Report
Not too rich, but just rich enough, Cookies and Cream Brownies are fudgy-licious chocolate brownies topped with chunky Oreo icing.

Ingredients
Brownies:
- 1 cup spelt flour or substitute for plain or all purpose flour
- ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup natural sweetener or sugar of choice
- ¼ cup brown sugar firmly packed
- 1 teaspoon aluminium free baking powder
- ⅓ cup light butter or cold pressed coconut oil melted
- ½ cup low fat vanilla yoghurt
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon alcohol free vanilla extract
- ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
- 6 Oreo cookies or a healthy oreo cookie substitute
Frosting:
- 8 oz container low fat cream cheese
- ¼ cup natural sweetener or sugar of choice
- ½ tablespoon alcohol free vanilla extract
- 4 Oreo cookies crushed finely
- (Optional) extra cookies for decorating
Instructions
Brownies:
- Preheat oven 176℃/350℉. Spray a 9-13-inch baking tray with oil spray, wipe over with a paper towel, and set aside.
- Whisk flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, sugar and baking powder until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the butter/oil, yoghurt, egg, vanilla and milk until combined.
- Pour into the dry ingredients and mix well with a wooden spoon (being careful not to over beat).
- The batter should be smooth, creamy and lump free.
- Fold through crushed cookie pieces.
- Pour batter into baking tray and bake for 25 - 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean. (my toothpick came out a little 'dirty' when I took them out after 30 minutes, and they were beautiful, moist and fudge-y).
- While brownies are baking, make creamy frosting!
Frosting:
- Whisk frosting ingredients in a separate bowl until lump free.
- When brownies are done, remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before frosting
- Once cooled, frost with cream frosting and top with extra crushed cookies if you wish.
- Gently cut into 20 bars.
Notes
- You can use either Oreo cookies or a healthier Oreo cookies substitute! Or omit them altogether!
- For more of a decadent dessert type of bar...sprinkle some chocolate chips over the top! Because there's never such thing as too much chocolate!
