Neapolitan Oreo Brownies

Y’all, I’m stress eating like whoa. It’s been a rough few days without water or power, but we have it better than most. A tree fell, but missed EVERYTHING. We thought we were prepared with a generator and gas. But now we’re on day 4, and everywhere is out of gas, including our generator. At least we got water back last night. Sadly, the latest news from our mayor is that it’ll be another 7-10 days until we have power again. Bye-bye, freezer full of food.

I made these Neapolitan Oreo Brownies a while back, at least a month ago. I hadn’t had a chance to post them until now. Now seems like an appropriate time, because if I had a tray of these, I’d be sharing them with my neighbors and we’d all be drowning our sorrows in chocolate and Oreos.

There’s nothing overly complicated about these. I enjoyed them a lot, but some of James’s coworkers didn’t like the texture contrast between crunchy cookie and chewy brownie. I’ll let you be the judge.

Please keep the Northeast in your thoughts and prayers. If you can, donate to the Red Cross to help the people in this area. It really is dire here.

I need to bake a bunch of stuff and have it ready and waiting for when we lose power for a month...i mean, it seems like the thing to do these days. I need to find those Oreos..now!

Girl, I'm worried it's going to be a rough winter. It definitely seems like the thing to do. Also, these Oreos are at Target in the normal cookie area (they're not seasonal). That is, if your Target has power. Mine does not. *sigh*

These look amazing; how can you not love the crunchy/chewy combo?! And I'm SO glad your power came back on sooner than they said it would be. Still, NJ and NYC are in my thoughts & prayers; I know a lot of rebuilding is yet to come. With neighbors like you though I'm sure it makes it a little easier to get through it!

So sweet of you, Tracy. I thought his coworkers were nuts too! I thought they'd be all over these, and they just were NOT. But I certainly ate MY fair share and loved them!

I'm glad that your power has finally come back--I might make some of your brownies to celebrate by association. ;) In all seriousness, so glad it wasn't quite as bad for you as it was last year.

Me too, Tara, me too. Though I'm a little worried about this new storm we're getting tomorrow. Kind of over this extreme weather stuff! I personally think these brownies are perfectly celebratory. Maybe I'll make another batch!

I've been thinking about all the storm victims constantly! I'm glad you are okay and I hope things only continue to look up. You'll be in my thoughts.

I can't imagine not liking a cookie inside a brownie!

Things are going okay now, Allison. We're getting another storm tomorrow, so keep us in your thoughts!

I'm wondering how your freezer food fared. I'd be totally stress eating too! In fact, I think I DID, just thinking about you all. Be well. xox

We managed to keep it going until we got power back, amazingly. I appreciate your sympathetic stress eating, Aimee! <3
