INDIVIDUAL OREO RED VELVET CHEESECAKE

These are absolutely beautiful moist and delicious red velvet brownies! Perfect for red velvet cake lovers; adds a different twist to a traditional red velvet cake. This is a beautiful dessert perfect for Valentine's Day or for anybody who LOVES red velvet with oreo! I like this served the next day and slightly cold.

It was a hit with all my friends but i wasn't a big fan. i've already been asked to make them again. It's perfect when you want something a little different but familiar enough for everyone to try. Made these in small cupcake sizes so they would be easier to share at work.

Delightful dense brownies, beautiful appearance. This was my husbands Valentines gift. Yes, it's that good! Fair warning, don't overcook- this is one dish easy to dry out. They were pretty good, and like other reviewers said, they were better the next day. Mine came out drier than I would have liked; more like cake than a brownie. But all in all, I would made them again. VERY easy and I had everything on hand.
