Instructions
Brownie Layer
Line an 8x8 inch (20cm) square pan with baking paper and preheat oven to 160c (320F).
Roughly chop the oreos.
Place butter and sugar in a microwave safe bowl and place in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, whisk after every 30 seconds until the batter is glossy, this should take around 2-3 times in the microwave.
Add in the cocoa powder and whisk well.
Set aside to cool slightly.
Add in each egg 1 at a time, mixing well between each addition.
Add in vanilla and mix well.
Add in the flour and salt and fold in gently until it is just combined.
Pout brownie batter into prepared pan and sprinkle over half the Oreos in an even layer.
Cheesecake Layer
Place the cream cheese and sugar in a bowl. Whisk until smooth.
Add in the sour cream and vanilla, egg and mix well until thick and creamy.
Spread the cheesecake layer gently over the brownie layer. Sprinkle on the rest of the Oreos.
Place in the oven for 20-25 minutes. The brownies are done when the cheesecake layer is starting to come away from the sides and the centre has a slight wobble.
Let brownies cool down completely before removing them from the pan and cutting.
Notes
Tips:Don't over bake, the cheesecake should be coming off the sides and the centre should have a slight wobble.Cut brownies with a hot knife for clean squares.Storage:Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 5-6 days. Remove from the fridge 20-30 minutes before serving so they can be at room temperature.
