How to Make Marquesa

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese (softened), sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy (about 3-5 minutes).
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted chocolate and cocoa powder until combined.
  4. Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the cream cheese mixture until just combined.
  5. Stir in the crushed Oreos until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. Pour the batter into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
  7. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is almost set. A slight jiggle is okay.
  8. Let the Marquesa cool completely on a wire rack before refrigerating for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight (24 hours for best results).
  9. Garnish with extra crushed Oreos and a drizzle of chocolate sauce before serving (optional).
