So, let’s hop over to brownies!! I am in love with brownies and these brownies we made for this recipe are from scratch and are amazing! You can use boxed as well, but homemade brownies…*sigh* I am in love with these brownies…what can I say?
The kids loved the Oreos on the top and dipped them in the whipped cream, while the rest of it was dreamily devoured by adults. It’s a fun, delicious dessert!
I had debated if I should put 1/2 cookies or whole ones on top, and I definitely made the right choice. Go whole Oreos! YUM!

OMG Chocolate Oreo Cheesecake Brownie Trifle Tips
- If you use Cool Whip, the whipped cream on top of the trifle will not look as pretty as the real whipped cream. So, you could just do the real whipped cream on top for the swirls. Any way you do it will be fine.
- Also, I said to add the cookies on top before you serve if you want them crunchy, up to you!
- You can also make the whipped cream for the whipped cream swirls on top at the time as well. I found doing it later, I could cover my trifle much easier with saran wrap. It’s not necessary to add saran wrap or seal if you add your swirls as the directions call out, but if you have any leftover, you need to make sure it’s sealed or covered with saran wrap.
- To show off the layers using a straight-sided glass dish is best.
- If you do not have a trifle dish, get creative, Use a glass bowl or make individual trifles in wine glasses, tumblers, or jam jars.
BTW…as you probably guessed, this Oreo Cheesecake Brownie Trifle dessert is addicting. I think it’s better, even a day or two later, because the Oreos are more softened. I hope you try it! It’s perfect for every holiday and special event you could ever think of.
Trifles are such a wonderful dessert to impress for the holidays and that’s awesome, because this Oreo Cheesecake Brownie Trifle will feed a small army! 🙂
