24 Oreo Cookies (for crust and filling)
2 cups Cream Cheese (softened)
3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
1/2 cup Sour Cream
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
3 large Eggs
6 tbsp Unsalted Butter (melted)
1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream (for optional whipped topping)
2 tbsp Powdered Sugar (for whipped topping)
Prepare the Crust: Crush Oreo cookies into fine crumbs. Mix with melted butter and press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
Make the Filling: Beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar, blend in sour cream and vanilla extract. Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed. Gently fold in chopped Oreo cookies.
Assemble and Bake: Pour the filling over the crust and bake at 325°F (163°C) for about 1 hour, until the center is set but slightly jiggly.
Cool and Chill: Let the cheesecake cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Prepare the Topping (Optional): Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread over chilled cheesecake and garnish with extra Oreos.
Chill Time: The cheesecake requires at least 4 hours of chilling, but overnight is ideal for the best texture.
Mini Cheesecakes: For individual servings, adjust baking time and use a muffin tin.
Variations: Add a chocolate ganache topping or use no-bake cheesecake filling for a twist.
