Ingredients
Scale
1 1/2 cups Oreo cookie crumbs (about 30 cookies)
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup crushed Oreo cookies, for topping
Instructions
Mix Oreo cookie crumbs and melted butter thoroughly. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Chill the crust while you prepare the filling.
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until just combined.
In a separate chilled bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream mixture into the cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain. Do not overmix.
Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the chilled crust.
Cover the cheesecake loosely with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to set completely.
Before serving, sprinkle the top with crushed Oreo cookies. Release the springform side carefully.
Notes
Chilling time is non-negotiable for a firm texture. Plan ahead.
Use full-fat cream cheese for the best structure.
If you prefer a firmer set, you can add one teaspoon of unflavored gelatin dissolved in 1/4 cup hot water to the cream cheese mixture before folding in the whipped cream.
