Mega Stuffed Oreo Cookie Brownies

I made these Mega Stuffed Oreo Cookie Brownies for my nephew's birthday party. They were a huge hit! This recipe only makes 12 brownies so I was glad I made them a double batch.  Not one brownie survived the night. The boys polished off all 24 brownies before the sleepover saw the light of morning. You can use double stuffed Oreo or extreme stuffed Oreo cookies but I would not use the original Oreo cookies. The more cream filling the Oreo has the better they turn out. So for these brownies, I ...
