SHEET PAN FUDGY CHOCOLATE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a large, rimmed baking sheet (12X18-inches) and set aside.
• In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and chocolate; microwave in 1-minute intervals, stirring in between, until the mixture is melted and smooth (don't overheat, it should be slightly warm, if at all). Add the sugar and stir until combined.
• Whisk in the eggs and vanilla, and mix until large bubbles pop at the surface - it will go from looking slightly curdled to really glossy and thick so keep stirring until you see the change. In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the batter and mix once or twice. With dry streaks remaining, add the chocolate chips and mix until well-combined.
• Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes until edges are set but the middle is still slightly gooey. If you want extra dense, fudgy brownies, halfway through the baking time, carefully lift up the baking pan and let it drop on the oven rack to release any air bubbles (totally optional). Let the brownies cool completely in the pan (I like to refrigerate them after they have baked and cooled - easier cutting and ultra-delicious, and don't get me started on how incredible these are straight from the freezer).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F and spray a large baking sheet or 13x18 baking sheet with edges with nonstick cooking spray (or line with parchment paper).

• While butter mixture is cooling, in a small bowl combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• In a stand mixer with the whisk attachments, whisk together the butter mixture (it's okay if it's still warand the sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, letting each egg become fully incorporated into the batter before adding the next Once the eggs are all added, mix in the vanilla.
• By hand, with a large rubber spatula or mixing spoon, fold in the flour Folding in the flour will help the brownie batter keep the air in it.
• Fold in candy pieces.
• Pour into baking sheet and bake for 15-17 minutes or until a tooth pick comes out clean. If using a 9x13 you will cook them for 25-30 minutes.

Press 6 of the chocolate sandwich cookies on top of the batter in the next section. Roll the reserved cookie dough into balls and arrange on top of each chocolate sandwich cookie and in the large diamond-shaped gaps between the cookies (do not place the balls too close to the edges of the section, or they may spread into the other sections). Swirl the dulce de leche into the batter in the next section and top with a sprinkle of coarse sea salt. Press the candy-coated chocolates into the cookie dough in the top right section.
• Working from left to right on the bottom row, press the crushed potato chips into the cookie dough in the first section, then arrange the pretzels on top. Press the graham cracker bears into the brownie batter in the next section. Top the next cookie section with alternating rows of cream cheese bits and white chocolate chips. Last, sprinkle the semisweet chocolate chips on the final section of brownie batter.

• Meanwhile, prepare the toppings: Microwave the remaining 1 tablespoon peanut butter in a small microwave-safe bowl until smooth and pourable, about 15 seconds. Crush the remaining 2 chocolate sandwich cookies. Transfer the frosting to a pastry bag.
• Drizzle the warm peanut butter over the swirled peanut-butter brownie section and top with the crushed peanuts. Sprinkle the remaining crushed chocolate sandwich cookies over the section containing the whole cookies. Swirl the frosting over the candy-coated chocolate candy section and top with the rainbow sprinkles. Top the graham cracker bears with the mini marshmallows and toast with a small kitchen torch (or broil the marshmallows under a low broiler for about 1 minute). Last, sprinkle the freeze-dried raspberries over the chocolate chip brownie on the bottom right.
