    Can you believe it’s Halloween already? I feel like this year went flying by! I’ve never been crazy about Halloween but it’s no secret that I’m a sucker for sweets. So I’ll use any excuse and get in the spirit with some seasonal baking and sweet treats. 

    What is a “Brookie”?

    Is it a brownie? Is it a cookie? It’s both! It’s a brookie. Now, you never have to choose again between a fudgy brownie or chocolate cookies. You get the best of both worlds here in one recipe. 

    If you’ve never heard the term “Brookie” let me explain. It’s when you take cookie dough and brownie batter and bake them together in one recipe, typically in bar form. 

    What's in this Oreo Brookies Bar?

    • Top Layer: almond flour brownie cookie dough
    • Center Layer: Halloween Orange Creme Colored Oreo
    • Bottom Layer: almond flour cookie dough layer

    Typically a brookie only has two layers, the cookie dough and the brownie batter. But I thought, why not take it one step further, in the spirit of Halloween, and sandwich a layer of orange cream filled Halloween Oreo cookies between the layers? It’s the perfect Halloween dessert when you can’t decide between the two… or three. 

    Ingredients You’ll Need:

    To make these bars, you only need a few ingredients:

    • Butter
    • Light brown sugar
    • White sugar
    • Egg
    • Vanilla extract
    • Almond flour
    • Unsweetened cocoa powder
    • Baking soda
    • Sea salt
    • Milk chocolate chips
    • And of course Oreo pieces

    How to make the Brookie Bars:

    The Halloween Oreo Brookie Bars are made completely from scratch, minus the Oreos of course. The cookie dough and brownie mix are both made with almond flour. The best part is, there’s no decorating involved and no special skills needed. 

    To make the brookies it’s as simple as: 

    1. Mix the batter in a large bowl for the almond flour chip cookie dough and the almond flour brownies. 
    2. In a baking pan, layer the cookie dough on the bottom, then a layer of Ores cookies in the middle and lastly the brownie layer on top. 
    3. Bake them in the oven for about 35 minutes. Then cut them into squares and let the vibrant hint of orange color add a festive touch.

    Recipe FAQ

    Can I use boxed chocolate chip cookie or brownie mix?

    This recipe can be made with prepackaged cookie dough and brownie box mix however my recipe uses almond flour.

    What size baking pan do I need?

    Use a 8×8-inch or 9×9- inch pan for this recipe, one with 2″ sides. Use metal or glass, whichever you prefer.

    What if the brookie needs to bake longer than the time given?

    If you think the brookies need to bake a little longer, keep baking in increments of five minutes. Check the center of the brookie with a toothpick or knife.

    Do I need to wait before cutting into the brookies?

    Make sure to let the brownies cool fully before slicing. Otherwise, you’ll have a bit of a mess.

    How do I store them?

    You can store your brownies in an airtight container and store them at room temperature. If you prefer you can store them in the refrigerator. They will store for around 5-7 days.

    Ingredients

    • 12 Oreos

    Almond Flour Cookie Dough

    • 2/3 cup butter salted, at room temperature
    • 3/4 cup brown sugar
    • 1/4 cup white sugar
    • 1 egg
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    • 2 3/4 cups almond flour
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
    • 3/4 cup chocolate chips

    Almond Flour Brownies

    • 1 cup almond flour
    • 1 cup white sugar
    • 1/2 cup cacao powder
    • 2 large eggs at room temperature
    • 2 tablespoons butter salted
    • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

    Instructions

    Almond Flour Cookie Dough

    • Preheat oven to 350°F
    • Cream together the butter and sugars in a large mixing bowl with an electric handheld or stand mixer.
    • Mix in the egg and vanilla. Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
    • In another small bowl whisk together the almond flour, baking soda and salt until combined. Add the dry ingredients to the sugar mixture and mix in on a low speed until a dough forms.
    • Stir in the chocolate chips with a spoon or rubber spatula.
    • Set aside

    Almond Flour Brownies

    • In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut sugar, cacao, eggs, oil, baking soda, vanilla, and salt, and stir well to form a thick batter. It will be much thicker and stickier than a traditional brownie batter, so be sure to mix well and break up any lumps.
    • Set aside

    Assembling the Brookie

    • Make sure your oven is Preheated to 350°F.
    • Prepare a “8x8” pan with cooking spray
    • Press the cookie dough into the bottom of the prepared pan.
    • Top evenly with Oreos.
    • Spread brownie batter over the top of the Oreos in the prepared pan.
    • Bake for 35-45 minutes until the top looks done and the center is no longer jiggly. Test with a toothpick or knife.
    • Remove from the oven and let the brookies cool completely in the pan and then cut into squares and serve.
    • Store bars in an airtight container.
