These fudgy homemade oreo cheesecake brownies are filled with an oreo cookie filling and then topped with a cheesecake swirl.
These brownies combine some of my favorite desserts into one heavenly dessert.

I took these to a super bowl party along with these Chiefs Sugar Cookies and needless to say, I will be making them again soon.
There are a couple steps involved in making these, but it comes together surprisingly fast. Just make sure to allow enough baking time as these are thick and will take at least 50 minutes to bake.
“Better than Boxed” brownie mix
I have a confession to make. I love boxed brownie mixes. They are my absolute favorite. As much as I tried, I just couldn’t make a homemade brownie that I liked better than the boxed mix…until now. These brownies are everything a good brownie should be:
- fudgy
- gooey
- chewy
- perfectly sweet
How to make oreo cheesecake brownies
Start by making the brownie base. Just cream the butter and sugars, add the egg and vanilla, then all of your dry ingredients. Mix until just combined (don’t over mix!). Then spread ⅔ of the batter into a greased 9 x 13 baking dish. Top with Oreos and give them a little push down into the batter.
Make the cheesecake swirl
Then mix up your cheesecake batter and spread over the top. Remember when using cream cheese to make sure that your cream cheese is VERY soft or you will wind up with lumpy cheesecake. Not good.
Take the leftover brownie batter and spoon over the top.
Swirl it all around with a knife.
Bake at 350 for around 50 minutes. Don’t over bake as these are best on the gooey side so you get that perfect “fudgy” brownie!
Enjoy!
