Tips for Making Spooky Bat Oreo Brownies

  • You can take a few shortcuts by using box mix brownies and store-bought frosting instead of making them from scratch.
  • Try using different flavored Oreos in the brownies. The Candy Corn flavored or orange colored cream Oreos would look awesome!
  • Double Stuf Oreos are the easiest to make a clean cut through the center.
  • To make a “buttercream” that tastes just like the cream inside an Oreo, check out this recipe for Oreo Cream Brownies!
  • You can just eyeball the amount of hot fudge sauce on the top. I didn’t measure it out, but I can tell you that didn’t use the entire 11.5 ounce jar.

Spooky Bat Oreo Brownies

Yield: 15
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes

Fudgy brownies with a layer of Oreos in the middle topped with a whipped vanilla buttercream, fudge sauce, and another Oreo for good measure.

Ingredients

  • brownies, baked and cooled*
  • vanilla buttercream
  • 8-12 ounces store-bought hot fudge sauce, room temp
  • 30 Oreos*
  • 30 candy eyeballs

Instructions

  1. Spread buttercream on top of the brownies.
  2. Drop small dollops of hot fudge sauce (NOT heated) over the buttercream. Use the offset spatula or a knife to swirl the hot fudge sauce into the buttercream.
  3. Split the remaining 15 Oreos. Layer the halves with the cream, cream side up,  on top of the swirled frosting.
  4. Pipe two small dots of fudge sauce on the Oreo cream and place two candy eyeballs on the fudge sauce.
  5. Take the "plain" remaining halves of the cookies and cut them in half to make the bat wings. Press them into the frosting under the bat "heads" (as pictured).

Notes

*Before baking: spread half of the batter in the baking dish. Layer 15 Oreos (5 rows of 3 cookies) over the batter, and then spread the remaining batter on top of the Oreos.
