Cookie Dough Oreo Nutella Brownies



Layers of chocolate chip cookie dough, Oreos and Nutella brownie are the ultimate form of decadence! If you're in the mood to indulge, I highly suggest you make these for yourself (and a few friends if you're feeling generous). Fair warning: these are NOT for the faint hearted! Ooey gooey, melt in your mouth and filthy rich, these brownies are absolutely out of this world. Have I convinced you enough to go make these ASAP?


INGREDIENTS:

COOKIE DOUGH LAYER:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup soft light brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup plus 2 tbsp flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

OREO LAYER
25 Oreo cookies (or similar chocolate sandwich cookies of your choice)

NUTELLA BROWNIE:
1 cup Nutella (slightly microwaved to make it more runny)
2 eggs
10 tbsp all purpose flour

METHOD:

Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. Grease a 9x9 inch baking tin and line with baking paper for easy removal later.

COOKIE DOUGH LAYER:
In a large bowl, using electric beaters, cream together the butter an both sugars until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla and beat until well incorporated. Sift in the flour, baking soda and salt and beat until just combines. Stir in the chocolate chips. Press cookie dough into the bottom of prepared tin.

OREO LAYER:
Arrange Oreos over the top of the cookie dough in rows and columns of fives.

NUTELLA BROWNIE:
Whisk together Nutella and egg until combined. Sift in the flour and gently fold until just combined (do NOT overmix). Pour batter over Oreo layer and smooth the top. Lightly tap the tin on the counter to make sure the batter reaches all the crevices between the Oreos.

Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the top is dry and brownie is just set in the centre. Allow to cool for at least an hour before removing from the pan and cutting into 16 squares.

Strawberry Coconut Banana Bread

Here's another healthy banana bread recipe for you all to try! This is such a unique twist on classic banana bread. I came across this recipe on  Ambitious Kitchen's  website and at first, was quite skeptical about it because, although I love both strawberries and coconut, I was curious to see how those two flavours work together and, more importantly, how they work in a banana bread. I made a few adjustments to the recipe according to the ingredients I had at hand and to make it healthier and the rest was a moist, fluffy, delicious slice of heaven with the perfect amount of sweetness, hint of banana flavour, chunks of juicy strawberries, and flakes of coconut speckled throughout. One of the most genius creations EVER! This banana bread is so flavourful on its own that it doesn't even need a topping, as the strawberries, once baked, are like little pockets of jam in the bread. However, if you'd like to make this a more wholesome breakfast or more filling snack, sprea...

How It All Began

It all started 5 years ago when I was 9. I still vividly remember the first treat I ever baked. It was a classic, rich, decadent chocolate fudge cupcake, from scratch. The minute I saw the spoon swirl in that smooth, dark batter I knew I had found my passion. I started off my baking journey by making a variety of cupcakes. I loved experimenting with the different flavours and get creative with the decoration. But small cupcakes started getting boring and weren't as satisfying as big cakes. I got bigger and bolder and started creating a line of delicious, indulgent cakes including cheesecakes, chocolate ganache, different flavours and various birthday cakes. All the positive feedback I was receiving really gave me more confidence to experiment an assortment of desserts that I would see michelin star chefs make on many TV shows, my favourite being MasterChef Australia. Before I knew it I found myself whipping up a collectio...

Gluten-Free Banana Bread

Now before you start to think of the dry, dense baked goods that come to your mind when you think of the word "gluten-free", let me tell you, this banana bread defies all the norms! It's moist, fluffy, lightly sweetened with honey and PACKED with flavour and nutrients! The secret? CHICKPEA FLOUR (commonly known as "besan" in urdu)! This adds a ton of protein and fibre to the banana bread making it the perfect nutritious and filling breakfast. You can customise it to your liking by throwing in your favourite add ins (I chose walnuts but chocolate chips would be divine!). Special thank you to Monique from  Ambitious Kitchen  for giving me the idea. I have adapted her recipe, making a few tweaks, to adjust it to my liking. INGREDIENTS: 4 medium ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 heaping cup) 1/4 cup honey 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 large eggs 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted and cooled 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar 1 1/2 cups chickpea flour (b...
