Key Ingredients
5
Servings
For the Recipe
- 15 Oreo cookies: Create the chocolatey base and add a crunchy cookie flavor.
- ½ tsp baking powder: Helps give the brownie a lighter, softer texture.
- ¼ cup milk: Combines the ingredients and creates a smooth, pourable batter.
- 4 pieces of Bournville Dark Chocolate: This adds a rich, intense chocolate flavor and helps create a fudgy center.
How to Make

Place the Oreo cookies in a blender or food processor and pulse until they turn into fine, even crumbs. Avoid over-blending into a paste.

In a bowl, combine the Bournville chocolate with warm milk. Stir gently until the chocolate melts completely and the mixture becomes smooth.

Add the crushed Oreo cookies to the melted chocolate mixture. Stir until the crumbs are evenly coated and incorporated.

Sprinkle in the baking powder and mix gently. Make sure it is evenly distributed throughout the batter for a consistent texture.

Pour the brownie batter into an oven-safe paper cup, leaving a little room at the top. Smooth the surface gently.

Place one whole Oreo on top of the batter and bake for about 10 minutes. Keep an eye on the brownie and avoid overbaking if you want a soft, gooey center. Let it cool for at least 10 minutes before carefully removing the cup and serving.

Why This Brownie Is the Easiest Dessert You'll Make
This Oreo Bournville Gooey Cup Brownie is perfect when you want a quick chocolate dessert without a long ingredient list or complicated preparation. Crushed Oreo cookies form the base, while Bournville dark chocolate adds a rich, intense cocoa flavor. Everything comes together in one bowl before being baked in a cup, making cleanup easy too. It is an ideal single-serve treat for late-night cravings, movie nights, or whenever you want a warm brownie without making an entire batch.
Pro Tips for a Perfectly Gooey Center
- Don't Overbake: Remove the brownie as soon as the center looks set but still slightly soft. Overbaking can make it dry.
- Choose the Right Cup: Use an oven-safe paper cup or suitable baking cup that fits comfortably in your oven.
- Keep the Chocolate Smooth: Gently melt Bournville with warm milk, stirring until completely smooth, before adding the Oreo crumbs.
- Create an Oreo Core: Place a whole Oreo in the center of the batter before baking for an extra crunchy surprise.
- Add Coffee: A small pinch of instant coffee can intensify the chocolate flavor without making the brownie taste like coffee.
- Let It Rest: Allow the brownie to cool for about 10 minutes. This helps the center settle while keeping it soft and gooey.
Fun Ways to Serve Your Cup Brownie
- Add Ice Cream: Top the warm brownie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic hot-and-cold combination.
- Try Oreo Crumble: Crush an extra Oreo and sprinkle the crumbs over the top before serving.
- Drizzle With Chocolate: Add melted Bournville or chocolate sauce for an extra indulgent finish.
- Add Nuts: Chopped almonds or walnuts can provide a pleasant crunchy contrast.
- Make It Festive: Finish with colorful sprinkles or a light dusting of powdered sugar for parties and celebrations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this in a microwave instead of an oven? 
Yes, you can use a microwave-safe cup and cook the brownie in short intervals, checking frequently to avoid overcooking.
Why did my brownie turn out too dry? 
The most common reason is overbaking. Remove it while the center is still slightly soft, as it will continue cooking as it cools.
Can I double this recipe for more servings? 
Yes, you can double the ingredients and divide the batter between separate cups. Avoid overcrowding the cups so each brownie cooks evenly.
How long does this brownie stay fresh? 
For the best taste and gooey texture, enjoy it fresh. If needed, store a completely cooled brownie in an airtight container for up to 1–2 days.
