Slutty Brownies & Delicious Chocolate Chip Cookies

I made these puppies for my AC lab one day and boy were they popular! However, the corner pieces ended up being very crunchy because I wanted to make sure that the brownies were fully cooked and not gooey(even though they are totally delicious gooey) because I was cutting them up to hand out at school, so if I were to make this again, which I most certainly might, I would not cook it for as long so that the cookie on the bottom is softer and less crunchy. If you like the edges crunchy and non gooey brownies then i suggest you bake them for extra time like I did. The cookies made from the excess dough were quite delicious, my dad claims they are the best ever, especially because I doubled the recipe because I was making it for school so my mixer could barely handle the amount of dough that the chocolate chips all sort of stayed at the bottom of the bowl so when I made the cookies from the later half of the dough it had a massive amount of chocolate chips which made them very chocolaty. As I mentioned before, I doubled the recipe and it made ALOT of goods so the recipe below will not make as much as is shown in the pic above.
INGREDIENTS:

Brownie Layer:   
-10 tbsp unsalted butter
-1 1/4 cups white sugar
-3/4 cup cocoa powder
-1/2 tsp salt
-2 tsp vanilla extract
-2 large eggs
-1/2 cup flour

Oreo Layer:
-1 package double stuff oreos

Cookie Layer:
-1 cup unsalted butter (at room temp)
-1/2 cup brown sugar
-1 1/2 cup white sugar
-2 eggs
-2 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
-2 1/2 cup flour
-1 tsp salt
-1 tsp baking soda
-1 tsp baking powder
-2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS:

Brownies:
In a medium sauce pan, melt the butter over medium high heat. Add the sugar and cocoa powder once the butter is melted. Whisk to combine and remove from heat. Add the salt, vanilla and eggs and continuously whisk until the eggs are combined. Add the flour and continue to mix. Set batter aside.

Cookie Dough:
Cream together the butter and sugars in a mixer. Add the eggs and vanilla, making sure to scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl. Add the flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder and mix on low until everything is incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips. Set dough aside.

Assembly:
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
Line the bottom of a 9x9 baking pan with tin foil and then spray the tin foil with a layer of baking spray.  Layer 1/2 of the cookie dough on the bottom of a 9x9 baking pan, pressing down to form the bottom of the slutty brownies. Reserve the remaining cookie dough to be used to make cookies later in the day.  Layer as many oreos that will fit on top of the cookie dough. No need to overlap. One single layer will do.  Pour the brownie batter on top of the oreo layer and make sure it's evenly layers on top.  Bake for 30-35 minutes. Test with a knife to see if the center is done. If the knife comes out clean, let the brownies rest before serving. If the knife comes out with batter still on it, allow the brownies to bake about 5 minutes more.  Serve with ice cream :)

For Cookies:
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees, spoon left over cookie dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Pop in oven and bake for 7-10 min or until golden brown and delicious. Transfer to a wire rack, cool, and enjoy!!
