Cookies and Cream Red Velvet Brownies, Oreo stuffed homemade red velvet brownies, topped with cookies and cream kisses!
Now that Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, red velvet everything is in high demand! You might even see another red velvet recipe from me next week, I’m sorry, I can’t help it. It’s a problem, I know! LOL.
We just love a classic red velvet cupcake but I wanted to do something more. I really like “bar” recipes, they are cute, handheld and so easy to customize.
Stuffing these red velvet brownies with Oreos then letting cookies and cream kisses melt on top and smoothing them out like a frosting just take these over the top! Jeremy even said this was the best dessert I’ve ever made… now that’s saying something!
Things you might need to make red velvet brownies:
How to make Red Velvet Brownies from Scratch
- In a 9×9 pan, line with parchment paper and place half of the brownie mixture in bottom, spreading to coat evenly.
- Next, layer in the Oreos. Pour the remaining batter on top and smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
- Place on a wired rack and immediately top with the kisses.
- Wait 10 minutes for the kisses to melt and with a spatula, smooth the kisses over the entire top.
- Let cool completely, place in the fridge and let set for an hour. (Or, if you prefer them warm you can skip the fridge.)
Cut into bars, serve and enjoy!
UGH, yes! Words cannot describe how amazing these are. Can’t you just tell by these pics, woah!
Wouldn’t your kids or sweetie (or yourself, I’m not judging!) go nuts over these?! I know I would, lol.
I really hope you enjoyed today’s ah-mazing recipe! What’s your favorite red velvet treat?!

These are absolutely GORGEOUS ❤️ I made this recipe for my family, but they came out very dry 🙁 I tried tweaking the recipe a bit because the batter was very thick. I’m thinking it’s a result of overcooking but I don’t know for sure..Do you have some tips?

Mine also came out extremely dry. The batter texture seemed more like a stiffer, whipped consistency so I also tried to adjust it a little. There’s definitely something up with this recipe, because it sounds and looks divine in the photos, but does not come out the same way.
