Ingredients
24 Oreo cookies, crushed
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
16 ounces full-fat cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
6 Oreo cookies, crushed for filling
4 Oreo cookies, crushed for topping
Instructions
1. Crush the Oreos into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin. Reserve 1/4 cup for topping.
2. Combine the remaining crushed cookies with melted butter until evenly mixed. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Chill in the fridge.
3. Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form and set aside.
4. Beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until creamy.
5. Gently fold in the whipped cream and 6 crushed Oreos into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
6. Pour the filling over the chilled crust and smooth the top. Sprinkle reserved Oreo crumbs over the top.
7. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, before serving.
Notes
Let cream cheese come to room temperature before mixing to avoid lumps.
Do not overwhip the cream or the texture will become grainy.
Use a springform pan for easiest slicing and best presentation.
