If you’re looking for the dessert that pulls zero punches—this is it. Slutty Brownies are unapologetically over-the-top, wildly indulgent, and absolutely unforgettable. With a thick chocolate chip cookie base, a layer of Double Stuf Oreos, and a rich, fudgy brownie topping, these bars are stacked to impress.

I know the name is bold—but so are the flavors. These brownies are gooey, chewy, melty, and crunchy all at once. And the best part? You only need simple pantry ingredients and a little bit of layering magic to make the most ridiculous dessert you’ll ever crave.
What Are Slutty Brownies?
Slutty Brownies are a three-layer dessert bar made from:
- Chocolate chip cookie dough (you can use a mix or homemade)
- Double Stuf Oreo cookies layered in the middle
- Boxed brownie mix, made extra rich and fudgy
They’re called “slutty” because they’re decadent, indulgent, and a little over-the-top in all the best ways. The name took off online years ago, and now people all over the world make their own version of this sinful stacked treat.
What Makes These So “Slutty”?
Let’s just say these brownies don’t hold back. They’ve got three indulgent layers—cookie dough, Oreos, and brownies—all stacked into one over-the-top bar. The name Slutty Brownies comes from the idea that they’re a little “naughty” because they mash together multiple desserts into one ridiculous treat.
The term was meant to be cheeky—not offensive—and quickly caught on as people realized there was no better way to describe a dessert that breaks all the rules in the most delicious way. There’s nothing shy about these bars. They’re messy, gooey, decadent, and fully unapologetic.

These Went Viral For a Reason
Slutty Brownies didn’t start in a cookbook—they blew up online. They first made waves around 2011 when a lifestyle blog posted the recipe and gave it the iconic name. From there, the internet exploded with love for this outrageous dessert.
The concept went viral on Pinterest, Tumblr, Reddit, and foodie forums. Why? Because:
- They looked crazy good in photos
- They were easy to make with box mixes
- And the name made people do a double take
Food bloggers, influencers, and even mainstream sites like Buzzfeed jumped on the trend, and the recipe stuck. Now over a decade later, Slutty Brownies are still one of the most searched layered desserts on Google—and for good reason.
Ingredient Breakdown
Chocolate Chip Cookie Layer:
- 1 (17.5 oz) bag of chocolate chip cookie mix – I used Pillsbury, but any brand works. You can also use refrigerated dough if you’re in a hurry.
- ¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips – Adds even more melty goodness.
- 1 stick (½ cup) salted butter, melted – Richens up the dough and makes mixing easy.
- 1 large egg – Helps bind everything together.
Oreo Layer:
- 1 (14.3 oz) package of Double Stuf Oreos – The extra filling matters here! Feel free to use any chocolate sandwich cookie, but Double Stuf gives that thick white stripe in the center that looks amazing when sliced.
Brownie Layer:
- 1 (18.3 oz) box of brownie mix – I used a 9×13-size box. Great Value or Ghirardelli both work great.
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips – For a little texture and bonus fudge factor.
- 2 large eggs – Creates a cakier, sturdier brownie top (better for slicing).
- ¼ cup melted salted butter – Enhances richness.
- ¼ cup milk – Replaces water to keep the batter thicker and more flavorful.
Variations & Twists
- Peanut Butter Slutty Brownies – Add peanut butter cups instead of Oreos.
- S’mores Version – Use graham cracker cookies + marshmallow-stuffed brownies.
- Mint Chocolate – Use mint Oreos and add a few drops of peppermint extract to the brownie batter.
- Gluten-Free Option – Use gluten-free cookie mix, GF Oreos, and a GF brownie mix.
- Halloween or Holiday-Themed – Swap Oreos for the seasonal ones with orange or red filling.
Troubleshooting Tips
- Brownies still jiggly after baking? They might just need a few more minutes. Stick a toothpick in the center—it should come out with moist crumbs but not raw batter.
- Edges overbaking? If your oven runs hot, cover with foil during the last 10–15 minutes of baking to keep things even.
- Cookie dough sticking to your hands? Lightly flour your fingers or use a wet spatula to press it evenly into the pan.
- Too sweet for your taste? Skip the extra chocolate chips or use dark chocolate instead.
Call Them Whatever You Want (Especially Around the Kids!)
Look, we get it—Slutty Brownies is a name that might make you hesitate, especially if you’ve got curious little ones repeating everything you say. The good news? You can totally rename them for your crowd and still enjoy all the chocolatey goodness.
