but it holds up!). ENJOY!

Helpful tips

Fit the Oreos: When assembling, it may be necessary to break some of the Oreos, so they fit in a single layer in the pan.
Use pre-made dough and boxed brownie mix: To save a bit of time, feel free to use store-bought cookie dough and boxed brownies. I’ve made them that way before and they turned out standout as well! So, choose your own adventure.
Let cool: It’s particularly important to let the brownies cool for at least 1 hour before slicing (a little longer is even better). If you try slicing them while still hot out of the oven, you’ll have a gooey mess.

Frequently asked questions

Storage recommendations

Storing leftovers: Store slutty brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Freezing: Once the brownie bars have cooled, use the ends of the parchment paper to lift the bars out of the pan. Leave the bars uncut and wrap the entire batch in plastic wrap then aluminum foil. Freeze for up to 3 months. Defrost in the refrigerator before cutting and serving. You can also individually wrap the bars and freeze them too!
