Ingredients
Method
Bake the Brownies
- Prepare the boxed mix according to package directions. Bake in the recommended pan, cool completely, then cut or crumble into bite-sized pieces.
Make the Cheesecake Layer
- Beat the softened cream cheese with 1/3 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla until smooth and lump-free.
- Gently fold 1–2 cups of whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until evenly combined and airy.
Prep the Oreos
- Coarsely crush most of the Oreos by hand or in a zip-top bag with a rolling pin. Reserve several cookies for decorating.
Layer the Trifle
- In a trifle bowl or individual glasses, start with a layer of brownie pieces, spoon on the cheesecake mixture, and sprinkle crushed Oreos. Repeat layers until you reach the top.
Finish and Chill
- Top with remaining whipped cream and arrange reserved Oreo pieces. Chill for at least 2 hours or overnight so the cheesecake layer firms and flavors meld.
- Serve cold straight from the fridge.
Notes
Serve with coffee or espresso, or a tart fruit compote to cut sweetness. Store tightly covered in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
