Cinnamon Roll Base
- 8 oz Cinnamon Graham Crackers, crushed
- 4 tbsp Unsalted Butter, melted and cooled
- 1 tbsp Granulated Sugar
Cookies & Cream Filling
- 24 oz Norman's Kosher Cholov Yisroel Cream Cheese, room temperature
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 4 Large Eggs
- 1 tbsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Chopped Oreo Cookies (about 10 cookies)
Fudge Brownie Topping
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
- 4 oz Unsweetened Chocolate, chopped
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 2 Large Eggs
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- To make the crust, combine the crushed cinnamon graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes.
- To make the filling, beat the cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Stir in the chopped Oreos. Pour the filling into the prepared crust.
- Bake the cheesecake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly wobbly.
- While the cheesecake is baking, make the brownie topping. Melt the butter and chocolate together in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from the heat and whisk in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract.
- After the cheesecake has baked for 30-35 minutes, remove it from the oven and pour the brownie topping over the cheesecake, spreading it out evenly. Return the cheesecake to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the brownie topping is set.
- Allow the cheesecake to cool to room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before serving.
