Ingredients
Scale
Cheesecake Mixture
- 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 10 standard Oreo cookies, finely chopped
Crust
- 25 Oreo cookies
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
Whipped Cream Topping
- ½ cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 25 mini Oreos and Oreo crumbs, for decorating
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 325°F. Line an 8×8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.
- Make Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy. Add granulated sugar, sour cream, and vanilla extract, beating until fully combined. Add eggs one at a time, stirring gently by hand until incorporated. Fold in the finely chopped Oreos carefully.
- Prepare Crust: In a food processor, pulse 25 Oreo cookies into fine crumbs. Add melted butter and process again until mixture is evenly combined and crumbly.
- Assemble Base: Press the Oreo crumb and butter mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan, creating a firm crust layer.
- Add Cheesecake Layer: Spread the prepared cheesecake mixture evenly over the Oreo crust in the baking pan.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the center is just set and the top changes from a wet sheen to a matte finish but remains slightly wobbly.
- Cool and Chill: Let the cheesecake cool to room temperature for about 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to firm up completely.
- Make Whipped Cream: In a bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and whip until stiff peaks appear.
- Cut and Decorate: Use the parchment paper to lift the cheesecake from the pan and place on a cutting board. Cut into 1 to 1½ inch squares. Pipe or spoon whipped cream onto each square and top with a mini Oreo cookie and some Oreo crumbs for garnish if desired.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the cheesecake filling.
- Cool the cheesecake completely before slicing to achieve clean cuts.
- Use parchment paper with an overhang to easily lift the cheesecake out of the pan.
- For firmer bites, chill overnight rather than just 4 hours.
- Feel free to substitute mini Oreos with chopped regular Oreos for topping if needed.
