For the Filling:
-
24 oz cream cheese, softened (3 packages)

½ cup granulated sugar (96g)
-
3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
-
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
-
3 cups dry brownie mix (375g)

-
3 teaspoons vegetable oil
-
4 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
For the Whipped Topping:
-
1 cup heavy whipping cream
-

Instructions
-
Make the crust: In a medium bowl, mix the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter until fully combined. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Chill while preparing the filling.
-
Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add heavy cream, vanilla, and dry brownie mix. Beat again until fluffy and well combined.
-
Assemble: Spread the filling evenly over the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
-
Make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the brownie mix, oil, and cream until smooth. Drizzle over the chilled cheesecake.
-
Make the whipped topping: Whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Pipe or spread over the glazed cheesecake.
-
Serve and enjoy: Slice, serve, and get ready for lots of compliments!
Notes
-
Use any dry brownie mix—store-bought or homemade (make sure it’s heat-treated if not labeled safe to eat raw).
-
Chilling overnight gives the cheesecake a firmer texture and cleaner slices.
-
You can sprinkle mini chocolate chips, cookie crumbs, or chopped nuts on top for extra crunch.
-
For perfect slices, dip your knife in hot water and wipe clean between cuts.
-
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze (without whipped topping) for up to 2 months.
