Triple Chocolate Oreo Bars from Cookies and Cups

Triple Chocolate Oreo Bars - made March 29. 2024 from Cookies and Cups 
1 16.6-ounce package of Oreos
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1 cup white chocolate chips, melted
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a 9 x 13-inch pan with foil and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Set aside 8 Oreos. Place the rest in a gallon ziploc bag and crush with a rolling pin. 
  3. Empty the Oreo crumbs in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add melted butter and salt, mix to combine. Press mixture into an even layer in bottom of prepared pan.
  4. In the top half of a double boiler set over hot water, combine sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, semisweet chocolate chips and milk chocolate chips. Stir until combined and melted.
  5. Pour melted mixture over Oreo layer and smooth into an even layer. Chop remaining Oreos into chunks. Sprinkle chopped Oreos and mini chocolate chips evenly over the filling. Bake 20-22 minutes. Cool for 1 hour.
  6. Melt the white chocolate chips and drizzle over the brownies. Let set before cutting and serving.
Here’s an easy bar cookie recipe if you’re short on time and need to feed a crowd. It’s fastest if you pulverize the Oreos in a food processor but once you’ve got the Oreo cookie crumbs for the bottom layer, the rest of the process goes quickly.

The sweetened condensed milk forms the top for the creamy layer and is a little rich. If you want a more chocolate punch, cut back on the milk chocolate chips and increase the semisweet chips. I followed the recipe as written and was okay with it but I have a high tolerance for sweet over chocolate. 


I liked the look of these, especially with the white chocolate drizzle to contrast with the dark chocolate and Oreos. The top layer was creamy-sweet, tempered with the dark Oreo crust and complemented by the white chocolate drizzle. This is a good bar cookie to serve to a crowd, especially anyone with nut allergies since this doesn’t contain nuts.
