Brownies
ingredients
- 1 cup salted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 ¼ cup sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 4 eggs, at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
- 20 Oreos
Frosting
ingredients
- ½ cup salted butter, melted
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2-3 tablespoons milk, at room temperature
- ⅓ cup cocoa powder
- 22 candy pumpkins, for decorating
- ½ cup crushed Oreos, for topping
For the brownies:
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350° and grease and line an 8×12 or 9×11 baking pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl combine melted butter, oil, granulated and brown sugar. Whisk to combine.
Step 3
Add in vanilla and eggs and beat for 30 seconds, until the batter becomes a lighter brown.
Step 4
Sift in flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Mix lightly until just combined. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
Step 5
Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Evenly layer on the Oreos and top with the rest of the batter.
Step 6
Bake for 25 – 30 minutes or until the center no longer jiggles. If you want fudgy brownies, do not overbake! If you prefer cakey brownies, bake for 5-8 minutes longer.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and let cool completely before frosting. Once the brownies are cooled, make the frosting.
For the frosting:
Step 1
In a large bowl combine the melted butter, vanilla extract and powdered sugar. Beat on medium speed until frosting is smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Remove about ⅓ cup of the frosting and dye green.
Step 2
To the stand mixer beat in the cocoa powder and add in 1 tablespoon of milk at a time until you reach the desired consistency.
For assembly:
Step 1
Once the brownies have completely cooled spread on the fudge frosting. Top with crushed Oreos. Add green frosting to a piping bag fitted with a small round tip and pipe swirled vines on top. Add candy pumpkins, slice and serve.
