Method
Part 1: Making the Fudgy Brownie Base
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan and line with parchment paper, leaving overhang on sides.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter and granulated sugar. Whisk until well combined. Add eggs one at a time, whisking after each. Stir in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet, mixing until just combined.
- Pour batter into pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center has moist crumbs. Cool completely in pan, about 1-2 hours.
Part 2: Creating the Creamy Mint Oreo Layer
- While brownies cool, beat softened butter with electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Gradually add powdered sugar, mixing on low. Add milk and peppermint extract. Beat on medium-high for 2-3 minutes until creamy. Add green food coloring if desired.
- Fold in chopped Oreo cookies. Spread evenly over cooled brownie base. Refrigerate for 30-60 minutes to set.
Part 3: Finishing with Chocolate Ganache
- Place chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Heat heavy cream until simmering.
- Pour hot cream over chocolate, let sit 5 minutes. Whisk until smooth.
- Cool ganache slightly, then pour over chilled mint layer. Spread evenly. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours until firm.
- For clean slices, use a hot knife dipped in water, wiping between cuts.
