Ingredients
- 24–28 Oreo Cookies (crushed for crust and filling)
- 5 tablespoons (70g) unsalted butter, melted
- 16 ounces (450g) cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
- 1 cup (240ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Oreo crust: Crush 18 Oreo cookies finely until they resemble coarse crumbs (about 1 1/2 cups / 150g). Mix the crumbs with 5 tablespoons (70g) of melted unsalted butter until evenly combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of your 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan. Chill in the fridge for about 10 minutes.
- Make the cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, beat 16 ounces (450g) of softened cream cheese with 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy, about 3-4 minutes with an electric mixer.
- Whip the heavy cream: In a separate chilled bowl, whip 1 cup (240ml) of cold heavy whipping cream with a pinch of salt until soft peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
- Combine the filling: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a rubber spatula. Then roughly crush the remaining 6-8 Oreo cookies and fold them into the batter evenly.
- Assemble and chill: Pour the filling over the chilled Oreo crust, spreading it evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
