Happy Friday! If you follow me on Facebook, then you know that I am out of town! My cute little family drove 12 hours to surprise my younger sister {who was visiting my older sister} before she goes to college. Man, was her reaction priceless! We recorded the whole thing, so maybe I’ll have to post that video later! We are having a ball hanging out with my side of the family, enjoying some seriously HOT weather.
In the mean time, here is a recipe I whipped up last week that my family devoured. Literally devoured. No leftovers. {Are there ever dessert leftovers in my house? Haha….never!}
You know how on the back of the brownie mix boxes, there are directions to make cookies? Well, for this recipe, you do just that but instead of making cookies, you bake the whole thing in a square pan. Then you top ’em with cream cheese frosting and oreo cookies to give you….drumroll please…. Cookies ‘n Cream Brownie Bars! {Sounds tasty, right?}
Man are these good! I love cookies ‘n cream ANYTHING. I was on a s’more kick the last few weeks and now have moved onto a cookies ‘n cream kick. Do you guys like cookies ‘n cream? We {apparently} REALLY REALLY do. Crunchy, creamy, chocolate, vanilla….it’s a little bit of everything! Oh, and did I mention that these are healthy? Well they are! 🙂 And by healthy I mean easy. Very very easy! Take a look at the ingredients list and you’ll see what I mean.
So, I hope you guys find some time to make these this weekend! Everyone will love ’em! See you back in Oregon on Monday!

Sounds incredibly tasty! Have fun with your family.
Totally love this recipe! I’m a sucker for cookies ‘n cream anything!
Yeah, me too! That’s why I ate half the pan!
Ditto the above–cookies ‘n’ cream is my FAVORITE classic ice cream flavor. These look so yummy! I’ve made cookies ‘n’ cream brownies before, but I’ve never added white chocolate chips–totally on my to-do list. 🙂
I love those kinds of to-do lists!
Awwwww what a fun surprise! She will take that memory with her to college and be so grateful for it! Such a sweet family 🙂
I’d post some pictures, but she forbade me! Typical teenager! Lol!
YUM. My sister is planning a Cookie Monster birthday for her 2-year-old boy in October. She wants to serve only cookies – but this might be a nice addition, while keeping with the cookie theme!
What a fun party idea!
I just fell out of my chair.
Have fun seeing sissy!
Your sister must have been so excited! Have a great time.
These look AMAZING.
oh…wow…words seem to elude me right now! These are just totally irresistible! 🙂
These look to die for!
What a great idea! I love cookies ‘n cream anything!! Enjoy the time with your family.

Love it… very creative. If you don’t mind me asking, what mix did you use?
I used Duncan Hines fudgy brownies…19 ounces I think…?!
Mmmm I’m with you. I also love cookies and cream anything! Yum!
Ooo these look so good!! Yum!
These look fabulous! Glad you’re having a great time.
Yum…these look fabulous…I love anything that has cookies and cream in it! When I first saw them I thought there was peanuts in the brownie layer and I just about died with excitement, but after reading the recipe, I realized they are white chocolate chips. Still, it looks like a must-try recipe!
Oh, great idea! Now I need to make this again with peanuts!
Ha! look at that last picture! Awesome! And ps. these brownies are dangerous.
They are totally dangerous! I ate almost the entire pan. No joke.
Thanks for your Cookies N Cream Brownies recipe. I made them tonight and my family loved them!

[…] Honestly, I was secretly hoping to find morocco’s national dessert to be ice cream cake….or something involving oreos. […]
[…] if you think you wouldn’t want to try this recipe today, give my simple sugar cookie bars, my Cookies n’ Cream Brownie Bars or my Actually Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies (which is the recipe I based this recipe off […]
I made these brownies a couple times and they are always the first to go. My husband loves anything with Oreos and the addition of the brownie takes it over the top. I’ve been following Lauren’s Latest for at least 7 years, maybe more, and it’s very inspiring and positive.
These sound right up my husbands alley! He loves all the things cookies n cream as well. I will have to try these this weekend for our anniversary!
