Ingredients
- 30 Oreos (with filling), crushed
- 8 tbsp butter, melted
- 8 oz semi-sweet baking chocolate, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, divided
- 24 oz cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 3/4 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup full-fat sour cream
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3 tbsp heavy whipping cream
Instructions
-
Prepare the crust: Grease a 9-inch springform pan and line with parchment paper. Crush Oreos in a food processor and mix with melted butter. Press mixture into the pan and chill in the fridge.
-
Make the filling: Melt the semi-sweet baking chocolate with 1/4 cup of the heavy cream, let cool to room temperature. In a separate bowl, whip the remaining cream until stiff peaks form. Beat the cream cheese until smooth, then combine with the cooled chocolate. Add powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and sour cream. Gently fold in whipped cream and pour over crust. Refrigerate overnight.
-
Make the ganache: Melt the chocolate chips with 3 tablespoons of heavy cream until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly before pouring over the chilled cheesecake.
-
Chill to set: Refrigerate until the ganache sets and the cheesecake firms up.
-
Serve: Slice, serve, and enjoy. Store leftovers in the fridge.
Notes
- If you prefer a different crust, substitute Oreos with graham crackers or chocolate cookies.
- For extra indulgence, add mini chocolate chips or crumbled cookies to the filling.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings or fresh berries for added flavor and texture.
