Ingredients
For Brownie
Layer:
- 2 large eggs
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 20 Double Stuf Oreos
- ½ cup + 2 Tablespoons flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 7 oz. quality semi-sweet chocolate-chopped
- 2 Tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
For
Cheesecake Layer:
- 1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg- slightly beaten
- 5–6 Oreo cookies-coarsely chopped
- 12 oz. cream cheese-softened
- ¼ cup + 2 Tablespoons sugar
Instructions
First, preheat
the oven to 350 ° F, line the bottom and sides of a 9 x 9 inch baking pan with
aluminum foil or parchment paper (leaving a overhang on all sides for easy
removal pan brownies), set aside.
Then, in a
medium saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the chopped chocolate and butter,
stirring constantly, until smooth. Leave to cool for 10 minutes.
In a small
bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder and salt, set aside.
Add ¾ cup
granulated sugar to the melted chocolate and whisk until well combined.
Add eggs
(one at a time), whisking well after each addition. Whisk the vanilla.
Gently fold
the mixture of dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture and pour into the
prepared pan, smooth the top.
Place the
Oreo cookies on the brownie layer. You will need 16 whole Oreos and 4 cut in
half to cover the brownie dough. Since the dough is too thick, you can gently
press the cookies to press them halfway into the dough.
To make the
cheesecake layer in a bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and
creamy. Stir in ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons sugar and vanilla extract. Add the beaten
egg and stir until well blended.
Pour the
cheesecake mixture over the Oreo layer and gently smooth the top.
Do not spread
the cheesecake mixture around the edges, leave the edge 1 / 3-1 / 2 inch
because the cold cheesecake burns easily.
Sprinkle
with chopped Oreo and bake 35-40 minutes (until brownies start to come off the
edges of the pan). Let cool on a wire rack for 1 hour, then cover and
refrigerate at least 2-3 hours.
Happy
Cooking Time.
