Oreo Fudge Bars


We are going to a friends house for dinner tonight and I volunteered to bring along a dessert. It was requested that the dessert be something chocolate, so I thought these would be perfect! I made them last night and left them in the refrigerator over night. When I sliced them today I cut myself a small piece and OH MY- they are fabulous. Give this recipe a try- it's amazing!

Ingredients:

1 16oz. package of Oreo cookies
1 stick butter, melted
1/4 tsp satl
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips (could use another 1/2 cup semi-sweet chips if you like)
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 325.
Line a 9×13 pan with foil and lightly spray with PAM.
Set aside 6 Oreo cookies for the toppings.
In a small food processor grind the rest of the cookies. If you don’t have a food processor, just pound with a rolling pin until the cookies are fine crumbs. Add the salt to the crumbs and stir to combine.
Melt butter and gently stir together with the cookie crumb mixutre.
Press firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
Coarsely chop the remaining cookies into chunks and set aside.
Over a double boiler or in the microwave, melt 3/4 cup semi-sweet and 1/2 cup milk chocoalte chips together with the condensed milk and vanilla.
Stir frequently until smooth.
Spread evenly over the prepared cookie crust.
Sprinkle the mini chocolate chips and the Oreo cookies chunks over the top of the filling. Press down gently into the chocolate topping.
Bake for 20-22 minutes oven.
Allow to cool on counter for 1 hour. Chill in fridge until completely cold and set before cutting into bars or it will make a big mess.

  6. Do you know the purpose of the salt addition? Just curious. I made these to take to a friend's house and they were incredible.

  7. Baxzy- salt is added to most baked goods to bring out the flavors and enhance the tastes. Salt is usually in all cookies, cakes, etc.
