Triple‑Layer Oreo Brownies are the ultimate treat for times when only three layers of sweetness will do! Aka Slutty Brownies, it's chewy cookie dough, a full‑sized Oreo centre, and a rich fudgy brownie top all in one pan. If you love my Churro Blondies or Chocolate Marshmallow Cookies, you'll see this bake has the same fudgy deliciousness we all love. Perfect as a dessert, picnics or a bbq, or just for an anytime (indulgent!) snack.

I use my no-chill chocolate chip cookie dough and best-ever brownie batter for this recipe, so everything's familiar and easy to prep. The Oreos soften just enough while baking to give a creamy middle layer, and the top stays rich and fudgy. They're like fudge Oreo brownies with a chewy cookie twist. You can slice them into neat squares once chilled, or go crazy and eat them straight from the tin with a spoon (no judgment here).

How to Make Triple Layer Brownies
- Step 1: Make your cookie dough using a stand mixer. Press 500-600 g of dough evenly into the base of the tin. Smooth it out with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
- Step 2: Lay 25 Oreos in a grid on top of the cookie dough, covering the base as evenly as possible. 25 fit into this 9 inch pan perfectly!
- Step 3: Mix your brownie batter: quick and easily by hand, in one bowl. Pour it over the Oreos and gently smooth the surface.
- Step 4: Bake at 160°C fan (180°C conventional) for 45-50 minutes, or until the top looks set and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out with moist crumbs (not raw batter).
Hint 1: Don't skip the chilling time: it's the key to sharp, tidy slices and holds the layers together.
Hint 2: Scoop leftover cookie dough into balls and freeze for later cookie cravings. See my how to freeze cookie dough post.
Best brownies ever!
We had to fight over the last square."
Substitutions & Variations
- Golden Oreo brownies: use Golden Oreos for a vanilla version
- Mint Oreo brownies: swap in Mint Slice or mint Oreos for a holiday feel
- Caramel Oreo brownies: Add a swirl of caramel before baking for something different
- Prefer boxed mix? You can use Oreo brownies with brownie mix or Oreo brownies with cookie dough (store bought) - just adjust baking time by 5-10 minutes
Equipment
- 9-inch square brownie pan
- Stand mixer (for cookie dough)
- Large bowl and spatula (for brownie mix)
- Sharp knife or electric knife
- Baking paper
Storage
- Room temp: Up to 3 days in an airtight container
- Fridge: Up to 1 week (great chilled and served with a scoop of ice cream)
- Freezer: Up to 3 months. Slice first, then freeze with baking paper between layers
Top Tip
Use a hot knife or an electric knife for perfect squares every time. Wipe between cuts and slice cold, then bring to room temp (or microwave for 15 seconds) for gooey centres.
FAQ
Yes. While I prefer homemade, boxed mixes work. Just adjust baking time slightly if your mix is extra fudgy.
Yes, substitute GF flour in both the cookie and brownie layers, and make sure your Oreos are gluten-free.
Yes, but it's easier to slice and freeze in portions. Wrap well and thaw as needed.
Double-stuffed or loose placement can cause floating. Press regular Oreos gently into the cookie dough to anchor them.
