Oreo Brownies

I've been in such a brownie mood lately. Any recipe I see for brownies immediately gets bookmarked for future baking. I made these delicious Oreo Brownies for a meeting one afternoon. These brownies were gone before the meeting was half over and my friend said they were the "best brownies she's ever tasted". I am inclined to agree with her. I could easily eat an entire pan of these babies in one sitting. Absolutely delicious.

Oreo Brownies

1 box brownie mix (with ingredients to prepare them according to package directions)

1 package oreo cookies- chopped

1 tub of cool whip- thawed

1 8 oz. pkg cream cheese- softened

2 cups powdered sugar

1 cup chocolate chips

Prepare brownies according to package directions. Add 1/3 of the chopped oreos. Bake according to package directions. Let cool completely. In a mixing bowl beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Fold in cool whip and another 1/3 of chopped oreos. Spread the cream cheese mix on top of cooled brownies. Melt chocolate chips in microwave. Spread evenly over cream cheese layer. Sprinkle remaining oreos on top. Refrigerate for at least an hour. Serve.

Thanks to Dayna for the recipe!
