Instructions:
- Prepare the Oreos:
- Start by breaking the Oreo biscuits into chunks. You can do this by hand for a rougher texture or use a rolling pin to crush them into smaller pieces. Be sure to leave some larger chunks for texture, as it adds to the chewy, crunchy bite of the bars.
- Melt the Chocolate and Butter:
- In a heatproof bowl, combine the milk chocolate and butter. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method), stirring occasionally until the chocolate and butter melt together smoothly. Alternatively, you can microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and well combined.
- Add Condensed Milk:
- Once the chocolate and butter are fully melted, stir in the sweetened condensed milk. This will give the bars a rich, creamy texture and a subtle sweetness. If you’re using vanilla extract, add it now for a boost of flavor. Stir the mixture well to combine all ingredients.
- Mix the Oreos with the Chocolate Mixture:
- Gently fold the crushed Oreos into the melted chocolate and condensed milk mixture. Be sure to coat the Oreos evenly in the chocolate. If you’re using chocolate chips, you can add them in at this stage as well for extra chocolatey goodness.
- Set the Bars:
- Line a square or rectangular baking pan (about 8×8 inches) with parchment paper. Pour the Oreo-chocolate mixture into the pan and press it down firmly to even out the surface. You want to make sure the mixture is compacted so that it holds together when cut into bars.
- Chill in the Fridge:
- Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for about 1-2 hours, or until the mixture is firm and set. The chocolate will harden, and the bars will be ready to slice into squares or rectangles.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Once set, remove the bars from the fridge and cut them into squares or bars. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week (if they last that long!).
Why These Bars Are So Irresistible
- Chewy and Crunchy Texture: The crushed Oreos add the perfect crunch, while the creamy chocolate mixture gives the bars a smooth, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Each bite is a delightful contrast of textures, making them even more enjoyable.
- Indulgent Yet Not Too Sweet: The sweetened condensed milk helps balance out the richness of the chocolate, while the Oreos bring a slight bitterness from the cocoa, creating a dessert that’s indulgent without being overly sweet. It’s the perfect balance of flavors for anyone who loves chocolate and cookies.
- Customizable: Feel free to add your favorite ingredients to make these bars your own. You could mix in some chopped nuts, dried fruit, or even marshmallows for added texture and flavor. You can also experiment with different types of chocolate — try using dark chocolate or a combination of milk and white chocolate for a twist.

Tips for the Best Chocolate Oreo Biscuit Bars:
- Use a Good Quality Chocolate: Since chocolate is the main ingredient, using a high-quality milk or dark chocolate will ensure your bars taste amazing. Opt for chocolate with at least 40-50% cocoa content for a rich, satisfying flavor.
- Let the Bars Set Properly: Be patient and give the bars enough time to chill in the refrigerator. This will help them set firmly and make them easier to cut into neat squares or bars.
- Store Properly: These bars can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, making them a great make-ahead treat. If you’re making them for a party, they can even be made a day in advance and kept in the fridge until serving.
- Serve with Ice Cream or Whipped Cream: For an extra indulgent treat, serve these bars with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. The creamy toppings complement the chocolate and cookies beautifully.
