Food Time: Chocolate Oreo Loaf

Chocolate Oreo Loaf Recipe



A friend and I wanted to bake cookies the other week, so naturally, we just googled a recipe, and followed it. One thing: I didn't have any plain flour, so we just used self raising, considering there was baking powder in the original recipe too. As it was cooking, the middle was cooking a lot slower than the outside, and eventually, I had to get it out of the oven, otherwise it would burn! The outcome wasn't what we were expecting, a gooey cookie dough consistency in the middle with a crunchy crust. We left it to cool, and though still gooey in the middle, it tasted amazing!

Want to find out how to make this yummy recipe?! Look no further for a gooey chocolate chip oreo loaf!  

Ingredients: 


                   Brown Sugar                        260g
                  Butter                               85g
                  Eggs                                 x3
              Vanilla Essence                       1 tsp
             Self Raising Flour                      320g
 Oreo Cookies (or a cheaper alternative)      1 pack
White chocolate buttons (or chips)         70g
    Chocolate buttons (or chips)              70g


Instructions: 

Step 1: Pre-heat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius. 

Step 2: Cream the butter and sugar in a large bowl, by hand or with a mixer

Step 3: Add in the eggs and vanilla, and stir until smooth


Step 4: Add the flour in a bit at a time, and making it easier to fold





 Step 5: Crush the Oreos and add a majority to the mix, leaving some to sprinkle on top. We did it by keeping the packet closed and crushing them using a glass.  





Step 6: Weigh out the chocolate buttons/chips. If you use buttons, they will need breaking up. An easy way to do this is pile a few up, and break them as if you're breaking a bar of chocolate. Then add a majority to the batter, leaving some for the topping, and mix in.


Step 7: Line a pyrex dish or baking tin with foil, bearing in mind the dough will rise, so don't use a loaf style baking tin

Step 8: Pack the mixture into the pyrex dish, using your fingers to press it into the corners. Then add the topping of left over Oreos and chocolate chips. 





Step 9: Put in the oven for 35-45 minutes. If it's still gooey in the middle, that's normal! When out of the oven let it cool off for 15 minutes

Step 10: ENJOY! You can either eat them fresh, or freeze them for a later date!


Happy baking!
