You know what always cheers me up? Food. What am I going to write about? Food. Whenever I got bored at home I always did one of two things: I would watch tv or I would bake. Not exactly sure why, but baking never failed to put me in a good mood. One time I made over 75 cupcakes just for the hell of it. Now my absolute favorite treat to serve people are my infamous Slutty Brownies. Before you ask, no, I do not know why they are named that. I first learned how to make them from my older sister, and after that it was my new go-to dish! I would bring them to school if it was someone’s birthday or if I was bored the night before. I would make them for all my friends at my dance studio. They were always such a hit and everyone loved them. Nothing says joy like a three layered brownie! Recently I have been writing about deeper content, but as a way to lighten the mood and prove that there is brightness even when the world seems dark, I am going to share my recipe, so that everyone can treat themselves to such a tasty dessert.

First up is the list of ingredients! You will need the following:

• Roll of cookie dough (works best with pre-made dough and not make-it-yourself dough like Betty Crocker, ya know?)
• Box of brownie mix (Any brand is fine for this)
• Eggs, Veggie Oil, Water (amount should be listed on back of brownie box)
• Pack of Double Stuffed Oreos
• Rectangle cake pan
• Wax Paper

Now that you have everything you’ll need, the next step is to preheat the oven. Make sure the oven is empty then preheat it to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, you'll need to lay a sheet of wax paper on the cake pan; this assures that the brownies won’t stick to the pan. Once the wax paper is on, remove the cookie dough from it’s wrapping and spread it across the bottom of the pan. After the dough is flattened across the entirety of the pan, you are going to want to grab the Oreos. You will begin to line them up on top of the cookie dough. Try to keep the Oreos as close to each other as possible in order to cover the cookie dough. The next thing you’re going to do is put the pan aside and grab a bowl to mix the brownie batter in. Follow the instruction on the back of the box, mix all the ingredients together, then pour the batter over the cookie dough and the Oreos in the cake pan. I tend to use the spoon I used to mix the brownie batter to gently spread it out, so that it covers the entire pan. All that’s left to do is to put them in the oven and set the timer for approximately 34 minutes. Use a knife to to check the brownies after the time is done. Stick it through the middle and if the knife comes out clean then the brownies are done. Let them stand for about an hour or so then enjoy!
