Amazing and fudgy brownies with oreos and a delicious cheesecake center!
We see a lot of pumpkin and apple recipes this time of the year. It was time to take a break from the pumpkin and shake things up and make some brownies. We love having brownies on Sunday. It has been a tradition since I was little. Nice warm brownies for dessert with a scoop of ice-cream. But these aren’t just any old brownies. These are one of the best brownies that I have ever had!
Do you like oreos, brownies, and cheesecake? If you answered yes then these will rock your world! Picture a fudgy brownie with oreos baked right inside. Then you take a bite and there is a pocket of creamy cheesecake in the center. Yeah. Best.Brownies.Ever. The entire family loved these brownies. And how can you go wrong with this brownie combo? You can’t! And you need to give them a try for yourself!

I had been craving something with oreo/cheesecake/chocolate and lo and behold came across this recipe. Super easy to follow plus all the ingredients are available in anyones pantry – the brownies tasted even better chilled!
OMG these look absolutely amazing! Wish I could grab one right out of the screen!
Who can turn down ore’s and brownies?! These are beautiful and totally tempting even at 7 am!
These are so dangerous and there is no way I would be able to keep them around in my house for will-power purposes! YUM! pinned 🙂
Yes! It’s time for brownies again 🙂 I love apples and pumpkins too, but I feel like chocolate gets neglected! These look amazing.
