Cooking with Kelly: Celebrating my 500th Post with Ultimate Brownies

Seriously, it's here? How do I have enough to say to fill 500 posts? Simple, I never shut up. True story, ask my friends.

So in honor of this post, enjoy the Ultimate Brownies, which are also known as No Calorie Left Behind Brownies.

My coworker had a birthday this week and she mentioned she liked brownies. And I immediately thought, do I have a brownie recipe for you.

Because the recipe for this is so simple and is more of a method than anything, I'm mostly just sharing photos.

Ultimate No Calorie Left Behind Brownies

1 package oreos

1 package cookie dough

1 package of chocolate icing

1 package family-sizes brownies, prepared as directed

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9 x 13 inch pan with parchment paper. Press the cookie dough into the pan to form the first layer.

Arrange the oreos on top of the cookie dough. You may need to cut some of the cookies into pieces to make it all fit, but you likely won't use the entire package of cookies.

Carefully pour the brownies on top of the oreos, spreading to cover the oreos evenly. Bake for one hour, or until the brownies are cooked through. Remove from the oven and allow to cook completely.

In the meantime, use a stand mixer with the whisk attachment to whip the prepared icing. It looks nicer and is fluffier that way. Complete the awesomeness that is this brownie creation with the icing and serve to the amazement of all your friends.

Then run like 10 miles, because these are downright sinful.
