The marshmallow frosting is a dreamy, pillowy topping, and the final drizzle of warm, gooey fudge ties it all together.
This isn’t just a dessert—it’s a conversation piece, a centerpiece, and most importantly, an edible slice of chocolate heaven.
Ingredients Breakdown
Let’s break down what you’ll need and why each element plays a key role in creating this masterpiece:
For the Brownie Base:

18 whole Oreos – Layered on the bottom for a surprise crunch

1 family-size brownie mix (13×9) – A shortcut to rich, fudgy brownies
-
2 large eggs
-
1/4 cup water
-
1/2 cup oil – For that classic chewy texture
For the Marshmallow Frosting:
-
1/2 cup Crisco shortening – Adds structure and a smooth finish
-
1/2 cup butter – For flavor and creaminess
-
1 cup marshmallow creme – The secret to that fluffy, cloud-like texture
-
1 tsp vanilla – Enhances the sweetness and aroma
-
1 1/4 cup powdered sugar – Sweetens and stabilizes the frosting
-
10 Oreos, chopped – For topping and texture

2 Tbsp butter

2 Tbsp corn syrup – Adds shine and thickness
-
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Kitchen Equipment You’ll Need
To make this recipe smoothly, gather the following tools:
-
12-inch rimmed pizza pan
-
Large mixing bowl
-
Measuring cups and spoons
-
Rubber spatula
-
Stand mixer or hand mixer
-
Microwave-safe bowl
-
Knife and cutting board (for chopping Oreos)
-
Toothpick (to check brownie doneness)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Brownie Batter
In a large bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, water, and oil. Mix until fully incorporated.
2. Build the Base
Lightly grease your 12-inch pizza pan. Line the bottom with 18 whole Oreos, placing them evenly. Pour the brownie batter over the cookies and gently spread it to the edges.
3. Bake to Perfection
Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for about 25 minutes. Use a toothpick to check the center—moist crumbs are perfect, but no raw batter. Remove and let it cool completely.
4. Make the Frosting
Using a stand mixer, beat the shortening and butter until light and creamy. Mix in the marshmallow creme and vanilla. Gradually add powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy.
5. Frost and Top
Once the brownie has cooled, spread the frosting evenly over the top. Sprinkle the chopped Oreos across the surface.
6. Create the Fudge Drizzle
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine butter, corn syrup, and chocolate chips. Microwave for 40 seconds, stir until smooth. If needed, add hot water to thin the sauce slightly. Drizzle over the frosted brownie pizza.
7. Slice and Serve
Cut into wedges like a pizza and serve immediately. Get ready for compliments!
Tips and Tricks for Success
-
Cool completely before frosting to prevent melting.
-
Use high-quality chocolate chips for the fudge sauce—you’ll taste the difference.
-
Customize the toppings: Try mini M&Ms, crushed pretzels, or a drizzle of peanut butter.
-
Double the drizzle: Love fudge? Double the sauce recipe and serve some on the side for dipping.
-
Line the pan with parchment paper for easy removal and cleaner slices.
Storing Leftovers
If you’re lucky enough to have leftovers (though we doubt you will), here’s how to store them:
-
Refrigerator: Place slices in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
-
Freezer: Individually wrap slices and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature or microwave for 20–30 seconds to enjoy warm.
Note: The frosting may firm up in the fridge—let it sit out a few minutes before serving again.
Recipe Variations & Swaps
-
Gluten-Free: Use a gluten-free brownie mix and certified GF Oreos.
-
Vegan Version: Use egg replacers, vegan brownie mix, and plant-based butter and shortening.
-
Peanut Butter Twist: Add dollops of peanut butter before baking the brownie layer.
-
Mint Chocolate: Use mint Oreos and add peppermint extract to the frosting.
Perfect Pairings
This dessert is already rich, so it pairs well with:
-
Cold milk – Classic and refreshing
-
Coffee or espresso – Cuts through the sweetness
-
Vanilla bean ice cream – For extra indulgence
-
Fresh strawberries or raspberries – Adds brightness and contrast
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this a day ahead?
Yes! It actually tastes even better after sitting overnight in the fridge. Just let it come to room temp before serving.
Do I have to use a pizza pan?
Nope! You can use a round cake pan or even a 9×13 pan, but you may need to adjust baking time slightly.
Can I make it without marshmallow creme?
You can substitute with a basic buttercream frosting, but marshmallow fluff adds a unique, lighter texture.
How do I cut clean slices?
Chill the brownie pizza slightly before slicing. Use a hot knife (run under hot water and wiped dry) for neat edges.
Is it overly sweet?
It’s rich and sweet, but balanced by the creamy frosting and semi-sweet chocolate drizzle. Small slices go a long way!