Here are some fun, family-friendly alternatives:
- Triple Layer Brownie Bars
- Cookie Oreo Brownie Squares
- Over-the-Top Brownies
- Layered Chocolate Dream Bars
- “Don’t Ask What They’re Called” Brownies 😄
- Stacked Cookie Brownies
- Oreo Stuffed Brownies
- Kitchen Sink Bars
Whether you stick with the cheeky name for laughs or go with something more PG for your bake sale table, they’ll still taste just as ridiculous and amazing.
Storage & Serving Tips
To Store:
Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or in the fridge for up to 1 week.
To Freeze:
Slice cooled brownies into squares, wrap each piece in plastic wrap, and place in a freezer-safe container. They’ll keep for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight or warm in the microwave for 15 seconds before serving.
To Serve:
These are incredible warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of fudge sauce. But they’re just as good straight from the fridge—gooey and firm.
My Favorite Topping Combos
While classic Slutty Brownies don’t need anything extra, I love to dress them up for special occasions:
- Birthday Style – Add a swirl of whipped cream and sprinkles on each square.
- Ice Cream Bar-Ready – Serve warm with vanilla or cookie dough ice cream + hot fudge.
- Holiday Version – A drizzle of white chocolate and crushed peppermint for winter flair.
- Loaded Up – Top with crushed Oreos, more melted chocolate, and sea salt flakes.
Kid-Friendly Decorating Station
If you’ve got kids, this is a fun one to let them help with:
- Let them layer the Oreos – Ariya had so much fun lining them up like little bricks.
- Sprinkle station – Let them top cooled brownies with rainbow sprinkles, mini marshmallows, or crushed candy.
- Cookie-cutter shapes – Slice cooled brownies using large metal cookie cutters for fun holiday shapes!
Cookie Chemistry: Why These Ingredients Matter
Room Temperature Eggs = Even Texture
Cold eggs can make your batter lumpy and harder to mix. Room temp eggs blend smoother and give an even crumb.
Baking Mix Substitutions
Not all brownie or cookie mixes are created equal. Stick to family-size (9×13-inch pan) packages and check for any unique liquid ratios on the box. Adjust accordingly if your mix is thicker or thinner.
Butter Over Oil = Better Flavor
Butter gives that rich, bakery-style flavor and firmer structure. If your mix calls for oil, swapping in melted butter is always worth it.
How to Pack These for Gifting
Slutty Brownies make awesome edible gifts—just be sure to cool them fully before packaging. Here’s how to keep them looking cute:
- Wrap individually in wax paper squares and stack in a bakery box.
- Use decorative tins with parchment between layers to prevent sticking.
- Add labels with heating instructions for that gooey just-baked feel.
- Skip messy toppings if you’re mailing or delivering them far.
How to Make These Without Oreos (Still Amazing!)
Want to skip the Oreos? No problem! You can:
- Use graham crackers or chocolate chip cookies instead.
- Add a layer of peanut butter or Nutella over the cookie dough for a double-layered effect.
- Just stick with cookie dough + brownie—still decadent and delicious.
They won’t technically be “slutty,” but they’ll still be indulgent and crowd-pleasing.
FAQ – Slutty Brownies
Can I use homemade cookie dough?
Absolutely! If you have a favorite chocolate chip cookie dough recipe, feel free to use it instead of the mix.
What if I only have regular Oreos?
Totally fine. Double Stuf gives more visual impact, but regular ones work just as well.
Can I make these in a smaller pan?
Yes—cut the recipe in half and use an 8×8 pan. Just reduce the baking time to about 30–35 minutes and keep a close eye on doneness.
Why are they called “Slutty Brownies”?
The name went viral online years ago—it’s playful, referring to the dessert being “naughty” because of all the indulgent layers stacked together. You can call them “Layered Cookie Brownies” or “Triple Threat Bars” if you prefer a more family-friendly version.
Can I double the recipe?
You can—but instead of a deeper pan, use two 9×13 pans to keep the layers consistent. A deep single pan might undercook in the center.
Final Thoughts
Slutty Brownies are the kind of dessert you make when you really want to impress… or just treat yourself. They’re gooey, thick, melty, chocolate-loaded, and totally unapologetic. My family goes wild for them—and honestly, every time I make a batch, they disappear before they’re even fully cooled.
Whether you stick with the classic or try your own twist, one thing’s for sure—these brownies live up to the hype.
