Slutty brownies might seem like a strange name for a brownie, but they sure are delicious. Made with a combination of cookie, brownie, and Oreo, you can’t go wrong when you make these for your next function, or just to enjoy at home.

Why Are They Called Slutty Brownies?

The story of the slutty brownie name isn’t as exciting as you would think, but there are a couple of reasons they are named this way.

The brownies were named this way because of a blogger who took someone else’s recipe and decided to rename it so that it would go viral.

It’s a much shorter version of the original name, Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie n’ Oreo Fudge Brownie Bar which is difficult to remember.

In addition, another blogger insists the brownies are named that way because “a lot goes into them”.

Different Types of Brownies

Did you know not all brownies are created equal? There are actually three different types which are outlined below.

Cakey – Cakey brownies are lighter and airier than other types, having a consistency more like cake and less like fudge.
Fudgy – Fudgy brownies are the ones that you pick up and get chocolate all over your fingers. These brownies are dense, more like the texture of fudge, but not quite all the way there.
Chewy – Chewy brownies are most similar to fudge brownies but with a little less melt-in-your-mouth action. Rather you find yourself chewing a bit, but in a pleasant way.

FAQ

Are Brownies Better with Butter or Oil?

If you want more cakey brownies, butter is recommended. The butter will make the batter lighter and fluffier. For fudgier brownies, always use oil instead of butter.

What Makes a Brownie More Fudgy?

Fudgy brownies have more fat in them than flour and also don’t contain baking powder—two elements that keep them fudgy. When using a box mix of brownies, there is little to do to change this besides ensuring you purchase the type of brownie mix you desire.

Do Brownies Go on the Top or Bottom Oven Rack?

Brownies do best when they are cooked in the middle of your oven, so take a moment to switch the rack around to the middle to get your perfect brownies.
