Brownies are something almost everyone likes. I bet these delicious Oreo Brownie Chocolates (Pralines) will get the same attention when served… probably even more ;) They are small, cute, and super chocolaty – so small nobody will notice you grabbed one from the plate with the sweets. At least that is what’s happening here at home. Gone in a hot second and never seen again. Well, unless you make another batch ;)
Back in the days I was a big fan of brownies. I could have eaten them constantly. A brownie and a cup of coffee – make everything better! Nowadays, regular brownie recipes are usually too much for me. Even my own recipes. I still like to eat them, but most of the recipes are for big baking dishes and that is just too much for two people. I mean, I like to share my bakes but brownies… not so much. And eating a whole batch is just too much ;)
Well… 25 of these little fellas are also not exactly a small amount. You got me! ;) But in my defense – it is actually a small baking dish and they last a bit longer because they are covered in chocolate and that keeps them fresh. Means you don’t have to eat them all at once. Also a great gift for friends or family members. In this case, I am willing to share. Because they look cute and I want others to be able to enjoy them too ;)
Coating the mini brownie pieces and decorating them with the mini Oreos takes a moment – but as soon as you covered the first ones with chocolate you will get the hang of it and the rest is much easier to do and probably done quicker. After that you just have to keep yourself together and avoid eating them while still drying ;P An Almost impossible task, I know. Been there, done that.
INGREDIENTS / ZUTATEN
For the brownies:
1/4 cup (60g) butter, melted
1/2 cup (100g) sugar (or xylitol)
1 large egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 cup (30g) all-purpose flour
1/4 cup (30g) cocoa powder
1 pinch of salt
3.5 oz. (100g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
4 Oreos, crumbled
For the decoration:
5.3 oz. (150g) semi-sweet chocolate coating
1/2 tsp. coconut oil (if needed)
Mini Oreos
Für die Brownies:
60g Butter, geschmolzen
100g Zucker (oder Xylitol)
1 Ei (L)
1 TL Vanille Extrakt
30g Mehl (Type 405)
30g Kakaopulver
1 Prise Salz
100g Zartbitter Schokodrops
4 Oreos, zerbröckelt
Für die Dekoration:
150g Zartbitter Kuvertüre
1/2 TL Kokosöl (optional)
Mini Oreos
DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG
2. Add the melted butter and sugar to a large bowl. Mix until well combined. Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix well. In a second bowl mix the flour, cocoa powder, and salt until well combined. Add to the bowl with the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Add the chocolate chips and crumbled Oreos and fold in. Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan, smooth out the top, and bake for about 18-20 minutes. Check with a toothpick – the brownies are done when the toothpick comes out mostly clean. Some moist crumbs are ok. Remove from oven and let cool completely, then cut into 25 pieces.
3. Chop the chocolate for the decoration coarsely, add to a microwave-safe bowl and melt slowly. If the melted chocolate seems too thick add some coconut oil and mix in. Dip the mini brownies into the chocolate to cover the top and sides (leave the bottom side free of chocolate) and place on a large piece of baking parchment or a wire rack. Place a mini oreo on each mini brownie and let cool/dry completely. Store in a tin box in a cool place.
4. Melt the chocolate coating – if the chocolate sauce is too thick, add a little coconut oil and stir it in. Dip the brownies into the chocolate (cover the top and sides), let them drip off a bit, then place them on either a cooling rack or a piece of baking parchment. Separate the Oreo cookies, remove the cream and then press a cookie into each of the chocolates while they are still warm and allow them to cool/dry. Store in an airtight container in a cool place.
2. Geschmolzene Butter und Zucker in eine große Schüssel geben und gut verrühren. Das Ei und den Vanille Extrakt dazugeben und unterrühren. In einer zweiten Schüssel Mehl, Kakaopulver und Salz mischen, dann zur großen Schüssel dazugeben und alles nur kurz verrühren. Schokodrops und zerbröckelte Oreos dazugeben und unterheben. Den Teig in die vorbereitete Form füllen, glatt streichen und etwa 18-20 Minuten backen – mit einem Zahnstocher testen, ob noch Teig kleben bleibt und die Brownies erst herausholen, wenn dieser (einigermaßen) sauber herauskommt. Aus dem Ofen holen und komplett abkühlen lassen, dann in 25 Stücke schneiden.
3. Die Kuvertüre schmelzen – sollte die Kuvertüre zu dickflüssig sein, etwas Kokosöl dazugeben und unterrühren. Die Brownies in die Kuvertüre tauchen, etwas abtropfen lassen und dann entweder auf ein Abtropfgitter oder Stück Backpapier setzen. Die Kekshälften der Mini Oreos trennen, die Creme entfernen und dann je eine Kekshälfte in die noch warme Kuvertüre der Pralinen drücken und abkühlen/trocknen lassen. In einem luftdichten Behälter an einem kühlen Ort aufbewahren.

I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
