Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 30 whole Oreo cookies for crust
  • 8 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 24 oz cream cheese softened 1 hour
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups cold heavy cream
  • 20 whole Oreo cookies for filling, divided
  • 8 whole Oreo cookies for top, divided

Method
 

  1. **Crust.** Crush 30 Oreos into fine crumbs. Mix with melted butter. Press into a 9 inch springform pan. Chill 20 minutes.
  2. **Beat.** Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla 2 minutes until smooth and lump free.
  3. **Whip.** In a separate bowl whip cold cream to stiff peaks, 3 minutes.
  4. **Fold.** Gently fold whipped cream into cream cheese mixture in 3 additions.
  5. **Crush.** Roughly chop 15 Oreos into chunks (not crumbs). Crush remaining 5 Oreos fine. Fold both into the cheesecake filling.
  6. **Layer.** Spread filling over the crust and smooth the top. Chill 6 hours.
  7. **Top.** Crumble 4 Oreos over the top in chunky pieces. Press 4 whole Oreos vertically into the top edge as garnish before slicing.

Notes

Use full Oreos with the cream filling, not just the wafers, for the most authentic flavor. Soften cream cheese 1 full hour at room temp for a smooth lump free filling. Crush most Oreos fine but leave 1/2 cup chunky for visible pieces in the filling.
