Ingredients: 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 12 ounces semisweet chocolate, broken up 1 1/2 cup sugar 3/4 cup butter or margarine 1 cup all-purpose flour 1/4 cup Dutch process cocoa, sifted 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 4 large eggs, at room temperature 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules or espresso powder 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract 15 Oreo cookies or other chocolate sandwich cookies, broken into chunks 5 extra Oreo cookies or other chocolate sandwich cookies, broken in half for garnish
Directions: Arrange a rack in the middle of your oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
Spray an 11 by 7 by 1 1/2 inch brownie pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place the tablespoon of flour into the pan. Shake it all around and tap it over a sink or garbage can to discard excess.
In a heat-proof medium bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, heat the chocolate, sugar, and butter or margarine. Whisk until melted and smooth. Remove bowl from heat and set aside to cool to room temperature, about 15-20 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the flour, sifted cocoa, baking powder, and salt.
In a medium bowl, with a mixer at medium speed, beat the eggs, coffee granules and vanilla until foamy. If your stand mixer has a whisk attachment, it will work well here.
Blend the cooled chocolate mixture into the egg mixture. Sprinkle all but four tablespoons of the flour/cocoa mixture into the chocolate mixture.
Place the broken Oreos into the remaining flour/cocoa mixture and toss to combine. Add the Oreo mixture into the chocolate mixture, stirring gently to combine. Try not to crush the cookies.
Pour batter into prepared pan. Place the extra broken cookies on top of the batter for garnish.
Bake for 35 minutes. Do not over bake. Allow to cool. Refrigerate, tightly wrapped, until cold.
Cut into squares. Store tightly wrapped in refrigerator. Serve chilled.
