Oreo Cheesecake
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 24 Oreo cookies
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 32 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup Oreo cookie pieces
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a food processor, pulse 24 Oreo cookies until finely ground. Add melted butter and pulse until combined.
- Press the Oreo crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, creating an even layer. Place in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
- In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the sour cream until fully combined.
- Gently fold in the Oreo cookie pieces, then pour the filling over the chilled crust.
- Place the springform pan on a large piece of foil and fold the foil up the sides to prevent any water from leaking into the cheesecake.
- Place the springform pan in a large roasting pan and fill the roasting pan with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the springform pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
- Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
- Remove the cheesecake from the water bath and foil, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
