- 120g white sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 50ml plant-based milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 220g plain flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder

Ingredients for the Brownie:
- 200g dark chocolate, melted
- 80ml neutral oil (such as sunflower or canola)
- 240ml room temperature plant milk
- 200g soft light brown sugar (or white sugar)
- A pinch of salt
- 140g plain flour
- 40g cocoa powder
- 100g chocolate chunks
Additional:
- One pack of Oreos
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 160°C (fan setting). Line a 20cm square baking tin with parchment paper.
- For the cookie base, combine the melted butter and both sugars in a bowl until well mixed. Stir in the salt, milk, and vanilla. Gradually mix in the flour and baking powder. Fold in the chocolate chunks just before the mixture is completely smooth to avoid overmixing. Press this dough into the prepared tin, ensuring an even layer. Freeze while preparing the brownie batter.
- For the brownie layer, whisk together the melted chocolate, oil, and plant milk. Add the sugar and salt, mixing thoroughly. Sift in the flour and cocoa powder, blending until smooth. Fold in the additional chocolate chunks.
- Remove the cookie base from the freezer and arrange a layer of Oreos on top. Pour the brownie batter over the Oreos, smoothing the surface.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 50 minutes. The brownies should be set but slightly jiggly in the center.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the tin. For the best texture, refrigerate overnight before slicing into bars.
