Classic New York-style cheesecake swirled with Oreo cookies for a creamy and indulgent dessert.

# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ Crust

01 - 16 Oreo sandwich cookies, finely crushed
02 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

→ Cheesecake Filling

03 - 3 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
04 - 3/4 cup granulated sugar
05 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
06 - 3 large eggs
07 - 1/2 cup sour cream

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper and lightly coat the sides with nonstick spray.
02 - Combine finely crushed Oreos with melted butter and mix until uniform. Firmly press mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan.
03 - Using an electric mixer, blend the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy in a large mixing bowl.
04 - Add granulated sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese; beat until thoroughly incorporated.
05 - Add eggs individually, mixing just until combined after each addition to maintain a smooth texture.
06 - Gently fold in sour cream into the batter, ensuring an even consistency.
07 - Gently incorporate coarsely chopped Oreos, avoiding overmixing to maintain texture.
08 - Pour cheesecake batter over the crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
09 - Bake for 55–60 minutes, or until center is just set with slightly puffed edges.
10 - Turn oven off, crack door open, and allow cheesecake to cool inside for 1 hour to minimize cracking.
11 - Transfer cheesecake to refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
12 - Garnish with whipped cream and extra crushed Oreos, slice, and serve as desired.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature to achieve a silky-smooth filling.
