Servings: 9
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter melted
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 2 ¼ cup sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- ¼ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ chocolate chips
- 20 oreos
- 9 gummy worms
Fudge topping
- 1 cup condensed milk
- 1 ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- 2 Tablespoon brewed espresso coffee
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper; set aside.
- Using a standing mixer or electric mixer, combine melted butter, vegetable oil and sugar together in a large mixing bowl. Whisk well for about a minute. Add the eggs, milk and vanilla; beat until lighter in color.
- Sift in flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, chocolate chips and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Pour the brownie batter into prepared pan, smoothing the top out evenly.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the centre of the brownies in the pan no longer jiggles and is just set to the touch (the brownies will keep baking after they're removed from the oven).
- Remove and allow to cool to room temperature.
- While your brownies are cooling, make your fudge topping. In a saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate and condensed milk. Stir constantly until combined then add your espresso coffee and continue to stir for another minute.
- Once the brownies have cooled, cut them into 9 even squares.
- Place the ganache inside a piping bag. Cut the tip of the bag to make a small hole. Squeeze bag to pipe frosting over brownies.
- Place oreos inside a ziplock bag and using a rolling pin crush the cookies until fine crumbs,
- Sprinkle the oreo crumbs over the top of the brownies with fudge.
- Over the crushed oreos place a gummy worm. One gummy worm per brownie
