Ok, reading the title for this post, I was like “whew” that is a mix and a half! Oreos…I love, brownies…what is not to love…CHOCOLATE BUNT CAKE?!?! YUM….having all three together. Wow. Now, I didn’t set out to make this decadent chocolate bundt all by myself. I have two other very important reasons, why this cake came into existence. Two gentlemen, whom shall remain nameless, actually caused me to have leftover oreo brownies!! I am definitely not going to eat all these brownies by myself and I certainly didn’t want to let them go to waste. So, as I often have seen, making leftovers appear different, will usually get people to eat this leftover. For Christmas, last year, I had a lot of leftover rice and Cornish hen, which my husband soon tired of eating. I made that into a delicious Fried Rice. So, I began working. My mother-in-law had given me this fun mini bundt cake molds and after greasing (just to ensure that the bundt unmolds properly) I crumbled up several brownies and placed them at the bottom of the molds. I altered the recipe, for my usual chocolate bundt cake recipe and poured the batter over those crumbled oreos. Into the oven they went! After they cooled, I topped them with some chocolate icing and presented it to my husband. Needless to say, he had no problems eating these leftovers 🙂 I feel so devious. Enjoy!
