Easter Brookies combine three decadent layers of chocolate chip cookies, classic Oreos, and gooey chocolate brownies for a flavor explosion in your mouth! This recipe is SO easy, because all you have to do is bake it all in a 9×13 pan and cut out the Easter egg shapes with a cookie cutter. I have a delicious recipe to make from scratch below, however if you want to cut your time and ingredients in half, you could actually make this with premade cookie dough and a brownie mix! There are detailed step by step instructions below, however if you’d like to skip down to the recipe, feel free to scroll!

Even though there are three layers in these Easter Brookies, the ingredients are all simple! (Especially the Oreo layer! Ha!)

Instructions for Easter Brookies

Cookie Layer Instructions

Oreo Layer Instructions

Brownie Layer
First, place the butter and the baking chocolate in a large, microwave safe bowl. After that, heat for 30 second intervals for 2 minutes or until chocolate is completely melted, stirring in between each time until the chocolate is smooth. Next, add the sugar and stir. Add eggs, vanilla, cocoa and stir well. Then, add the flour and stir well.
Spread brownie batter over the top of the Oreos in prepared pan.
Bake for 30-40 minutes until the top of the Easter Brookies looks done and the center is cooked through.
Let cool completely, for 1-2 hours. With a cookie cutter, cut out egg shapes. Add frosting (homemade or premade) and Easter sprinkles, if desired.
What are Brookies made of?
Most brookies have two layers: brownies and cookies. However, I added an extra layer to these with the Oreos!
