## Ingredients

- 270 g Oreo cookies
- 100 g salted butter, melted
- 2 Tbsp black cocoa powder

- 180 g dark brown sugar
- 85 g golden caster sugar
- 3 large eggs, room temp
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 Tbsp plain flour
- 1 pinch flaked salt
- 300 g mascarpone, room temp
- 200 ml double cream
- 120 g icing sugar

## Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 160°C Fan. Line the base of a 23cm springform tin.
2. Blitz the Oreo cookies into crumbs in a zip-top bag using a rolling pin.
3. Stir the cookie crumbs through melted butter and black cocoa powder.
4. Press the mixture firmly into the lined springform tin.
5. Chill the crust while preparing the filling.
6. Pour Guinness into a small pan and simmer until reduced to about 80ml.
7. Remove from heat, add chopped dark chocolate, and stir until melted and glossy. Let cool slightly.
8. In a stand mixer, beat cream cheese, mascarpone, dark brown sugar, and golden caster sugar until smooth.
9. Add eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract, plain flour, and a pinch of flaked salt.
10. Whisk in the cooled Guinness-chocolate mixture until fully combined.
11. Pour the cheesecake mixture into the prepared tin.
12. Tap the tin to release any bubbles.
13. Place the tin into a water bath (wrapped tightly with foil to prevent water leakage).
14. Bake for 90-95 minutes until the edges are set but the center still has a wobble.
15. Chill the cheesecake overnight in the fridge.
16. Whip all the topping ingredients (mascarpone, double cream, icing sugar, vanilla extract, and salt) together until very thick and spoonable.
17. Spread generously over the chilled cheesecake.
18. Slice and serve the Chocolate Guinness Cheesecake.
