Ingredients
  

Brownies

  • 1 cup butter melted
  • ½ cup dark cocoa powder
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 24 holiday Oreo cookies

Cheesecake

  • 2 8-ounce packages cream cheese softened
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 1 ⅓ cup white peppermint baking chunks
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 batch peppermint whipped cream
  • Peppermint candy pieces

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 pan with foil. Spray it with nonstick baking spray.
  • Mix together the melted butter and cocoa powder.
  • Beat the eggs and sugar together. Add the vanilla, salt, and butter mixture and beat again.
  • Slowly add the flour and baking powder until mixed in. Spread in the bottom of the prepared pan.
  • Place the Oreo cookies on top of the batter side by side.
  • Using a clean bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until creamy. Add the yogurt and extracts and beat again.
  • Place the white peppermint chunks in a microwave safe bowl. Heat for 30 seconds and stir. If needed, heat an additional 15-20 seconds and stir again until creamy.
  • Slowly pour the melted chocolate into the cheesecake batter and beat until mixed in.
  • Add the eggs one at a time beating after each addition. Do not over beat the batter.
  • Press the Oreo cookies down into the brownie batter gently. Spoon the cheesecake batter slowly on top of the cookies. Spread the batter out and bake for 45-48 minutes. Do not over bake. Remove the pan from the oven and place on a cooling rack. After 5 minutes, use a butter knife to gently loosen the brownies from the edge of the foil. Let cool in the pan for 1 hour, then refrigerate until completely chilled.
  • Serve the brownies with the peppermint whipped cream and extra peppermint pieces. Makes 24 brownies.
