    In a small bowl: add blackberries, sugar and lemon juice. Let sit for 20 minutes. Use a fork/masher and smash until you release most of the liquid from the blackberries. 

    Add cornstarch and mix everything together. Use a fine mesh to strain the liquid from the blackberries. Discard the blackberries solids. Freeze the sauce for 15-20 minutes.

    Use a food processor to crumble the Oreos. Add butter then continue to mix the Oreos.

    Use a toothpick to make cross cutting swirls to enhance presentation.

    Place the pan in the middle of the oven rack. Bake for 30-35 minutes (mine took ~30 minutes).
